:rolleyes:Chocolate Mission Arrived! :D

 

Delicious!

 

I received a cute little poem about orange chocolate - so fitting because this mission was a combination of both!

 

The chocolate -- already sampled -- delicious! Ritter Sport Milk Chocolate with Whole Hazelnuts (are you reading this, Nutella Monster?), Toblerone Swiss Milk Chocolate with Honey and Almond Nougat, a Milk Chocolate Bar from Starbucks, and a Lindt Extra Creamy Milk Chocolate bar! Yum! What a delicious variety of my favorite food!

 

With all the excitement over the chocolate I almost forgot about the geocoins! ;) Something from my seeking list -- a shiny bright Orange County Geocoin -- and a pretty red MWGB Duck #16 -- one of my favorite numbers ;) !

 

If the MWGB Duck is my clue, then I owe a big Thank You to LadyBee4T ! Thank you, Bev! You outdid yourself. What a wonderful creamy milk chocolate surprise!!

Mission Received!!

 

I got the best mission ever :mad::D:D

 

Not only did I get a great geocoin that I secretly wanted (a 2008 Easter Egg in Pink) and a yummy Burnt Almond Dark Chocolate bar (due to it being eaten almost immediately, there are no pictures of the actual bar), but I got a beautiful piece of Original artwork from my Secret Mission Sender.

Does anyone want to sign up for 1 one mission? If so please contact me...first person to do so gets it. :mad:

 

Thanks! Got it! :mad:

 

Don't forget my offer either. :D

 

Hey Keewee

 

If you really still want an exchange - I'll swap north to south with you.....

I'm sure I've got a special coin or two that you don't have, and you must really be hankering after something other than Dunedin made chocolate!

How do you top off a great day of caching in sunny Myrtle Beach with lissie?

 

Coming home to find a package lying on the bar with a huge Whittakers Kiwi Fruit chocolate bar inside. Wish the battery on my camera wasn't dead because this chocolate won't last long. After a shower and a another tick check the feast will begin. Oh, and the geocoin is so cute. A Signal, New Zealand coin. I love it.

 

Thank you Butterfly Lady, you really made my day. I now have 3 teenagers sitting on the bed staring at me waiting to get started on the chocolate. I hate to even open it since the wrapper is so nice.

 

PS Loved the card also. So true, sad, but true. :)

I got my chocolate mission! Inside was a Sweetlife Personal and a chocolate I never heard of...can't wait to try it!!!!

 

 

We sent you our favorite candy bars. Seroogy's peanutbutter bar, do you know hard it was to part with these????? Well your one lucky person to be able to have a Seroogy's bar and specially because they are made in Wisconsin. Hope you enjoyed our personal coin as much as we do.

So pleased that one out of four packages mailed in the last two months have made it!

And hopefully the chocolate has not been squashed -- I was so worried about a soft centre chocolate, but knew it was the RIGHT one for this mission.

With 3 teenagers, I so hope you get more than one taste of it.

 

Now fingers X'd that the 2nd chocolate mission I sent will arrive.

We got home from rattusbaggus' soccer game this morning and in the mail box I found a big box from Karma. I was thinking to myself "Oh, I can't remember making a large order with Karma... this has got to be a mistake!".

 

Well, the package was no mistake... it was far from it... it was a chocolate lovers delight! :D

 

Sooooooooo much chocolate.... mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

Sooooooooooooo many chocolate bars not seen or tried before.... mmmmmmmmmmmm

 

Oh, Karma - you have spoiled me! Thank you, thank you, thank you. We have spent the day occasionally pulling out a new chocolate bar and trying it. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm YUMMY!!

 

Oh... yeah... there was a coin in there too! :)

A beautiful BN red Dorkfish seahorse. Sooooo beautiful. Thank you very much. We love it!! :D

 

08choco02a.jpg08choco02b.jpg

 

So far I think that the Charleston Chew was my fav. I'm saving the Hershey's Special Dark for later... Oh how I love dark, rich chocolate. And the Reece's... mmmmmm - I was introduced to Peanut Butter chocolates with the St. Pat's mission. Never liked Peanut Butter... but Peanut Butter chocolates - YUM!! And those Ghirardelli Caramel chocolates aren't bad either... mmmmmmmmmmm...

 

So again Karma - thank you very, very much for this delicious, yummy mission!! :)

 

P.S. After writing this I have a strange hankering for chocolate... can't imagine why! Must be time to indulge! :D

After lots of patient waiting, (it's so unfair when dad gets his missions before me! :grin: - but he did share), my chocolate mission arrived today. YAY.

 

Dad cut open the box for me and inside was a large bag of chocolate and lollies - of all sorts. :blink:... And underneath those was a cool puppy. :ph34r: I have called him '101 Dalmations'. :laughing: He will sleep on my bed with me. I think he is so cute. :grin:

 

Also in the package was a really cool kids coin and a card with kittens on it. Thank you so much for my mission ThirstyMick - I love it. Ah, and I love POP ROCKS too - dad got some in a mission ages ago and I kept stealing them. Now I have my own. Yay. Thank you Carla/ThirstyMick. :)

Tom is one of the lucky souls to get some international chocolate...it came all the way from Sweden from grodan&fiabus. We haven't gotten into it yet but it looks very good, one with hazel nuts and one without. Don't tell him but I did sneak into the jelly beans! The coin is the "Leaf no cache unfound"....a really cute head of lettuce! Many thanks for the sweet surprise to grodan&fiabus!!!

This was a very exciting weekend for me so I apologize for not posting earlier. I had already received the chocolate part of my mission and on Saturday I received the coin part. In the package was a card with a very nice message inside. Thanks I really appreciate it!!! I received not one but two coins. They are Hazard-Perry County Tour II Event coin and the Lettuce Go Caching coin. Both are really cool coins that I love. You have out done yourself and since you kept your identity well hidden I must send my heartfelt thanks here!!! :):) I'm sorry that I can't take a picture of the coins with the chocolate--well actually I'm not that sorry LOL :)

Thanks for pointing out that my mission DID get there! LOL I was looking at the wrong page! I am so glad that it got there and that you liked everything! It was stressful to try to find chocolate to send to Europe..as I think that they have the best chocolate! B)

WOW, did I receive some GREAAT CHOCOLATE>>>>all the way from Italy. A very dark chocolate bar and an orange flavored chocolate. Sure was glad the postal system had tossed them around so there were small pieces inside. :ph34r: Had company at the time of the opening and of course everyone had to sample them. LOL

The coin was from the "First Geo-ChocoEvent" GC15WDF that was held together with the "Eurochocolate 2007" in Perugia.

The second coin sent want to travel and be photographed with fast or beautiful cars, so it has been grabbed and is being release to begin its travel to Georgia tomorrow. My sister Sticky Buns will be attending a Handcycle event their and I have asked her to take pictures with neat cars along the way.

I will be posting pictures of my streetrods with it as well. :( Thanks again for all the fun.....

We got some yummy goodies from Canada today!!! We've never had either of those before, but they were good! The Smarties are like M&M's and the Coffee Crisp were just delicious, light and chocolatey! I'm gonna have to check our stores and see if they carry those here.

 

 

E&Cplus3 must know that I don't like to share my chocolate, as they were kind enough to send 2 pieces of each. If they hadn't, poor Joey wouldn't have gotten any :ph34r:

 

 

The coin was great too! We like anything relating to the sea!

 

 

Thanks E&Cplus3!!!!

 

 

(ps, we sent our mission out on Saturday, I know way way way late, and it's headed overseas too, but it weighed over 5 lbs, and that's 5 lbs of mostly chocolate :( , so hopefully it's worth the wait!)

ChocoEmail: Sent on Apr. 2nd

ChocoMission: Received on Apr. 18th

 

Wow... what a package.

We received on Friday, but we then left for an event in Central Italy. (Unfortunately my portable pc is still out of order, so I could report this only today... I personally apologize).

 

We LOVED the mission... we have appreciated the chocolate and Nicole tried to steal some right away.

fotocioccolatosa.jpg

 

We learned that the "De rujter" chocolate is normally used for some "very special" occasion, like a new baby... well, we will use it for other type of very special occasion... we will eat it anyway :(

 

Many Thanks... a delicious mission!
