![]() With the rest of the second course lest I become ill! I think we nibbled at the leftover white and double-dark chocolate pates for the better part of two days before we finished them off!Īnd then, last Saturday night, we used our last coupon for a triple date to a local bowling alley. ![]() The “second course” was pretty close to divine, but we couldn’t finish it,Īnd my last course, a chocolate truffle cake, went home in a box What a treat! Honestly, despite the fact that “chocolate on the face” was our family’s secret password when the kids were little (because we all loved chocolate so much), by the time we were done with our quart of “cha co lat” (hot chocolate with espresso, cinnamon, and loads of whipping cream served in champagne glasses from a silver-plated coffee pot), I was full. Then, a couple of weeks ago, we spent our second coupon on a “Chocolate Lovers Lunch” at the Chocolate Lounge in The Local Epicurean, which advertises “wild food for urban people” and specializes in 100% organic pastas and some very interesting cooking classes.

How’s that for success on steroids? I am so impressed! In fact, I was impressed enough to try it out. Have you discovered “Groupon”? It’s an organization so named to blend the words “group” and “coupon” into one giant of a baby offering coupons for the e-savvy masses. ![]()
