Ahh thank you all so much for commenting and for being interested in our restate sale…. it seriously means so much!!

We made a Facebook event where we’ll be dropping little sneak peeks of all the goodies — furniture, Disney magic, random household treasures, and probably a few “why do we even own this?” items 😂

Here’s the link:

Definitely RSVP so you don’t miss anything! Space inside is a bit tight, so we might have to do timed entry or limit how many people come in at once depending on turnout — we’ll keep everyone posted there!

If you’re not local (or just love online shopping in your pajamas), we also have a Depop shop with super low shipping:

Thank you again for supporting us — truly. Every little bit helps us get closer to starting our new life in Italy… and maybe, just maybe, finally owning a kitchen sink 😂🇮🇹

Here’s some pics of the gatti you’re helping become Italian! And the hubby you’re helping reunite with his family on a more frequent basis and a girl who dreams of history being fun and accessible for everyone!

WE CAN RESURRECT HER. 🕯️

I’m not being dramatic (I am). But there is a woman buried under her husband’s name and we have located the body — at AUCTION, no less — and we are bringing her back whether the curators like it or not. 💅

Meet Virginia da Vezzo (1601–1638): working *pittrice,* signed her own canvases, got her face engraved in 1626 with the word PITTRICE stamped around her head like a verified badge. The girl had RECEIPTS. And then she married Simon Vouet and four hundred years of art historians went “who?? the wife??” Sweetie. SHE WAS THE PLOT.

Oldest reunion-couch move in the book: be undeniable, marry the man, watch him take the confessional. And the diabolical part? No villain in the room. Just a marriage, a workshop, and an attribution system that quietly decided whose name a canvas deserved. They erased her and called it a love story. We’re calling it what it is. 🥂

So we did the unholy thing and found her on the auction block. One painting sold for FIVE HUNDRED AND FIFTY SEVEN DOLLARS. A woman who painted alongside the Caravaggisti, priced like a Zara dress. I am SO normal about this. (Not this one… this one is 40k)

Here’s the resurrection clause: she’s not dead. She was never dead. You just stopped saying her name. So say it. 🪦➡️👑

Wanna raise her with me? 🔮
📖 Read my Substack for the full story — link in stories.
📲 App: Invaluable
🔍 Search her under all three: Virginia Vouet / Virginia da Vezzo / Virginia Vezzi (they filed her three different ways — that’s the erasure in real time)

You didn’t know her. Now you do.

SHIPPING DATES ARE OPEN To celebrate where it all began, we are dropping our Retrospective Collection—the final batches of our chocolate history before we pack up the kitchen for good.

(Every order helps us furnish our DREAM so thank you!!!)

🚨 HOW TO GET YOUR BOX (PICKUP OR SHIPPING): 🚨
• 📦 PICKUP & SHIPPING BOTH AVAILABLE: Good news! You can choose to have your retrospective boxes shipped directly to your door, OR you can select local pickup to grab them from us before we head overseas!
• 📅 THE BATCH SCHEDULE: We are rolling these final boxes out across three specific blocks (available for both pickup and shipping):
◦ Batch 1: June 23rd & 24th
◦ Batch 2: July 14th & 15th
◦ Batch 3: July 21st & 22nd
• 💳 PAYMENT: To help us manage this massive transition, we will send an invoice for payment 3 weeks prior to your selected batch dates above.

What’s in the Retrospective? 🍫

This is a celebration of the boxes and flavors that started it all. We’re bringing back:
• 🥜 The Originals: Our very first peanut butter flavors.

SAVE THE LAST BATCH FOR… you — a curated retrospective of boxes featuring the absolute best of our historical magical chocolate archives.

This is your last chance to hold the magic, taste the obsession, and own a piece of this sweet little era before the tempering machine becomes a historical artifact.

THE TERMS OF THE ACQUISITION:
THE SHIPPING WINDOWS: We are running exactly two elite batches.

👉 Batch One: Ships June 23rd & 24th
👉 Batch Two: Ships July 14th & 15th
THE PRICING: A single box of pure luxury is $47, or secure a double order for $87 (shipping calculated at checkout).

THE CRUEL TRUTH: Space is strictly limited. There is no restock, no hidden vault, and no extensions. This is first-come, first-served. When the spots are gone, they disappear into the shadows of the Tiber forever.

If you have been waiting for a special occasion, this is your final curtain call.

Link drops at 10am tomorrow June 4th! Make sure to claim your box before the archives are sealed. 🛒🍫

And just in case… As you know, on July 7th I fly out to take up residence inside an ancient thought in the Castelli Romani hills. The ceilings are cathedral-height, the ghosts are strictly 19th-century intellectuals, and the kitchen... well, it doesn't exist. The universe decided that after 15 years of whispering this dream into existence, I should live on wine, espresso, and pure adrenaline.

Which brings us to the tragedy: The chocolate kitchen is officially closing. But we aren't slipping away quietly. We are going out with a grand, final performance.

To everyone who made this era so impossibly sweet: thank you. Let’s make this final batch a masterpiece. 💋

✈️The departure: Galileo and I leave July 7th. Dean and our feline aristocrats follow in late August. I’ve been whispering this dream into existence for 15 years, and it turns out the universe doesn’t say “no,” it just waits for you to be bold enough to say “now.”

The apartment:
We found our home. It has cathedral ceilings, a view of the vineyards, and the ghosts of every 19th-century artist who ever came to these hills to find their soul. The only thing it doesn’t have? A kitchen. 🍷🚫🍳

Apparently, the architects assumed I’d be too busy being a muse to boil an egg. I’m trading my microwave for a masterpiece, and honestly? It’s the best deal I’ve ever made. 💅

THE COUNCIL IS IN SESSION:
SHOP OUR LIFE:

We are purging the archives to fit into our new Italian life. Disney grails and vintage treasures are up for grabs. eBay links coming soon. 📦

THE FINAL BATCH: June and July are the last shipping windows for chocolates. Secure the magic! Links go up 10am Thurs June 4th. 🍫

⁉️Have you travelled with cats?!? DM me I have questions

What other questions do you have? I’ve been on the ground for 30 days and I’m ready to spill the tea (even if I have to boil the water on a portable burner). 👇
