Oh, HB, lavender truffles!!!!???!!!
Please!
Are you sure you are not confusing Swiss chocolates with Belgian chocolates? I guess not, as you don't seem to be a fan of 'Godiva', and I think it is very "milk chocolatey/weak" and over-rated. Swiss chocolates are usually very "strong". Unfortunately, my favorites, "Les Paves de Geneve" don't hardly travel at all, unless hand carried and kept cool. I've sent a few "chocolate soups" to friends. But I can guarantee that these would convert you!

Oh, but lavender truffles! Another something that I am sure does not travel except under escort (and, sorry, pod, but it wouldn't make it to Texas, at all!). My wife is in NYC for yet 1 more week (3 total!). How far is Middleburgh? Nah, she loves me a lot, but probably not enough to travel out just to get me the world's best-sounding chocolate.

Gosharoonee [now that I have been reminded that the D word is not allowed]! Now that I've heard of them, how can I die without tasting one?

Yeah, you DO need a GH (new paragraph; new topic,as my 5th grade teacher taught me). Or at least a good cold frame! Pod's idea of moving south is a bit extreme, especially because you'd need a separate American Van Lines truck to move the herbs; not to mention whatever other plants you have!

Even if you don't like Swiss chocolates, wanta do a trade? Pineapple sage for seeds of my NOT Horapha "lemon" basil?

Maybe we should do a big round-robin herb swap?
