truffle pig

my mom once lost one of her diamond earrings, and my sister catherine miraculously found it. when she told me this i compared her to a truffle pig, but she could find diamonds instead. she didn't like that analogy, instead thinking that i was calling her a pig, not a finder of expensive things.

my husband works in a chocolate shop, and so far he's only brought me a few pieces of candy. last night though he brought me a box of truffles! 18 scrumptous goo-filled chocolates all for me! i only had one last night (well i split it with josh) because i am trying to pace myself so i don't turn into a truffle pig. josh thought this would be a good sample so we could avoid the not so good ones when we come home in October. there were two of every flavor except there was only one strawberry and one coffee! these will probably turn out to be the best of course. so i will save them for last. i'll be taking orders for christmas soon!

I just wanted to let everyone know that I understood the truffle pig/diamond pig analogy. Let me say that a truffle pig has to go through years of training, I was born with it.
