Well, chocolate actually does grow on trees, although it needs to picked, fermented, roasted and ground before it can be turned into the tasty creations we modern folk rely on to get us through times of stress, afternoon slumps, PMS and breakups (geez, could I be anymore of a cliché?). Between the months of June and October (the trees are very sensitive to cold and so can't be shipped when the weather turns frosty) eChocolates.com make it possible to have your very own pair of chocolate trees delivered to your home or office. To sweeten the deal, they are throwing in two free Vintage Plantation Chocolate Bars with any tree order. They ship on the first day of the month, so if you want your own chocolate tree, you better place your order soon, as September 1st is rapidly approaching (where did the summer go?). I'm very tempted to place an order for myself (they cost $9.95 plus $8.20 s&h).
