For the Want of Chocolate

I went with Sara last week to an Activity Days ice cream party. There were these really cute decorations -- sundae glasses with M&Ms on the bottom, then pink Jelly Belly candies, and then white taffies on top. So it looked like ice cream with whipped cream on top. 


There I am, just staring and staring at it. Well, the M&Ms, mostly. Finally I tipped the candy out so I could have some chocolate. 'Cause I wanted some chocolate, dammit. After I had a few M&Ms, I was told that these candy centerpieces were actually prizes to be given out later. Hmm. Then I tried to pour all the candy back into the glass while my friends near me were busting up laughing. It wasn't as pretty as before, but it was mostly complete. 


That's when I found the bowl of free M&Ms at another table.
