yesterday i recieved the most wonderful piece of snail mail by us post -- a chocolate wrapper!

the lovely owner of bridge kitchenware sent me the label of her favorite cooking chocolate. and i was surprised to discover where she buys it! the bar is the A&P grocery store house brand, "master choice." it's a private label good actually made by the schmitz-scholl family in germany. they've been making fine chocolate since 1867, but nowadays specialize in house brands.

in a little note so nicely written on the back of her business card, ms. bridge remarks, "this is excellent for baking!" and she should know!

i'm just thrilled to pieces -- i can't tell you how much i treasure this little wrapper. it inspires me to ask all of you, dear readers, to send me images of your favorite chocolate! in this digital age, gifs or jpgs would probably be best, but if you, like the adorable ms. bridge, are a devoted fan of snail mail, go to it! i'll post links, images, whatever i can. let me thank you once again for writing and by stopping by. . .
