(Almost) too much chocolate

Did you get to the Chocolate World Expo today at the Palisades Center? I did. And so did several thousand others, from what I could tell.
How popular was it? Well, 250 paid their admission in the first 10 minutes, according to security officials. The fee, $10 for adults and $5 for children, let you walk around and see scores of vendors, selling everything chocolate, and other items, including ice cream, wine and even fancy dog biscuits. Lots of free samples, except, I would guess, for the doggie biscuits, but I didn’t ask. I had two little girls with me who had spotted a gourmet ice cream stand and a fudge vendor. Off we went.
Proceeds benefitted Venture, which provides services to people with developmental disabilities. The extraordinary nonprofit runs a wonderful summer camp (the agency’s full name is “Camp Venture, Inc.”) after-school programs, adult services, family support — the full complement of services. Venture’s equestrian program was a benefactor of the chocolate-laced fundraiser.
Rockland County Legislator John Murphy, who is Venture’s president, was chairman of the event’s planning committee. I saw him as he stood by the entrance (both sides of the fourth-floor halls of the Macy’s/Lord & Taylor wing, as well as the two conference rooms near the ice rink were chock full of chocolate etc. vendors.) He was smiling and greeting people. He should be quite proud of himself. Wonder if he got tired of chocolate after a few hours, like I did. Not to worry. It only lasts about 20 minutes. Then, it’s time for another sample!
