Gourmet Chocolates for Pink Saturday and The Color Carnival

A most delightful part of any holiday in my estimation is being the recipient of good chocolate. My husband and sons acquitted themselves admirably in this task for Mother's Day last weekend, when I received a colorful assortment of chocolates from Lake Champlain, Vermont, and a Vosges gourmet chocolate bar with Goji berries, pink Himalayan salt and 41% cacao. (Tres delish.)

Many thanks to Beverly, host of Pink Saturday, Martha, host of The Color Carnival, and to you for your visit. I send my best for a wonderful week whether you prefer it salty or sweet.
