Some people would give their sweetheart the moon and the stars. Goofballs that we are, the equivalent for My Favorite Guy and I is the keys to the chocolate factory. We have a particular one in mind that wouldn’t require us to relocate to inherit, own or manage it. We have our fantasies all ironed out just in case they happen in real life. Why be trite. The star that everyone else is swinging on would be a bit crowded.
Apparently, for a $175.00 set up fee, you too can trick your friends that you indeed own a chocolate factory, or bestow elegant, tasteful chocolate business gifts to your clients. Somehow if your other fantasy of being as successful as Bill Gates comes true, the question of whether you have a food handling license would probably come up if you decided to go your own way, actually make truffles for 5,000 people and stuffed them into foldable boxes from Joann’s Fabric.
The $175.00 includes the set up of your logo to print on golden-sheened boxes. After that, its all up to you, you just purchase as many different boxes from the tiny to the huge. Of course, you wouldn’t pay $175.00 if you only wanted one box. You would need to order 150 boxes right away, or at least in a 12 month period. If you do not take delivery in that window, a $2.00 storage fee per box will be accrued and the rest will be delivered directly to my house. Not really. But I can keep dreaming, can I?
Do you think custom chocolate products will impress your friends and clients? Or would you do it for your own vanity?
Christmas has been officially over, which leads the mind to stray about chocolate again. Valentine’s Day is coming up, and though I don’t mean to rub it in the noses of folks who are not affianced, it clearly is a moment of overabundant chocolate choices that persons of any status that are true chocolate lovers can appreciate. You just have to really watch out for all the waxy novelty goods.
Heartburn…
I am so rude. I couldn’t help but listening in to a conversation while waiting in line.

Thanks for the post from Al Mills
