Happy Valentine's Day!

Valentine's Day didn't feel the same this year, probably because I was running around town that day trying to find David a gift. Late that afternoon, the girls and and I drove to Pontcharra's Centre Ville to visit the chocolatier. We had driven by before but had never seen it open and were hoping it would be open then. Luckily it was, and we parked at a much bigger post office that I discovered and walked down the cobblestone streets to the shop. The lady inside was very nice, and I was able to tell her in French that Summer is allergic to nuts and to recommend chocolates and desserts without them. We picked out an assortment of chocolates, eclairs, a piece of chocolate truffle cake, and the girls' favorite, bugnes, which remind me of small pieces of funnel cake. David enjoyed the chocolate and we will definitely go back there soon. We received many Valentine's gifts and cards from family and friends, and the girls had fun playing with their goodies. We love getting mail and appreciate everyone sending us things from home!!
