Wondering what to do for Valentine's Day in the Boston area?  Well, I don't live in Boston, and will be nowhere near it on Valentine's Day, but, if I was in Boston around then I would definitely want to go on the "One & Only Boston Chocolate Tour."  That's right, diets be damned! 

The One & Only Boston Chocolate Tour runs every Saturday from January 10, 2009 to April 25, 2009, but it feels like such a natural thing to do for Valentine's Day.  On this tour you will be treated to a 3-hour journey from the Old Town Trolley Tours of some of the finest chocolate from culinary landmarks in Boston:

• Top of the Hub
• Omni Parker House Hotel
• The Langham Hotel

And, if you're in the Napa Valley in California, you too can have a chocolaty Valentine's Day with the

Lover's Chocolate Indulgence for Two

No, it's not a desert.  It's a spa body treatment at The Meritage Resort.  This chocolaty treat is a 2-hour slice of Heaven, beginning with a peppermint mocha scrub, followed by a chocolate body wrap, followed by a 25-minute massage, followed by a 25-minute facial.  And, when it's over?  A glass of sparkling wine and chocolates.  The cost is $500 per couple, or $250 per person.  The contact info is:
