To Die For
To Die For My serotonin levels are through the roof! I honestly cannot be any happier if I tried, thanks to this triple decker chocolate cake no doubt, I tried a dozen times and have not mastered the art that is my grandmother’s recipe. Seriously, this cake is to die for! And that is exactly what happened all thanks to my selfishness, I’m brought out of my memories by the baker asking if I wanted a slice of the free triple decker chocolate cake on special today. I almost puke myself simply because I can’t think of anything more repulsive than that cake, I’d eat fried worms off the side of the road before I eat another piece of chocolate cake or anything chocolate for that matter. I look at him in disgust and shake my head no all while trying to keep this huge lump of vomit down, I’m sure he’s labeled me as weird by now, because who doesn’t love chocolate, I might be the only one in the world who doesn’t like chocolate simply by choice and I never will, I don’t deserve to be happy and I surely don’t want the memories of my grandmother’s ill fate coming back to me.

The Call of The Siren
THE CALL OF THE SIREN “Matt, have you packed everything you need for this ultimate beach get away?”, asked Avisa, Matt’s mother. “I wish you would stop calling it that mom, its only a trip to the beach”, “call it what you want but I have waited for this saltwater therapy for three weeks.” My husband David, my best friend Kelly and her husband Charlie are going with us along with our sons Matt and Adam. Us girls had spent three weeks planning this trip and we wanted nothing to ruin it, after all we deserve a break. We gather the last of our things and text Charlie and Kelly, we will meet them at Siren Island. I did some research on this place and thought it would be an interesting getaway, it is rated one of the most mystical beaches in Connecticut.
