In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If working with chunks of baker's chocolate or bars of chocolate, it will need to be cut into small pieces with a sharp knife before use. Note that chocolate chips and most chocolate wafers are usually small enough to use without chopping. Spread the chocolate out evenly in the top bowl of a double boiler or in a heat-resistant glass bowl that can fit safely and securely on top of a saucepan. You should never let water come into direct contact with water as you melt it. Doing so may cause the chocolate to seize up, and the texture and consistency will become nearly impossible to work with. Fill the double boiler bottom or a saucepan with roughly 2 inches (5 cm) of water. You should only use enough water to just barely fill the bottom pan without touching the bottom of your glass bowl once you place the bowl inside. Place the top part of the double boiler back into the bottom and place the entire thing on the stove. Heat over low heat until it begins to simmer. Do not let the water come into direct contact with the bottom of the bowl as it simmers. You need the steam to reach the bottom of the bowl, but the water itself will be too hot. Make sure that the bowl you use for your double boiler fits securely enough to prevent steam from getting into your chocolate as it melts. The chocolate needs steam to melt, but the moisture from the steam could be enough on its own to cause the chocolate to seize. Stir the chocolate continuously with a spatula until it melts and becomes smooth. Continue stirring until there are no lumps. This may take a few minutes. Place the bowl on a dry kitchen towel to remove the moisture from the bottom. Heat the corn syrup in the microwave for about 30 seconds to warm it up slightly. The corn syrup should not be hot. If it gets too hot, it could burn the chocolate. You could use room temperature corn syrup, but warm corn syrup will be easier to blend in. The amount of corn syrup you need will vary depending on the type of chocolate you are using. Chocolate with a higher fat content needs less corn syrup, while chocolate with a lower fat content and higher cacao content will need more corn syrup. Add the warm corn syrup to the melted chocolate and immediately begin stirring it in. The chocolate will stiffen as soon as you add the corn syrup. Do not over-mix the chocolate at this point. You only need to mix it about 20 times or so. If you want to add color to an entire batch of white chocolate, the easiest way to do so is to add the food coloring into the chocolate as you add the corn syrup and blend them both in simultaneously. You can only add color to white modeling chocolate. If you only want to add color to a small amount of modeling chocolate, you can do so later on by kneading it in after the modeling chocolate has already cooled. Wrap the chocolate in plastic wrap or a large plastic bag and let it cool until it becomes soft and pliable. In warm environments, the amount of time it takes the chocolate to cool may be longer. Under some circumstances, it could take up to 24 hours. Note that you could also quick-cool the modeling chocolate in the refrigerator, but letting it cool gradually at room temperature will make the modeling chocolate more stable. To refrigerate the chocolate at this point, wrap it in plastic wrap or a plastic bag and place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 2 hours. Knead it with your hands for 20 to 30 seconds to smooth it out and make it moldable. Knead the chocolate as you would knead bread dough. Flatten it out, fold it over, turn it, and repeat Keep the chocolate in a cool place away from sunlight until ready to use. If wrapped well and stored correctly, modeling chocolate can last up to a year. Do not keep the modeling chocolate in the refrigerator. If it becomes too hard after several weeks or months of storage, knead another 1 Tbsp (15 ml) or so of corn syrup into the modeling chocolate before using it.
Summary: Cut the chocolate into small pieces. Place the chocolate in the top part of a double boiler. Fill the bottom of the double boiler with water. Simmer the water. Melt the chocolate. Remove the bowl from the double boiler. Warm up the corn syrup. Blend the corn syrup into the chocolate. Add food coloring, if desired. Let the chocolate cool slightly at room temperature for 1 to 3 hours. Knead the modeling chocolate until smooth. Store the chocolate in a resealable plastic bag.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: . Resentment happens when you don't forgive what someone has done to you. To help move on past the resentment, you must forgive your spouse for what they have done. This helps you both move forward and repair the damage caused by the resentment. Forgiving someone means that you acknowledge a wrong was done, but then you don't let it control your emotions and relationship. You accept the person was wrong, apologized, or didn't mean to hurt you. Sometimes, people are unable to forgive because they want to feel right and be validated. This can impede your ability to heal and move on. Make sure that you have actually asked for help before getting angry at your partner for not helping. A series of hurts becomes resentment when you hold on to the wrongs and keep replaying it over and over in your mind. This lets it fester and become toxic. To deal with the resentment and move forward, you have to let go of the destructive feelings. To let go of these feelings, you have to understand that the negative feelings are in the past. They do not control you, your emotions, or your actions. What happens in the present isn't the same as what happened in the past. Understand that people make mistakes. You cannot control what people do, but you can control your reactions. Letting go of the resentment allows you to heal, which is healthy for you. It helps you be able to build and have healthy, loving relationships. You can deal with resentment by changing the way you think. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a technique where you change negative thought patterns by replacing them with healthier thoughts. When you notice your resentment, acknowledge it. Then, instead of dwelling on those thoughts, tell yourself, "I will not obsess about this. I will let it go." Then imagine yourself letting the feelings go, as if they were a balloon or smoke. When you sit down to discuss your resentment with your spouse, you should come up with ways to solve the problem or change the behavior. Ask for help if you need it from your spouse. Needing help is a common source of resentment, so ask for it to help resolve the feelings of resentment. You may say, "I need your help with the household chores. I cannot do everything myself. I think we should split up the work more fairly" or "I want you to spend more time with me/the family on the weekends instead of going fishing with your friends." While you are dealing with the resentment in the marriage, don't shut each other out. You may still be hurt, so you don't touch each other, hug, kiss, or have sex. This isn't the answer. Instead, focus on overcoming the resentment by connecting again physically. You may have to consciously hug and kiss when before you would have done it as a natural action. Have sex with each other every day or two. This can help the two of you come to a better connection and start rebuilding the relationship, even if emotionally you both are still working through the issuesthis way you don't create an additional problem.
Summary:
Forgive Let go of your resentment. Use cognitive behavioral techniques. Propose solutions to the problem. Find time for physical connection.
