I wonder if photos like this make them think they’re relatable? I mean not everybody has a neat and organized space, but it looks like the top is off the baking soda? Ew. I do not have a chocolate drawer because my one butt kitchen barely has any drawers, but I do have a cardboard box of chocolate in one of my lower cabinets. If I get a freezer, I’m gonna move all the chocolate to the freezer. (I’ve been making a pro/con freezer list.) And yes, I did buy nine bags of chocolate chips today because I’d actually run out!
 
Btw,I couldn’t find full sized candy canes at the grocery store this year that weren’t weird colors or flavors. WM listed ones I thought would work, till I saw they were hot dog flavored 🤢
 
Um, I have A LOT of ccocolate and I just ordered a 12 pack of Lindt white chocolate bars from Amazon because their price was amazing and I really like how nicely it melts, especially for peppermint bark. Hello, my name is Barbara and I am a chocoholic.......
 
ooohh...save a few of those bars for cream cheese icing. Lindt white chocolate is all I use now for that. You get to avoid the icky powdered sugar taste when icing a carrot cake. Rose Levy Beranbaum and Shirley Corriher both recommend this over 10X icing.
