Jo Blogz: Lovely Day in Town

March 11, 2010 in Chocolate by admin | No comments

chocolate box

I had a lovely day yesterday. I did my stretch class which made me feel, well, stretched. Afterwards my friend (who happens to be the my stretch teacher too) drove us into town for some fun. We visited Anna Valentine at her studio. It is located in one of those really pretty Mews streets that are tucked away in London, just off Marlybone Lane. Having seen them at the fashion show a couple of weeks ago, it was great to see the detailing and fabrics up close.

We then visited Rococo Chocolates to collect my winning box of chocolates. Rococo chocolate is delicious and the packaging lovely. I need to take a picture quickly to post as the chocolates themselves seem to be evaporating. I have no idea where they are going…

We then had a lovely lunch with maybe just a few bubbles… and a mooch along Marlybone High Street into the VERY nice shops. Although I was tired when I got home and went to bed very early last night, it was great to be out. To look at lovely things. To laugh. And live.

I have made my choice of competition winner for the lovely box of Rococo chocolates:-
heart box
There were over 50 entries, at different posts and/or sites and we had some very good answers. But there was one outstanding response – she wasn’t sure she wanted to enter – didn’t want to get the sympathy vote. I told her not to be ridiculous. Sympathy votes work well at times like this and so, the prize goes to my lovely friend who is having to go through yet another round of chemotherapy, her winning response to my question:

“You know you’re in love when”….

is:-

“You know when you are in love when… you can hardly move, you can’t think, you can’t function but something in you tells you to keep going through the storm – despite the tears – for you are in love with life itself xx
