If You Could . . .
If you could create your own Ben & Jerry's ice cream flavor, what would it be?
Mine would be "Mary, Mary, Quite Raspberry." It'd consist of raspberry flavored ice cream or sherbet (if B & J's makes such a thing) and dark chocolate candies shaped like tiny raspberries, with a bonus of raspberry goo inside the chocolate.
Your turn. What would your flavor be? And don't forget to come up with a funky name.

Fruit or Chocolate?
I've discovered that there are two types of people in the world - those who like fruit-flavored candy and those who like chocolate. Given a choice between Skittles, or lemon drops, or orange jelly slices, or Swedish Fish, and a milk chocolate bar, I'll take the fruit-flavored option 8 times out of 10. If you were to offer me a chocolate covered cherry, or a raspberry/chocolate confection, I'm all there, but mostly because of the fruit.
Which are you? A fruit nut or a chocolate nut? (You can hold the nuts if you like.)

Tuckles
By jove, I think I've got it! As I was thinking about my idea for a Dave Matthews Band compilation album of romantic songs and the possible marketing doodads to go with it, the thought occurred that the chocolates could be called "Tuckles." Tuckle is one of the best made-up words I've ever heard. It's found in DMB's song "When the World Ends." Doesn't tuckle just sound like comfort food?
