Chrose, that's what I did! Okay, it was 8 ounces of pretty good bittersweet and some cream, but I made some truffles for my DH. No knowing how to temper chocolate to make a shell around the truffle, I rolled some in cocoa powder, some in toasted coconut and some in toasted pecan bits. They're giftwrapped in one of my fridge's
vegetable bins where I KNOW he wouldn't think to look. They'll go nicely with the gift cards from Best Buy and Home Depot.

There are two nice strip steaks drying out a bit (that's what aging is, isn't it?) in the fridge too, and tomorrow I'll look for a decent veg to go with it. The champagne will go in the fridge tomorrow.

Good think my husband never comes here!
