QotD: Think Global, Buy Local
Do you buy products made locally? Is there anything made in your area that you love?
Oh, boy, is there! Grandpa Joe's Chocolates. They're made by some lovely people we've come to love who have a wonderful gift store, Rosewood Farms, just down the road. They use recipies from his grandfather, who went to professional candy making school in the early 1900's. The results are absolutely, mouthwateringly wonderful. Godiva doesn't come anywhere near these, people! :::pausing to gaze raptly into space while drool collects in small puddle on keyboard:::
One of my favorite things about buying Grandpa Joe's is that John and Melody and their children (grown, some working in the business) are all such good people. It's a pleasure to contribute to their business.
And, yes, they take online orders. :)
