Between that, the heart they put on the box, and being $6 a box if you buy two... color us both jealous. If I had a store like that around here I don't think I'd ever leave. Instead, we're stuck with chocolate stores that are overpriced, the salespeople (kids) are jerks, and they laugh in your face if you ask for a sample.<br /><br />Also, as half Mexicans, we've both made our fair share of tacos but never apple pie tacos. I'm looking forward to trying this. Hold the whipped cream, though (not a fan).A Beer for the Showerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17029139745335325356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-71615994573289690772015-02-11T22:52:28.873-05:002015-02-11T22:52:28.873-05:00Never been to Lindt before but there is a lesser k...Never been to Lindt before but there is a lesser know chocolate shop near here which I visited.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087140585742801854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-52928480224115215672015-02-11T22:09:42.865-05:002015-02-11T22:09:42.865-05:00Been forever since I've been in a chocolate sh...Been forever since I've been in a chocolate shoppe.

The things they can do with animatronics these days are amazing. We had a terrible terrorist incident in a Lindt store here in Australia and I think I will always have that association now.

I am definitely a chocoholic. I could have spent a fortune in Lindt's yesterday. <br /><br />Afternoon matinees are great, as you say, not very busy. The cinema we went to is one with lots of theatres and ours had less than a dozen people in it. The film is lovely and I recommend it to anyone with a heart.

So pleased you enjoyed Paddington as I know you were really looking forward to seeing the film.<br />After not visiting the cinema for years, we're converts to afternoon Matinees - the theatres are relatively quiet/empty and I'm less likely to fall asleep (which was always a problem at evening shows - or even watching TV at home) LOL.<br />Sue Clinkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15582183867336673426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-85517205547280588512015-02-11T11:25:54.333-05:002015-02-11T11:25:54.333-05:00I love Lindt chocolates … definitely dangerous Jo ...I love Lindt chocolates … definitely dangerous Jo :) We hadn't planned to go and see Paddington, but after your review I might persuade hubby to go over the weekend.<br />Filhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09027496923235464642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-70510270731925198132015-02-11T09:33:43.668-05:002015-02-11T09:33:43.668-05:00I'm glad to hear that JoJo.

You really should go see it in the theatre, it makes such a difference.
