I love my desserts. Half my blog feeds are food or baking related blogs. I bake almost weekly. I have my sweets almost daily.
Josey would understand. Because she has a secret stash of chocolate, cookies, cakes and other sweet bits at the back of her closet and these are her comfort food whenever she’s lonely and upset. After all, chocolate always makes us feel good right?
As typical of all chick lit or young adults books, The Sugar Queen is a book in which all wrongs are righted and situations never get seriously bad. Better still, dreams come true. But the lesson behind it: No point wallowing in a dessert if you don’t have the guts to get out and challenge life.
Perhaps a gentle reminder to me that the answers to life’s problems don’t end with the next bar of chocolate.
