what, addiction? never heard of it.

lunch, Paris slimline:

  • grilled Thai peanut chicken skewers
  • jasmine rice
  • green and royal burgundy string beans
  • cucumber
  • rainbow carrots
  • cheese bunny crackers (Annie's Organic...we're currently re-addicted to them) with a small container of ranch for dipping hidden underneath
  • in the mini sidecar, random pieces of chocolate caramel cut from the big block in the fridge

If you've been following my bento pictures for awhile, you've no doubt noticed that many of them include a bit of chocolate in some form, usually my beloved dark chocolate covered raisins. It's in small quantities -- no more than an ounce, sometimes less -- but it seems to be just enough to satiate my craving for chocolate.

It's been WAY too long since I had any chocolate in my lunch, if my withdrawal symptoms are anything to go by, so you can imagine the cry of delight/relief when Sal mentioned that there was still some chocolate caramel in the fridge that he made for one of his class demonstrations awhile back. I did not wrap my arms around the big block of deliciousness encased in parchment paper and promise my soul and future progeny that my dark mistress would never leave me again. I have my pride after all, and anyway, you can't prove anything.

Sacrifice it to the Great Stomach Gods and lo, they were well pleased with my offering.
