Review
The long awaited Chocolate Book from Mena is out. I was looking forward to seeing this book all last year as it was under creation. I learned so much about chocolate, in this tiny package of a book. I am diving into the recipe section with delight. The recipes are so easy a young person could make them, which makes them realistic to accomplish for me with my crazy busy schedule. Drawings were done by her Kiddos - how cute is that. Go check it out.
