Chocolate is my business!

Hi all -

If you haven't heard yet, I have become a Independent Chocolatier with Dove Chocolate DiscoveriesTM. I'm really excited about it. I give chocolate tasting parties like Tupperware or Pampered Chef - except you actually get to try the chocolate. It sounded like it was just up my alley - especially since Kris laughs when I head for the chocolate fondue first at his work's Christmas party (boy did I miss that this year). Anyway, I think it will be a little harder for me since I have friends in so many places around the country, but hopefully it will work. I wanted to do it, so that I had a good reason to get out of the house and maybe make a little money. My first party is on the 20th with another one the next day. My mom is having one on the 6th and I'm still looking for someone in Michigan to hold one on the 7th - so if you're interested let me know.


So far, I've gotten a lot of chocolate sent to my house and Ryan and I tried a little bit of it yesterday. We tempered some chocolate to make candies and dipped our strawberries in it. Ryan loved it! I also made some truffles. I have some friends coming over on Thursday to taste test things with me, so I know what I'd like to do for parties.


It's pretty exciting for me. I keep having to remind myself that this is my new job. Hard to believe when you're at home the whole time (so far).

And to end - here's a picture of Ryan eating the chocolate yesterday.
