Sampling Session: Sweets and Bubblies for your Valentine
12-3 pm Free
Looking for that last minute treat for your sweetie? We will be pouring from a selection of sparkling wines and sampling our best treats. Taste it first yourself so your Valentine will be sure to be satisfied."
I'm making it a date with the DH Thursday night event and checking out Friday's sampling for possibilities for the weekend.
New Season's chocolate: didn't like the coconut-curry chocolate but the chili and cherries was good! I liked the toffee and almond milk chocolate. Brandon liked the chai choclate too.
I didn't see the coconut curry chocolate, but I got to New Seasons after 4pm today, so not sure if anything had run out. The chai chocolate was yummy, and I like the holland mints and the other mint and chocolate bar.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking of checking out the chocolate fest at whole foods as well :) and the Fri. event sounds fun (I like my wine to have bubbles!)
The curry flavor was so strong I asked for something to take away the flavor. They gave me a bit of the chocolate-mint and I never tasted the mint over the curry. Oh my!
ReplyDeleteI like sweet wines, not dry. Wine coolers work, don't they often have bubbles? I'm going to try for noon-ish on Friday.
Are you going on Thursday? I think this sounds like fun!!
ReplyDeleteYup! Brandon and I are going! I put it on his calendar and everything. I'll meet him there and we'll do that and probably pick up dinner too.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a nice inexpensive 'date' option. ;^) I hope we get to see you and Owen there too!
