Chocolate & Cheer
Sometimes you need a jump start on the holidays, and this year was no exception. I'm not talking about shopping, but the gathering of good friends and good food part. Just before Thanksgiving we hosted a large party for about 70 guests. We served Cocktails and Chocolate. Guests who hadn't been to one of our tastings before were surprised to see that all the chocolates were handmade.
All in all, there were about thirty different chocolates for folks to sample. Along with associated spirit pairing. We had lots of shot glasses for folks to use. Thank goodness folks helped wash up!
We recovered from the excesses of chocolate just in time for the onslaught of Thanksgiving. Hoping your holiday table was filled with good food and surrounded by good friends and family.
