Chocolate Is My Comfort Food

Chocolate is my comfort food
No matter how much pain I am in
I can scarf down a little eight ounce Hershey Bar
or a trio of Peanut Butter Cups.

German chocolate cake? 
MMMMMM oh, yes please.
Let me get cozy in my comfortable recliner.
Can you make sure it is chilled and garnish it with a cherry?
I take my comfort foods seriously.

Hey! Is that a bit of....
My husband comes in to see me eat it off the floor
"That was something Sophie dropped yesterday."
It is not like Sophie to drop food
But then again
It is not food.

I know right? I am running behind you, trying to get to the freezer first in case there is only one.
