For me, only one covered in white with creme fraiche and a walnut on top. From Leonidas -- the same with creme fraiche, with a hazelnut inside.... one kilo every time. I'd go with an assortment that has a mix of chocolate types. Easy box to carry home and makes everyone happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Direct ship from Switzerland, so I got 3 boxes. Shipping was about half the cost of the chocolates. They are pure awesomeness I agree John. Swiss chocolates are awesome. This is my favourite box of Swiss chocolates. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been many times and I camped overnight once on the battleship with a scout troop. A lot of the visit does involve inside time exploring the ships. If you are looking to spend most of your time outside that might not be the place. Have you considered a day trip to Block Island? I really enjoy biking around the island as well as the boat ride. Of course, that is just my thought. Block Island is an excellent idea, thanks -just don’t know if I have the stamina to bike around the island! Also the boys have some minor motion sickness, they wear the wrist band things on a long car ride. Not sure how they’d do on the ferry. I am going to discuss with my DD though because we also considered a boat tour around Newport. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brookmill18 Posted August 12, 2021 #25830 Share Posted August 12, 2021 We just recently heard about a great boat trip for families in Newport on a lobstering boat. It leaves from Bowen’s Wharf. Check out Fishntalesadventures. Lots of newish things in the Newport area. Have fun! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dani negreanu Posted August 12, 2021 Author #25841 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Speaking of Swiss chocolates... I have a cousin in Germany, who is like a little sister to me [we're both only daughters]. One of her sons is working as in internist in a Zurich hospital. He knows how much I like chocolates and every time he visits [that is, sometime b4 Covid...], he brings me those.... @grapau27 Are you familiar with? He's buying them by the "meter" 😉 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many are guessing spinach which is something I have to stay away from. I become a kidney stone machine if I have something high in oxalate.

Heavy rains and thunderstorms in the area. First pitch was 8:30, and we had to leave at 6:30 so I’m happy to be relaxing at home. A few pics from the last couple days. Wildlife from around the yard, other than Lucy. Wow Andrew! Once again, great pictures! I love the colors on the snail. Beautiful sunset! 13 hours ago, h20skibum said: @Momof3gurlzenjoy that time with your grandsons. We are now down to short time with our CA grandson. Today was peach day. Took all the grandkids to a fruit farm where they learned about peaches, including the proper way to pick them. They all had small bags they picked, and they must have paid attention because they were all sweet. Afternoon plans were changed from boating to an indoor get together when some heavy storms came through. Our elderly neighbor brought a bag of peaches to us from his peach tree yesterday. 1 hour ago, davekathy said: I thought they looked like small quiche.

I am about to go water the garden before it gets hotter. It’s 89 now but is supposed to hit 98 in a couple hours. Accuweather is saying it’s extremely humid.
