Food for the lonely heart.

Friday I had the day off.  Sometimes I have fun on days off.  But it was cold.  My neighbor's dog barked for 4 hours straight starting at 6:45 am.  And I missed my mom.  It's been 49 days since I moved away from home for good.  For good for good.  I've moved away from home 5 times before, but I always ended up back.  During the summer.  On weekends.  I kept half my wardrobe there and half at whatever residence I hung my hat that year.  [Side note, I don't know that I ever hang my hats, usually I leave them wherever I've taken them off, often the floor or shoved into a drawer in the bathroom].  In conclusion.  I now have all my underwear under one roof.  And it happens to be 250 miles from my mom.

In order to soothe my lonely heart.  I made these:

Not a culinary feat by any means.  Not even something to be proud of.  I melted chocolate chips, drizzled them on pretzels and ate.  Like a glutton.  Crying a little.  Until I called my mom and told her about my snack.  Then we did like we used to.  We shared a horrible idea of a snack together.  I crunching my chocolate covered pretzels on one side of the phone, whilst she crunched potato chips on the other.  My mom is the best.

Also the best you ask?  These:
