Mike Montreuil: EASTER

.
It's early on this Easter Sunday morning and something strange has happened to the kitchen. There are foil covered chocolate eggs in the coffee tin, the sugar container and even in the coffee carafe. Even the utensils drawer is littered with chocolate. Peter Rabbit and his brethren were busy last night. Perhaps my animal loving daughter had a say in the matter.

This poses a dilemma this early in the morning. Do I get my caffeine from the chocolate strewn about the kitchen or do I take time to wait for the warmth of a coffee sweetened with laughter?
