I’m getting started on a contest early this month because it’s a busy time of year, so I thought I’d extend it for the majority of the month instead of just the end of it!
Out of the two previous contests I was surprised to find that folks seemed to prefer the theobromine molecule t-shirt over the actual chocolate! So, that’s what I’m offering up again!
