The Chocolate Factory (The Sisterhood of the Traveling Susan Apron)

Hold your breath
Make a wish
Count to three



Come with me
And you'll be
In a world of
Pure imagination
Take a look
And you'll see
Into your imagination



We'll begin
With a spin
Traveling in
The world of my creation
What we'll see
Will defy
Explanation



If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Wanta change the world?
There's nothing
To it



There is no
Life I know
To compare with
Pure imagination
Living there
You'll be free
If you truly wish to be



If you want to view paradise

Anything you want to, do it
Wanta change the world?
There's nothing

You'll be free
If you truly
Wish to be

RECIPES Orange Truffles at About.com I followed everything except the tempering at the end, which you don't really need with Baker's chocolate. My favorite tip in this recipe was, "Dust your hands with cocoa." ;) Chocolate Caliente (Hot Chocolate) This is the type of hot chocolate I grew up with in Miami. It's richer than powdered cocoa made with water, but not as rich as they serve it in Spain. An espresso cup or demitasse is enough for me. -1/2 cup of milk (I use 2% organic, my mom used evaporated, you may use your preference) -1/2 oz of chopped semisweet chocolate -Heat over stove top while whisking until sides begin to bubble, but DO NOT BOIL -For a thicker drink just add 1/4 cup heavy cream and more chocolate Banana-Nutella Muffins Besides the obvious ingredient of Nutella piped in the center, if I share my banana bread recipe I'd have to kill you, so I think you'll be safer using your own. ;) You know I'm being silly, I'm just sure all of you have a banana bread recipe you love.

WARNING: I don't recommend having all of these chocolaty treats on the same day.
