Even though chocolate was probably a popular gift for Valentine's Day Friday, that didn't stop people from flocking to Homewood for Chocolate Festival.Saturday was the village's twelfth year for the event.
Aside from a wide variety of treats on sale, there was also live music and baking demonstrations.
Organizers say the event is a great way to meet your neighbors and enjoy sweet treats in the middle of winter.
