The little devil on your shoulder? Yeah, that's me.

Because who else would tempt you with chocolate when you are trying to stick to your New Year’s resolutions?

‘Cause this post here, is actually… a giveaway! That’s right, I’m giving away chocolate! Even better, custom-made chocolate boxes.

Let me elaborate. In fact, let me start from the beginning. Ok, not the very beginning, you know, just the beginning of this story (Heck, if I keep going like this it will be a miracle if I ever finish this post, and even more of a miracle if anyone actually reads it, instead of going “oh, forget it!” and closing the window. Or tab, if you are on Firefox).

So: You all know how I have a love affair with chocolate. (If my husband is reading this: I am sorry honey, but you must have known on some level. Or many. And you hold some of the blame, since you brought me to Switzerland! For God’s sakes.)
Well, as a self-proclaimed chocoholic, I obviously couldn’t resist the chance to sample some gourmet chocolate. I have a fairly discerning palate when it comes to chocolate, no Hershey’s or candy bars for me. Yuck. Lindt? Sure.

So imagine my surprise when I actually enjoyed the chocolate I was offered. A lot.

That chocolate, my friends, was from See’s Candies. They have lots of different kinds of chocolate praline, and you can customize your box to include the ones you like best. How cool is that?

Another cool thing I found on their website: the possibility to organize “chocolate fundraisers” selling See’s Candies, and make up to 50% on sales – much better than that pain of a project we did when Sarah was in second grade, where I spent almost 20 hours scanning drawings and creating a graphic “collage” to print on dishtowels. But that’s a story for another time.

Right now, if you want to enter the giveaway, all you have to do is post a comment here, telling me which of the flavors and fillings sounds most irresistible to you (good luck picking just one!).
