Chocolate Covered Friendship Is A New Friend Of Mine

I love Chocolate Covered Friendship. This beautiful, little book contains deep truths about how friendship among women makes life sweeter and richer. Each piece of chocolate drew a picture of the unique qualities and personalities of the author's treasured friends. The writing style is deliciously descriptive and poignant. The photographs capture the joy inherent in friendship and chocolate. The scriptures remind us how friends are a gift from God. The recipes make your mouth water. I purchased four copies and happily gave them as Christmas gifts to my dearest, long-term women friends. I hope we will be hearing from Thouin and Fox again soon.

A chocolate lover's paradise

Reading Chocolate Covered Friendship was like being invited into Bethany's life and sitting a spell on a quiet front porch, sipping cocoa and enjoying her company. I came away richer for the experience. This is a book to savor, with pictures to salivate over and recipes to fill a chocoholic's dreams. It's best enjoyed with chocolate in hand and would make a perfect gift for the chocolate lover in your life.

Chocolate and friendships really do keep you going

I read this book cover to cover last week. What a sweet reminder of how precious our friendships are and how each friend offers us unique qualities that enrich our lives and keep us going. As the authors so eloquently point out, some make us laugh, some inspire us, some tell us the hard, cold truth when they know we need to hear it. The correlation between friendships and chocolates is perfect. And what a tribute to each of Bethany's friends! Not only do they have a yummy truffle named after them, but they are forever honored with the wonderful descriptions of how Bethany carefully selected each ingredient to reflect their personality and the specific qualities they share with that truffle. The poems, recipes and tips for working with chocolate add to the book to make this the perfect book to give to all your friends. I can't wait to try out the recipes and give the book and truffles to all of my friends for Christmas gifts!

I couldn't put it down

Chocolate Covered Friendship came in the mail today and I couldn't put it down. I could picture so many of my friends in the stories. I plan on giving all my friends a copy for Christmas with some of the chocolates. Highly recommended!

truffle connoisseur

I just got this book in the mail Yesterday afternoon. I couldn't put it down, consequently, my hubby was annoyed bc dinner wasn't on the table when he got home. BUT, when he tasted one of the recipies I followed, from this book, all was forgiven-- and how!!! During dinner, my kids made me read the short stories in this book out loud. They kept saying "Please read one more!" They've never behaved better at the table!! I'll keep it on my coffee table-- it's beautiful and very well done!
