Chocolate Walk–Delectable & Decadent – Lakewood Observer

Posted under Uncategorized

I continue to build my ‘Traveling chocolate list” and today I’ve found a fantastic chocolate walk. Better yet this celebration of chocolate is on my birthday – how fitting is that! Strolling through the street and sampling an array of chocolate treats – I could think of nothing better. If you’re in the area head on down and let me know all about it. Maybe next year for me here in Melbourne, Australia.

I’ve begun realizing that there are people celebrating chocolate in some way and form almost every single day of the year. I am all for this. A true believer that chocolate should be celebrated. You could literally travel the world, exploring and indulging in one chocolate festival after the other. Now there’s a good idea for a traveling holiday.

Posted under Uncategorized

I should be sending this one directly to my husband. He has always been a chocolate fan and over the last few years has found a great appreciation for a nice cold beer, especially come Friday night. Might be an interesting one to try, I wonder if it will live up to the expectations.
