Hello darling friends, I am here to announce my latest project!
As you may have heard, I’ve been in the realm of Chocolate for the past 9months, thinking perhaps of formulating
my own brand but realizing that just like lip balm making, it’s not easy to create your own product.
I was reminded of difficulties of this process while making my first few batches of raw Chocolate. While grinding cocoa nibs to get it’s paste like form, my grinder burned out dead, and then the Pyrex we were using blew up in my husbands face… Shattered pieces of glass everywhere even a piece hitting his eye…, luckily he was okay, but not exactly off to a good start. I realized most inspiring chocolate makers don’t necessary make their own chocolate, but me— I am about the whole experience of learning and knowing what is in my product.
I’ve been a label reader my whole adult life… simply because I like good products, products that are made well. everything that I use, from the chocolate I eat to the brand of my face products, it has to come from a good source.
I have learned through the process of making things from scratch that fluidity isn’t an easy as I think it would be. I find the same process in my writings… I am very passionate about writing, It’s makes me happy, but I am not perfect. There are times when I’ve laid out a good story, then come to find out after I’ve posted it, that there are several typos… I suddenly I feel embarrassed calling myself a writer, but I have learned spiritually and thoughtfully, that living is about learning, and I will always be a humble student.
I am challenged and determine on every thing I do and make to be prosperous…, not just for me but everyone who is involved in my life, and I’m not necessary talking about money here… more so about value, experience and overall abundance. I am one of those beings who is not attracted to competition, to me it’s an unnecessary flow of life. I’m believer that everyone you meet has some beautiful to offer and that could make for wonderful collaborations. I have met many in the course of my life, that have met a person or sparked an idea that is of value in light of business that I am in, or the social gatherings I bring, it’s something I know my personality relates to because for one, I am all about the connecting our kindred spirits.
I may not be a chocolate maker now, nor the most amazing writer, but the wind can shift it’s course at anytime. the idea of Chocolate is still here… In fact it has hovered around me all these months and like all my grand ideas and epiphanies I realize how I can incorporate and streamline my thoughts leading me to the bigger picture.. Follow me??
