True! It’s the anticipation of that square of mint dark chocolate that I allow myself before practicing the lute that motivates me to go up to my studio and practice, even when I feel too tired to do so! (hmmm…but once I get there, that chocolate does taste kinda good…)
well, yes, I don’t know if it’s true that it’s EVEN, the pleasure, but they are hand in hand 🙂 And you play the lute??? That is sooooo cool. You’re amazing.
hmmmm…. i don’t think “than” is able to directly follow “as great”.
either “…as great/as…” or “…greater/than…” work, though.
and, speaking of chocolate, have you tried any of your handcrafted-in-Telluride _Carnal Chocolate__?

I have, and hugely recommend them. I think they’re at (nearly) all the Farmers’ Markets, once they start up again.
I did get to try them … Kierstin bought them for all of us Burl Gurls for Christmas. Very good. 🙂
I have the same problem as Ed Brummel with the grammar…. and that chocolate handcrafted in Telluride sounds mighty good!
fixed! I must have changed my mind mid poem which sentence structure I was going to use!
