Chocolate

Well, I' bet you've been wondering what has been taking me so long to update this blog. Or... maybe you haven't. But, regardless, I'm going to es'plain myself. :) Just 'cause I want to.

Did you know that my family owns a chocolate company? Well, we do. And I am the Chocolatier! I make all of our chocolates, from Fudge to Chocolate Bark to Painted Turtles to Truffles. The picture below is of our Turtle Pretzels, a wonderful variation on the traditional chocolate and caramel dipped pretzel rods.



(F.Y.I.-- The above are one of my favorite things that we make. De-licious.)



So, this is what I've been doing for the past three weeks. Like crazy. I do this all the time, but I figured out that I have made approx. 500 lbs. of fudge alone during the past little while. And, just in case you were wondering, that's a lot more than I usually make in a short period of time. :) Plus a whole whack of other chocolates on top of that.



Thanks for checking up on the blog, and make sure to check back again soon! Pretty soon (ish) I'm going to have a post up about making gingerbread houses with the family (and like this post, photos will be done by of Figgie Photography). It should be a good one!
