Every day of the week the princess asked me for chocolate, and every time she asked I was not able to fulfill her request. Finally, before the fifth day of the work week I actually went to the store and purchased a gourmet bar of fine dark chocolate made by the Ghirardelli Company. I brought it to work, and I awaited the princess’ predictable request. When no request came I eventually asked, “Am I supposed to tell you I have chocolate, or am I supposed to not tell you I have chocolate due to the calories involved?”
Her reply was terse. “Either way I don’t want any. I went to the movies last night and gorged myself with candy. I do want some crackers though.”
I then told her that I did not have any crackers.
