I have to call strangers for my job. Taking calls I am fine with, but having to call I still get nervous.
I don't know what I'd do without the internet!

I'm pretty sure I've seen that chocolate; I think at the import store.

It's a little easier to call from a job situation (at least I felt that way when I was working at university) than calling for info on a vacancy (you feel sooo dependent on what the other's going to say!)

Well, I can definitely recommend the Tony chocolate, especially the orange caramel-seasalt one, it's heavenly!

I loved reading this.  Totally jealous of you living in the Netherlands.  I agree with caring about how animals are treated prior to them becoming our food.  One of the reasons we will be raising our own pigs again this year and starting to raise chickens and turkeys for our own table as well :)

Raising your own meat is I think the absolute best way to ensure the animals have had a good life, you see them every day, you get to know them. Unfortunately, for me this is not (yet?) possible, but I'm always very interested when you write about it.
