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.

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! :)
 
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!
 
Yep. Just west coast.
 
Who is in wave 1 from the west coast that is comming to NC????? Will you mabey bring some with you for me PLEASE!!!!!
 
Not just a west coast thing- there is a See's chocolate store in Downer's Grove, Il Right on Ogden Ave.
 
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
 
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!!
