Truffle making is actually quite tedious...we spent four hours rolling and dipping and sprinking more than 200 little balls of chocolate. I actually prefer cooking yummy things like soups and savory dishes to playing with chocolate. Which is good, I guess, because soups are just a little bit more healthy than truffles! :-) Kati: There will be truffles brought home for everyone. That was most of the reason that I wanted to make them (well, that and because truffles are delicious balls of chocolately goodness!). I just hope they survive the trip home! But no, that won't be your Christmas present, because I'm thoroughly excited about what your Christmas present actually is that I won't let you rob me of my chance to be excited about your present by making me give you boring ol' truffles instead. Sorry. :-) And I have a feeling that Tay giggled at the picture because being covered in chocolate is just about anybody's idea of a <i>really good time</i>. I'm actually surprised that I didn't have more chocolate all over me by the time I was done with the evening! Tay will definitely get a truffle, by the way, if only for being such a hockey superstar! Give her a big hug for me and tell her that I'm quite proud of her. I hope that I get to watch a game or two when I'm home! Michael: ha!

Tay & I are sitting here drooling, and Tay LOVED the picture of you with the messy, chocolaty hands. She giggled. ;) I know what you can give me for christmas!!! Really & Truly! ;) Oh, and Tay had a shut-out today in her game. It was 8 to 0. Granted her team (of 10&under girls) was playing against a team of 6 through 8 year olds, but still... ;) TTYS. Your older sis. Are you bringing me some for Christmas???? Tay & I are sitting here drooling, and Tay LOVED the picture of you with the messy, chocolaty hands.
