Bless The Frenzied Masses

 Shoppers are giddy, almost nervous, choosing from our wide selection of fresh truffles; 

pure, delicious, hand-crafted treats for their loved ones. 

We are packaging up plenty of all our favorites: 

 peppermint truffles (above),

 peppermint bark (left),

And MOUNDS and MOUNDS 

of Magic Chunks (left).

Donna has been nuts about Chunks lately.  

She's making them by the hundred-pound.  And packaging 3-lb. bags for sale at the shop.

The holiday consumer momentum is building and churning and growing before our eyes in our glistening shop.  People have the frenzy.  Reaching for a gift selection, a chocolate bar, a bag of Chunks, a box of truffles, anything they can give, to ease their relationship guilt, reaching for connection and brightness as the wilderness outside closes in on the darkest day of the year. 

  

We carry on behind our counter, ready and still.  The shop is a woman in climax, 

ready for action, yet having seen it all unfold already before her.  

And then, on December 25, for 7 days we rest.
