Chocolate 101: The Trappings of an Addiction



I sat myself down intending to write about one of the dozens of things I've made since school started: kimchi, Burmese eggplant stew, elk and yak short ribs, saffron cookies, a menagerie of canned fruits and vegetables. But the photographs of what I made this weekend overpowered me. I'll get to the rest eventually, maybe when I'm locked in a room with no distractions and my hands tied to the keyboard, well out of reach of the cookie jar.

This Sunday, with no desire to work on my thesis, read Euripidean fiction, or do much of anything else, I decided to make chocolate.
