They make these little round extra dark little chocolates and those are soooooo good. The wrapper is usually black.

Aaah, I'm thinking of the little Lindor balls. Those are meh. I just looked up the chocolate bars and those are quite tasty. I had forgotten which brand those were. I have to look for them in the more gourmet chocolate selection at the grocery store. :D

Conflicting testimonies here.

Chocolate won't make you full. Here, have a potato instead.

I had a snack-dessert thing in Maine which was essentially a potato/powdered sugar patty covered in dark chocolate. It sounds weird, but it actually tasted really good! I can't remember what it was called, though.

Guys, guys. I'm starting a self-study course for learning how to tech edit knitting patterns. I'm hoping I can make an at home job of this so I can earn some money.

(Pssst, brands Frey in Migros and Cailler in Coop don't really get sold much outside of Switzerland and have some interesting flavours, but you can find actually cheaper Lindt (Coop) abroad tho checking out the flavours here might also be an idea :P) Also, try "Ragusa" and get addicted =3=b (*)
Speaking of Swiss food recommended to at least try out, Zigerstöckli slated for export get their humidity reduced while the domestically-sold ones are left in their "natural" state. (Available in Migros and Coop supermarkets, plus more.)

... because it's even harder to obtain outside of Switzerland than Swiss chocolate (seriously, they have to mail it with dry ice packs)?

Ehehehehe, more like obnoxious shark enthusiast ::) There's also a very useful cosplay app on there that will let me plan out my cosplays and their progress. 10/10, would recommend.

Sounds great! It's quite cool that there are courses on knitting patterns :)
I would probably need one in crochet; I'm trying to write down the pattern for the amigurumis, but it's still not decipherable...

This sounds both interesting and fun, but what exactly is tech editing knitting patterns?

I used to crochet a lot, and I developed my own note-taking system for patterns...but I'm pretty sure if I looked at my notes now I would have no idea would they mean. (Step 1: actually find the notes.)
