A Chocolate Meltdown

choc-meltdown.jpgBad news. According to some article I read yesterday while sitting in Stats lecture, there is a severe cocoa shortage happening as we speak.

I am not really an economics/business minded person, so I can’t tell you why there is a shortage, but it doesn’t matter. All that matters is that there is. And I am scared. My life revolves around chocolate. I turn to my good friend Cocoa in times of happiness and times of extreme boy-related-depression. How can I go on without it?! 

- What will I nosh on late into the night when I am studying for finals?

- How will I be able to warm up without my hot cocoa after a long day of walking to class in these frigid Michigan winters?

- What will I eat to make myself feel better when my boyfriend and I get into a fight because I see him flirting with another (much skankier/worse dressing) girl at the bar?

- And, most importantly, what will I pour all over his body when he apologizes, telling me I’m the only one he wants/needs/could ever hope for, and we have mind blowing make-up sex?

Seriously, I am distraught. A life without chocolate is almost as bad as a life without my really fabulous vintage Gucci bag. Or without sex. And a life without sex drives me to eat chocolate. OH MY GOD! What if I can’t get either!? I need to get to the store now and stock up. You may think I’m crazy, but you will be singing a different tune when Nestle taps out in your time of need and I am swimming in a of Hershey’s wrappers.

Tell us what you're thinking...

A Vegetarian Thanksgiving? Yes, Please

I’m not a vegetarian, but I have a vegetarian boyfriend (and an aversion to all things Thanksgiving). I’m going to his parents’ house for the holidays this year and, luckily, they’re tolerant of nontraditional main dishes, so we’re going to experiment a little.
