{Chocolate Festival- Soave} 9 Oct 2010

As I was reading the post paper, I saw that there was a Chocolate Festival in Soave this weekend. Since we all LOVE chocolate (especially Kieran), we decided to go this morning.

Kieran's waffle with chocolate :)





I walked by a vendor and she pointed to my camera and showed me a chocolate camera--I couldn't resist buying it :)

A YUMMY Saturday morning---Enjoy :)

{Vedova} wine tour 6 Oct 2010

The second winery we went to on our wine tour ....up in the hills. It was beautiful. They served us a light lunch and we sampled 3 different Prosecco wines. I bought one bottle of each :)














A wonderful way to spend a Wednesday!
