Chocolate on the brain

I woke up this morning craving chocolate that could only mean PMS. I never crave chocolate any other time. I am not just craving just any chocolate either; I really want some chocolate from San Francisco Chocolate Factory. I cannot find it around here and I got some when I went to California a couple of years ago and I have got to find someone who will ship me some. I know this sounds crazy but this is the best tasting and the smoothest chocolate I have ever tasted. If anyone knows where I can find in online please let me know.

(You can substitute the baking chips for any candy of your choice, Hershey Kisses with caramel, or Almonds.

I live near San Francisco: Where is this place and what would you want? I can send it with your September stitch markers -- maybe the chocolate will help you ignore the fact that I'm a newbie at stitch marker making. You can email me at oakmotATgmaiDOTcom with chocolate info. if you're interested.
