Mandatory Eating

I only have one requirement for Valentine's Day, and that is that I must get one of these boxes.


This box is from Gearhart's Chocolates. Gearhart's chocolates are gorgeous, delicious, and made right here in Charlottesville. (You have them now too, Richmond. Lucky you.)

Aren't they pretty? They happen to be available any time, you don't even have to wait until Valentine's Day to get yourself a box. Or require that someone get a box for you.
