Advent Calendar: I have to confess that I’ve had an Advent calendar every Christmas for most of my life and intend to keep getting one for every Christmas season to come. An Advent calendar is essentially a countdown to Christmas beginning on December 1st and lasting until December 24th. There are 24 numbered “doors” or “windows” to open. Behind each one is a piece of chocolate (usually Christmas themed). Popping the chocolate into my mouth each year instantly brings me back to the best Christmases of my childhood. Typically, I opt for a more Christmas themed image, but being the Star Wars fan that I am, I was gifted with a Grogu stylized one from The Mandalorian. This particular calendar is distributed in the U.S. by Galerie Candy, and I believe the chocolate is made by Jean-Talon Chocolate in Canada. My only minor complaint is it seems like a wasted opportunity to not make the chocolates into various shapes from the Star Wars universe (ships, characters, weapons), they are instead the same shapes found in other Jean-Talon Chocolate Advent calendars. Luckily, that means they also have the same great nostalgic taste and are Doughboy...

Stopped by today for the first time just out of curiosity. I read a review that the staff was very rude but decided to not judge the place by another person's experience. The store was very small, everything seemed overpriced eventhough it was a discount store. But I still made a few selections as to not be rude to the establishment. Proceeding to checkout was a different story as I waited for over 5 minutes for a cashier, and when I saw a worker she came in one office just to disappear into the warehouse. Sadly but not so Sadly I left my items at the counter...

I ordered from their online store for my kids' school Valentine's Day exchange, and not only were the prices fabulous, it arrived in two days! It was well packaged, and though I was nervous about the quality of the printed hearts, I'm so thrilled to see I need not have been. I feel like I made a great choice when I decided to order from Galerie Candy. Thank...
