Photoessay #2044 - Whetstone Chocolates

I noticed a chocolate place right near where we stayed in St. Augustine. A building next door looked like a factory. A sign out front said "tours today'. I'm sold. I'm on vacation, why not a tour of a chocolate factory. Like everything in St. Augustine, it cost money. I was completely prepared to go by myself. But Dennis wanted to go. Great tour and lecture on the health benefits of chocolate. Hey, you don't have to convince me. Like most women, I adore chocolate. We got to go into the factory part where the older chocolatiers worked. Apparently the son of the founders, an engineer, designed a lot of the equipment. Great quality chocolate, don't you love the colors in the shell assortment? We bought a small box. They make everything themselves and say that they buy from small organic growers.

 I'll buy more! I'm ready sign on!
