Tapas in Meze, France

Some spicy chorizo and chilled rose at sunset. A pink and perfect combination!

Richardson's Candy Kitchen, Deerfield, MA


Richardson's Candy Kitchen is just up the road on Route 5 on the way to Old Deerfield. I wanted to buy something special and something local to take back to my family and friends in the U.K., and I'd seen a segment on "The Best Food I Ever Ate" on the Food Network, which highlighted their Dark Chocolate Pecan Dixies!
The shop is full of candies, fudge, nuts and all sorts of concoctions you could imagine. The air is sweet and heavy with sugar, and you're definitely spoiled for choice. It's a little overwhelming so I was glad I knew what I was going to buy!


We sampled the Dixies last night with a cup of tea, and I must say they were fabulous. The combination of the pecans and caramel with the dark chocolate is heavenly.
