I didn't have much chocolate left at home so I got this new bar of dark milk chocolate from Ikea!
'My Secret Mother', a book by Phyllis Whitsell was featured in the newspaper last weekend with this caption: 'A daughter given up for adoption later nursed her dying mother without revealing her identity'. You can read this article here, I found it interesting.

The chocolate looks good, I love the oat cookies from IKEA! Hugs, Valerie
You'd have to wonder if the mother knew, children often resemble their parents after all
How cool with the Ikea chocolate Christine, enjoy the weekend!
Somehow one would believe that the mother should recognise the child, but I'm a romantic at heart.
Love and hugs

That is a very interesting story about the adopted daughter and the mother who gave her up.
I thought so too Martha
I bought some half off Valentine candy yesterday... It sounds like an interesting story about the daughter and mother.
thank you for this insight
Swiss chocolate is considered the best, right? Someone told me that Aldi, of all places, had the best chocolate. Aldi is a Swiss company, I believe? I'm sensing a pattern!
wow, what a reminder for me to visit Ikea again. It's down the mountains and about 35 to 40 minutes west on the freeway and it's so worth the trip. I've never had a chocolate bar from there but I love to go through the different settings and see how they decorate a room. I take so many photos when I go. Last time I went was in March 2015. I remember it well - we had just gotten back from a trip to Bend Oregon to see my granddaughter who wanted a certain lamp for her birthday... we made a trip there later to ikea and they were out of them. I must follow the link to read that story you posted about.
Swedish chocolate? Mmm...
