I think I like the first one best, but they all appeal to me, for one reason or another. Kevin and I were talking last night, and I said maybe we should release a Serendib […]
“Dearest Mother, I see that you have made another lovely set of chocolates overnight. Might I possibly have one?” “Only if you’re willing to pose for a photo — you actually perfectly coordinate today with this batch of sweets!” The kids definitely approve of the recent confectionery trend. #serendibkitchen #serendibdaughter 🙂

I had some bowls of chocolate left over from the Valentine’s fruit-dipping, and I didn’t want to waste them — had the brainwave that I could do a layered set of chocolates. And they are SO SO good.
