Here's a beautiful newly designed chocolate bar from Valrhona for all of you for helping me find an apartment in Paris in October!!!

And even more Valrhona chocolate bars for you.

I went to the annual NASFT FANCY FOOD Show at the Javits yesterday to do research for you all...

Life can be tough as a food-bloggeur-journalist. I am forced to try and taste many hot chocolates like this multi-prize winner, CHUAO...

And CHOC-O-LAT, you stir a block of chocolate in your hot milk for 1 minute et voila! Miam

I am praying that the US Customs lets this French hot chocolat, Castelanne, into the US s.v.p. Green card coming up!!!

Pralus, a wonderful French chocolatier was at the show

No wonder French women are thin. Their tasting samples. Are you supposed to enhale?...ahem

Meanwhile over at Ciao Bella, happiness was...

Any and every flavor you wanted.

There were cheeses galore to taste from around the world too...

And salt of course - this fleur de sel Guerande from Brittany...

You're always on the lookout for new trends and tastes.
Bacon salt with no bacon!

Norwegian water in a cardboard box = green water!

Tons of gluten-free and organic products were present. Here is a tea that goes beyond organic - it's biodynamic!!

Remember good old fashioned animal crackers?

Have the animals become couch potatoes?

And finally Eiffel Tower fromage! adorable...

BONJOUR LUNDI!!!
