I've been wanting Fleur de Sel for some time, but we just could not find it anywhere around here.
Matt finally found an on-line salt-seller (not a salt cellar, though I'm sure they sold those, too), and me? Well, I'm going to have to start making chocolates!
Even if I could afford it, I wouldn't be able to fit an enrober into my house. Unless I built that addition...
Until that day comes, this chocolate fountain should work just fine for coating goodies with chocolate!
Good grief; you know you're a foodie when you think a bag of salt is a great gift!!
And of course, I was able to take these clear, non-halo-ed, photos with my very nice, new, camera.
Thanks, honey...
