Ginger, Renee, Carla and Barbara went for a tour of the Scharffen Berger Chocolate Maker on Thursday, February 20. During the tour, everyone had to wear hair nets and ear protection. Afterwards, we went to lunch at Ginger Island in Berkeley, bought desserts at Bette's Diner, then toured the Blake Garden in Kensington.
