Food of the gods
It's 1:45am, and I'm sitting here eating chocolate coz of a conversation I've just had with BP. He started it -- he had to mention CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES!
BP: "I usually get Chipsmores, but there's also a large tin of Kjeldsens."
Me: "Butter cookies? Not my thing."
BP: "Why not?"
Me: "Dunno, chocolate is what does it for me. The butter cookies, I only like the round one with the raisins. The rest are okay... but that one, that's the one I love the most."
BP: "Ah... it's the passion thing. Chocolate does that to people; single lonely people, in particular."
Me: "Don't. Make. Me. Start."
BP: "I'm also speaking from experience."
Me: "But I thought most of the chocoholics were women. I've never heard any guy rhapsodise about chocolate."
BP: "We don't -- we're not poetic enough. We just know it works."
Me: "But you guys never say anything about it!"
BP: "Most consider chocolate a snack, so it's no big deal."
Me: "Sacrilege! Chocolate is not a snack, it's a FOOD GROUP!"
BP: "That's further than where I take it, but I don't blame you."
Me: "Gosh, now you are making me crave chocolate at ONE IN THE MORNING! Gaaah!"
