Ghirardelli Chocolate Squares
I can't resist them! I love love love the dark chocolate squares with a passion, and just discovered that the mint squares are equally delicious.

Our building management company thinks I should have to work out seven days a week, apparently. We just got four boxes of candy, with too many of these tasty little fat builders in them.

3. I ate a whole bag of the 60% ones Saturday night watching
"Fingersmith." Dark chocolate and British chicks kissing... Heaven.

9. No! It's Victorian English slang for pickpocket/thief... however

There was some of the errr.... other fingersmithing going on. In a very BBC production way of course.

13. Ha! No -- but good the same
It's based (very closely) on the Sarah Waters' novel. It's very Dickensian. She's the author who wrote "Tipping the Velvet." Even non lesbians can like it!

And he gives proceeds from sales, to his charity.

15. Also, the Droste Pastilles...
Even in Switzerland, Droste (from Holland) is very highly regarded for its dark chocolate.

14. I just finished one of the caramel squares ones...
I have a friend whose husband works as a distributor... guess what's stocked in her garage? She sent me a package last week (shoes for my daughter), and stuffed the empty space in the box with.... chocolate! :bounce:
