When I find myself losing concentration during my studies, I go to the bookstore. But as usual, the over-commercialization of bookstore chains have wrought theatrical foods to pop up alongside the stacks. It reminds of a conversation in the Simpsons:

Lisa: Let’s go the bookstore.
Marge: Sure, I could use a muffin.

We have pumped one more arena with artery clogging tidbits of goodness.

Tippy and I decided to go to Barnes and Nobles, and I couldn’t resist being tempted by the chocolate items. I’m a big fan of dark chocolate, especially surrounded by concoctions made of flour and butter. I decided to get the chocolate chunk brownie–and oh, was it good. Tippy doesn’t like dark chocolate too much–she finds it bitter. But I find the bitter and intense sweetness to be primally filling.

In any case, the chocolate brownie was as good as it looks (pictured above). They don’t skimp on the chocolate chunks, and even add milk chocolate chunks for good measure.

Whenever I eat really sweet desserts I tend to eat it fast. I think this is rather abnormal. Usually, people enjoy their rich desserts slowly. I wish I could do that; it always seems like desserts taste better going down fast. Yes, I am abnormal.
