Some Things Should NOT Last Forever!

My sister-in-law recently told me about a necklace made of real chocolate dipped in resin. Can you imagine, hanging chocolate around your neck? A chocolate bar belongs on the palate, not in the jewelry box! The whole thing reminds me of my own great idea...as a teenager, to save a bit of chocolate "Forever." My boyfriend at the time had given me a giant chocolate kiss for Valentine's Day. I couldn't bear to eat it and not have a token of his adoration. So I painted it with varnish...it looked so shiny and delicious. But, soon turned white and disgusting and I had to throw it away! What a waste. Don't learn this the hard way...Chocolate is meant to be eaten, the sooner the better!
