Chocolate in myriad, marvelous forms

Thanks to all who came out to KIP on Thursday! KIP Swap: Chocolate was a great time, as you can see from the joy in these photos. We treated each other to Godiva hot chocolate, our own local haut chocolatier Vosges, Swedish Bakery petits fours, classic Russell Stover, a chocolate rose, You Go Girl kisses, chocolate-covered strawberries (health food, you know), and other delights too numerous to mention!

Now Accepting Nominations for the next swap item or theme...maybe in April? We could connect it to Earth Day! KIP Goes Green! Half-kidding.

We also discussed initiating an -along called the One Project Project, or OPP (OPP-along?) -- the idea is to knit one project from all the books you own from which you have yet to make anything. That's the basic premise, anyway..."rules" and maybe even the announcement of prizes to follow! Please submit suggestions, desiderata, et ceterata, below. And keep warm! See you Feb. 21.

KIP meeting and Chocolate Swap!

Hope you can wade through the slush to join us at KIP tomorrow night! We'll be having a chocolate swap. If you're interested in participating, at least one chocolate item (two, if you like) and spend approximately $5 per item. I'm sure they will already be in some sort of packaging, so no additional wrapping is necessary.

What is a chocolate item, you ask? Well, it could be a chocolate bar, chocolate-covered fruit, truffles, chocolate cookies, fudge, etc. -- even a pastry if you are adventurous! Obviously the item does not have to be 100% chocolate but we are going for a theme here. :)

See you at 7pm at Alliance Bakery!
