5/03/2002   Hey..are you glad it's Friday..? YAAAHEEEEOOO !! I have a busy weekend ahead of me..fix water line to the back yard so that I can start getting the yard in shape..make some trim for the outside eaves and get some paint on the outside of the house..and then up to finish the room addition for the kids...uh..not all THIS weekend..lol I am reading a book about Colorado, "I Never Nnew That about Colorado" by Abbot Fay And, being a chocolate lover, I found out that the Hershey candy bar was "conceived" in Denver. It seems that Milton Hershey came West with his father, Henry, who had come to Denver to make money on the booming silver market. Milton got a job with a local candy maker..It was there that he discovered that chocolate made with fresh milk was a better chocolate, held it's texture and flavor better than chocolate made with the traditional methods....and when he went back home to PA. he took those ideas with him, developed his candy bar (and countless of our addictions,,,!!)....God bless Milton, and God bless some cow in Denver in the 1880's...!!! posted by David | 5/03/2002 07:57:00 PM		archives links http://brainblenders.blogs.com/pop/ http://www.nutang.com/members.php?user=invisible http://healingiraq.blogspot.com/ http://riverbendblog.blogspot.com/ http://musclemouse.blogspot.com http://www.gflower.com http://strangetales.fishouttawater.net/saidthat.htm http://www.gloriousnoise.com/ http://www.mozillazine.org/weblogs/hyatt/ http://boingboing.net/ http://www.neuroprosthesis.org/blogger.html http://vixenvic.prymal.net/ http://catchthedream.blogspot.com/ http://home.att.net/~quotations/beautiful.html Read my DreamBook guestbook!
