on saturday morning, we all met up at dr erickson's house and headed off to the salon du chocolat! it was a massive chocolate fair that lasted for 5 days. i didn't really know what to expect...but i was so pleasantly surprised!
inside there were hundreds of booths, all selling chocolate. each booth had something different. there were chocolate pops, chocolate bars, hot chocolate, chocolate fountains, chocolate pillows, chocolate cookies, chocolate chocolate chocolate.
there were all different kinds of chocolate. chocolate from around the world, chocolate with special ingredients, vegan chocolate...you get the idea.
it was fun sampling things. i loved that part. i also bought some specialty chocolate! delish!
i loved it because you could see just how prevelant and important chocolate is in the french culture. i mean, they had a 5 day fair celebrating and promoting it, for heaven's sakes! it also showed me that chocolate is a huge part of cultures all around the world. i loved that one delicious food can bring together people from all walks of life. it just goes to show you that good food can unite the world :) cheesy? yes. do i regret saying that? pas du tout. || not at all.
i wish i could upload photos to show you how great it was! i swear i'm working on fixing that. it's just taking forever to figure it all out. sorry!
