A Match Made in Heaven
Chocolate Walnuts!
What started as a friendship of frequent proximity grew - over many, many years - to an intimate bond between a nut and a seed.
They had met in school. One was sophisticated, refined, inside a hard shell, the other more free-flowing, willing to be a truffle one day and a hard candy the next.
They were friends, often in together for events, parties, and most often from September to October when harvest was happening.
It was an accident really, for them to meld together; one after being solid for so long, became more fluid, the other broken out of its shell. But meld they did, and what you see before you is an amazing combination of walnut and chocolate, perfect in nearly every way.
By taste, it is a flavor with a memory that is as strong as it is in the mind.
