I'm sitting in Dandelion Chocolate in San Francisco enjoying a cuppa European drinking chocolate and taking in some people watching. To my right my Love picks up this book and scans it. I see it and seize the opportunity to take in a read.

I can't say I think this book is amazing. Or that the portrayal of the cacao bean harvesters in South America is entirely accurate. I don't think it'd go so far to to call it educational. But it was ....cute.
