This is my birthday weekend and my best friend sent me what appeared to be a box of Seattle Chocolates truffles. That is, she used them as a kind of packing material around the presents she sent. Aren't they pretty?The bag the truffles came in says: "What happiness tastes like."
Truth in advertising.
I have long been a fan of Seattle Chocolates, my favorites being their smooooth mint and milk chocolate flavors. When I lived in Seattle, my favorite hostess gift for friends outside Washington State was a collection of truffles in a Celebrate! box or one shaped like a ferry boat. Always a big hit!
But since moving to Montana, I'd forgotten how much I like these truffles. Right now I am luxuriating in flavors like peanut butter, coconut macaroon (they didn't put enough of these in this mix!), strawberry creme, blackberry creme, and rainier cherry. I still have at least 10 flavors to try.
Aren't birthdays wonderful? Aren't friends who send you chocolate to celebrate with even more wonderful!
