Today I learned about “Bouchee” chocolate. This would be a great thing to include with a little butcher knife ornament (I have one!) in an ornament exchange, a la the MHL listren. I’ve never participated in one of their exchanges (although I’ve done the card thing a few times), but it’s one of the brilliant maud ideas that I carried over to my LIW obsession.
Bouchee milk chocolate comes from Belgium, btw. And if it’s not available at a store near you, you can buy it for around ten dollars for twelve pieces at Euro-Pacific Imports online.
Joseph Bouchie, the father of Laura’s students in the Bouchie (fictional Brewster) School, had a brother who spelled his name Bushey. How do you pronounce Bouchie? According to a descendent whose mother heard it straight from Mrs. Bouchie herself, the family pronounced it Boo-SHAY.
