In 2006, my daughter bet I couldn't eat a different chocolate each day for a year. I enjoyed that year so much that, after 17+ years, I'm still eating a different chocolate every day. Happily, even after 6,200+ chocolates, there are still many more to try. Thank you to all who continue to be part of this global adventure.

Welcome to Chocolate and Cheese Week!
We kicked off this theme week with a Smokey Blue Truffle (pictured to the right - in missing man formation) -- blue cheese with a touch of toasted almonds. This combination might seem bit strange; but these truffles were good, and might pair well with red wine.
