Today was Day #2 of Chocolate and Cherry Theme Week.  I opened a colorful bag of Jelly Belly jelly beans, and started looking for chocolate and cherry beans. These bags, containing 40 possible flavors, were handed out to our group after a factory tour at the Jelly Belly plant and visitor center -- located at One Jelly Belly Lane, in Fairfield, CA.

After getting rid of (eating) a few stray root beer and cinnamon beans (that looked a little like chocolate and cherry beans), and sampling a few chocolate and cherry jelly beans in a one mouthful "recipe," I also enjoyed some Jelly Belly chocolate covered almonds purchased during the same trip.
