" I’m walking on air and I’m so excited. I just came home. I have a box of chocolates next to me — I’m eating them, but I only bite into those with the creamy filling to find out if they have nuts in them — if not, I don’t like them — so I press them back together, so they will look like new — and tomorrow I’ll give them to my mother and Therese.
