I'm trying to work more in watercolour.<br />Did you have a good try at testing the chocolate too?...all in the name of work of course! I've never understood how American's can call what Hershey's produce 'chocolate' - to me it has such a bizarre taste. But then I suppose it has to do with what you grow up with - plenty of people don't think 'Cadbury's' is proper chocolate, because of the milk content - but it's something of a British institution.<br />I'll definitely add the museum to my list of places to visit next time we visit Paris, thank you.<br />Sarah. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12952143061445696814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-74502530327818886262013-10-04T02:17:11.984-04:002013-10-04T02:17:11.984-04:00R U kidding?
