Just curious...

[Kelly8]

I didn't get to go to Leadership this year. I was just curious what gifts you got? I heard they were phenomenol, but I haven't heard (or seen-pics would be cool) what you got. Any details?

[Chef Kearns]

We got quite a few...let's see...Dots Blanket, Calculator, Candy Bar, ther is something else I'm forgetting.

Bamboo towels, SBRC (those were in the grocery bag with the 29/2 book).

[ltkacz]

[Kelly8]

Thanks! What's the story with the candy bar?

[Flamingo]

It was almost the best chocolate I ever had.....except for german chocolate from germany someone brought back for me from europe... I think that Warren Buffett ownes the candy company...

It was a break during the long general session when they introduced the career plan changes. They passed out a See's chocolate bar to everyone.

Ohhhh, Sees! When my DB & SIL were stationed on the West Coast, they used to send us some every Christmas. It was soooo good!

Ok, now I want to try one of these....lol. Or a truffle:love:

LOL I'm on the west coast and willing to share the See's joy- for a price! HA HA HA JK! :)

[chefann]

The chocolate was fun. After the break was over, Jean Jonas returned to stage, looked around, and said, "That was an Oprah moment, wasn't it?" :) It did remind me of a product giveaway on a talk show.

Wait.. Sees is just a WEST coast thing?:confused: I had NO idea!

[chefann]

Yep. Just west coast.

[Flamingo]

[mrssyvo]

Not just a west coast thing- there is a See's chocolate store in Downer's Grove, Il Right on Ogden Ave.

[BettieC]

You can also order it online, I already checked, and am tempted to place an order....lol

I know this has nothing to do with the chocolate... but I miss those little maple cream cookies in Canada that I used to buy in bulk when I visited my ex-in-laws. My ex-inlaws are from Brantford, ON. One of the few things I miss about being married to him... lol

The one's shaped like a maple leaf with the cream in them? They come packaged (name brand) and in bulk at the bulk store. I can ship if you'd like! :D

[jbdowd0798]

I'll be Wave 1 and bribed to pack a suitcase of it! HA HA HA You can totally order it on line.....but I like the stores better as you can pick what you want in your box....leave out the gross ones you don't like- fill with what you do!!

[Kelly8]

That chocolate sounds yummy. I've never heard of it.

[frozenchef]

That's why See's does so great with fundraisers on the East Coast and up here in Alaska :)

[PampMomof3]

We have a see's booth in our mall at Christmas time and we're in Florida.

[ughubug]

Scotch mallows and scotch kisses YUMMMMM!!!!!!
