Chocolat

A quick post to keep up the momentum of blogging before heading to Paris tomorrow- today my flatmate and I headed to the Parc Des Expositons (for those in Glasgow, a bit like the SECC) for a sort of fair thing which was all about one particular topic- chocolate! Heaven, right? It actually cost 5 euros to get in (or 4 euros if you haven't lost the voucher your flatmate gave you, like I did...) which is quite expensive considering it was just a bunch of stalls selling various chocolate based products and something called a 'show' which was in fact an hour long cookery demonstration. It was pretty good in terms of chocolate samples though, and I got to drink hot chocolate made from a real lump of chocolate on a stick. Oh and there was a sample of the 'chocolate tofu' cookies made in the cookery demo which was admittedly devine. I also have the answer to the question, 'can one get sick of eating chocolate at 11.30 in the morning and it's sadly yes.

We also got free entry to the homes exhibition which would have been great if I'd been looking to replace my stained glass or my jacuzzi...

Nevertheless an interesting morning!
