Life’s simple pleasures…
A box of Baci!!! One of my favorite chocolates! Thank you, Auntie Cita! 
Each piece of this luscious dark chocolate with roasted hazelnut comes with a romantic love note inside. See what I got:
“Jupiter from on high laughs at the perjuries of lovers”
Hmmm… Glad that part of my life is over.
Next note, please!!!
