Thanks to Jim for sending:

“Chocolate Chocolate was sold
They were wonderful merchants.
They will be missed.”

Their website says:

“Sisters Frances and Ginger Park were carefree young women when the sudden death of their father turned their world upside down. Reeling from the loss, they turned to each other – and the comfort of good chocolate – to numb their pain as they tried to figure out a way to create a shared future. The answer turned out to be as simple as their childhood dream: open a chocolate shop.

In January 1984, Chocolate Chocolate opened its doors in downtown Washington, DC.

Soon thereafter, Ginger’s husband Skip became a part of the chocolate dream. Over time, the CC family grew with the wondrous Estelle, Koomo, Justin, Marge, and Wilma.

And the rest is chocolate history.”
