It was my birthday on Monday and with no one around, I thought I would treat myself to some Chocolate up at the French Broad Chocolate Lounge in Ashville, NC. Ashville is about an hour away from Greenville and a beautiful drive through the mountains. So, I grabbed my coffee and headed up the road. I stopped and browsed a bit in Hendersonville. It is a wee town just south of Ashville, and is just the nicest town to walk around in. Lovely shops line the streets and like Ashville, it is a very Artsy town. Hendersonville kind of reminds me of Concord, NH where the Concord New Hampshire College is located just short of being downtown. There is no college in Hendersonville but the quaintness embraces the small shop lined streets. After browsing through stores, I headed north. It was about lunch time when I got there and really didn't feel like lunch but I did feel like Chocolate Cream Brulee..yum. OMG, it is the best. I bought a few truffles to take to my daughter to taste. She is getting married in April and wants truffles on the tables. So, hey, we needed to try them first!! Chocolate is my weakness, love it, just love it. I have a few more Chocolate shops to check out before the wedding but I am going to take notes along the journey. We all have journeys in life. Some are for family matters, some are for ourselves and yet, some are for career advancement programs. Whatever the journey may be, I would suggest to give it your all. It is worth it in the end result.
