It's been a rainy cold spring so far, this makes it hard to be creative. How do I overcome cabin or factory fever?

As the seasons change so does the way we handle our chocolate.

I've been the head Chocolatier of Dream Chocolate for a little over a year now and when people ask me what I do for a living I say "I'm a Chocolatier". This either confuses or excites people.
When people are confused it's because they don?t think that chocolatier is really a word. They look at me for a minute and when they realize that I'm not joking they ask if that?s like being a musketeer. I laugh and explain what I do and that?s just the title I was given when I was hired. This is usually the beginning of a long conversation about different titles for my position.
The people who get excited ask me right away how I stay so skinny working with chocolate all the time. Well the truth of the matter is when you're around chocolate over 40 hours a week it's really not that appealing. I taste every batch I flavor and that?s enough for me.
So yes chocolatier is a real word in the world of chocolate. This is how Wikipedia defines Choco...
