What's on your mind?

Hmm... I reached out to a few old friends I hadn't talked to in a while last week and not a single one got back to me. Did their numbers change? Did they die? Or do they just not even care enough to bother responding to me? I'm gonna go with the latter...

I was a bully in school. I never figured out why I was, but I did get to do a lot of thinking about the amount of lives I affected negatively.

I hope that's an experience every bully has to go through at some stage, because it's not pleasant and it sets you straight.

Anyone a fan of cacao nibs?

They are the beans from cacao/cocoa pods which are roasted and then parted from the protective husks and broken down into small pieces.

Essentially the thing above dark chocolate lol

I need to find something to do with them as on their own they are EXTREMELY bitter

What sorcery is this!? What in the world do you have that with??? Coffee?

it does not even taste like candy

it is a thing

I am not even sure how to describe it

It might depend on how heavy the card was, how big, and thin enough to fit through a mail slot, also if the card was too heavy and a lack of amount of stamps to cover it, perhaps?

Yeah, no, I was always (and still am) the 'lone wolf' type in group settings. I was extremely selective with whom I played/hung out with, and I only ever experienced one time being bullied by a boy... he never did it again. Nobody picks on me and gets away with it.

R.I.P. Miss Spaulding's bully.

Let us all learn the lesson of Miss Spaulding's bully least we meet the same fate. Amen

I was always kinda quiet, bullies didn't like me cause I was bigger, and not afraid of them. And it was just kind of instinctual for me to put up a wall and not let people get close enough to hurt me. The worst bullying I received that comes to mind is being picked last for sports and games, but I *always* made them pay for it.

You could probably slowly melt them down au bain marie on the stove with added sugar (or honey) for sweetening and coconut oil. The coconut oil will keep the chocolate smooth and liquidy while warm and will instantly harden the chocolate like 'magic shell' chocolate sauce if you drizzel it over ice cream (or anything cold).
