Well, my good friend BB,
You should talk to Milo Minderbender about his chocolate-covered cotton.
And that would be...Egyptian cotton.
kind regards,

O yeah, chocolate covered espresso beans. Of course, some evil genius combined strong coffee with ice cream and I was doomed.

Chocolate covered cotton, Ben? Migod. I've been missing out.

I gotta say, the only thing I enjoy covered in chocolate is more chocolate.

Or maybe a BLT, but I dream.
Gain and loss, status and disgrace,
censure and praise, pleasure and pain:
these conditions among human beings are inconstant,
impermanent, subject to change.

Knowing this, the wise person, mindful,
ponders these changing conditions.
Desirable things don’t charm the mind,
undesirable ones bring no resistance.

His welcoming and rebelling are scattered,
gone to their end,
do not exist.

With one of these, your dream can become reality ...

No, not really.
Just read Catch-22!

Actually, you have been missing out on my now-famous muesli slice.
The last batch I made I included conserved morello cherry. The magic combination of dark chocolate and morello cherry in the slice is sublime.
