Shelling causes you to be mindful. You can't really go on your phone or computer while shelling. It's a nice, deliberate activity that I've been enjoying lately.

Cracking open the shells like a dextrous monkey

the shell makes the snack. the little cracking sound as it snaps apart in your fingers is almost worth it on its own. i love sharing them (my mom and i used to do this often growing up) and watching them pile up. itās messy, but not too messy. itās fussy, but not too fussy.
i like the taste too.

This is specifically for NYC people. In Ridgewood Queens there is a hole in the wall high quality chocolate shop.
Itās run by an eccentric and amazing man named Constantine and his wife. He will talk your ear off for a half an hour about āthe benefitsā of chocolate and how itās a panacea for pretty much everything. How big chocolate gives away most of the cocoa butter to the cosmetic industry. Heāll also talk to you about how he asks ChatGPT about chocolate and itās wrong a lot of the time.
Youāll then buy a bar even though itās small and $10. But you will go home and have a little piece after dinner and never taste chocolate the same way againā¦

Ceramic pans are unfortunately not very long lasting, once the coating is damaged you canāt really fix it. Most of these pans also lose their nonstick qualities after a while.
I suggest investing in a carbon steel or cast iron pan, which can be re-seasoned if damaged. Or stainless steel which is pretty indestructible as far as I can tell. These are lifelong pans!

I did it this morning, meditated, read a short story, watched the sun rise, and then got to work!
