The Last Few Weeks in Gratitude Form

Dear Nutella,

Thank you for being made with skim milk. You are one of the most fattening, delicious foods I have ever eaten, and at least we know you're trying. Me too. Keep up the good work.                           

Love,         Liz

Dear Biceps,
Thank you for your recent growth. It's nice to see you finally measuring up to the way I talk about you.

Dear Science Fiction Books,

Thank you for the way that when I explain your plots to those around me, I feel like a completely crazy person.

Love,         Liz

Dear Nail Polish,

Dear Times I Cry Excessively for Very Short Periods of Time,

Thank you for making my sleep so delicious.

Dear Strawberry Jam, 

Thanks for falling directly off my toast onto the paper towel I made you on instead of onto the carpet below me. The delightful whimsy of such circumstances is a welcome start to my morning. 

Love,         Liz
