It's that time again...time to begin filtering chocolate back into my system. Gosh, it's only been a month since the holidays but for some reason I'm craving some chocolate again....must be the very thought of Valentine's Day, I suppose.
A while back, my friend Brent, an almond farmer, {pronounced "Amond" acorrding to him and all almond farmers, apparently} who has a family almond farm in Ripon, CA, 4th Generation Farms , gave me a bag of their raw almonds. Almonds in the raw are my absolute favorite....I could eat handfuls of them, and they're so good for you too!
