Southwest Chocolate & Coffee Fest March 16-17, 2019

This event is great fun to attend even if you don't drink coffee. Shh don't tell anybody I feel like a spy. Did I mention they also have Chocolate in so many shapes, like the fiery food show with chocolate instead. It's a great opportunity to try lots of local grown stores, all down the row. Local beer and wine too. If you don't want to indulge in too much coffee and chocolate buy some as gifts. I think I read somewhere chocolate loses all calories when its a gift. I think it was a lie, but it sounded good to me.
The show runs 2 days only
