It's very delicious with hot cocoa cos' it really brings out the flavor. Perhaps you could try your delectable tablea with el maestro muscovado sugar (i specify because other local muscovado's have very poor quality) nice blog kudos! tablea chocolate is always good. i buy tablea from san jose, antique, paired with muscovado sugar!! el maestro antique muscovado is the brand name, if i’m not mistaken.

Saw you at the Chill Out For A Cause bazaar yesterday morning. Wanted to stop you to tell you I read your blog, but I thought that would be a tad bit weird, considering you don't know me from Adam (or Eve, since I'm a girl). Anyway, hope you enjoyed yourself there! It was for a good cause anyway ;) Hi Lori (nge, feeling close…) Saw you at the Chill Out For A Cause bazaar yesterday morning.
