And several lobbying groups reported providing refreshments of one kind or another not only to groups of legislators but to the governor's staff, as well.
Cornerstone Research and Development reported spending $325.18 on hot chocolate for lawmakers and Huntsman's staff on Jan. 11 and Jan. 14.
And several Utah-based companies, including Neways Inc. and NuSkin Enterprises, gave away more than $2,500 in product samples during the session, mostly to lawmakers and their staff members but also to members of the executive branch.
