We were talking about it last week, and I just got an email that the After Valentine's Day sale is on at Godiva, up to 50% off while supplies last.
I know not everyone likes Godiva, but just thought I'd share in case there's someone who does.

shoot - figures that the after sale would occur just when Buffett tickets are being released! <sigh>. Guess that means I'll only be able to buy one bag of chocolates if I want to attempt to get to one of the April shows!

I only like boxed chocolates if they come with a road map.

I have never been a big fan of Hershey's milk chocolate-in fact it often seems to have a bitter taste to it.
There is an interesting book called The Emporers of Chocolate, about the history of the Mars and Hershey chocolate companies, and it talks about the bitter taste, designed for the American palette.
Love good quality dark chocolate-yum!!!!!!!!

Actually, I've found that a Really good quality dark chocolate doesn't have that bitter aftertaste...it just has a different, richer taste. But that could just be me.
