What is something lovely that has happened to you lately?

Or at least something very interesting?

Comments

[allthatgleamsisgold]

Yes.

There was... fruit on it? And coated in something sweet.

[sprent]

That sounds delicious. I wonder if it was honey?

I love cakes. (For the record.) You'll have to tell me where you got it.

[allthatgleamsisgold]

[Noted.]

No, I've eaten plenty of hives before. I know what honey tastes like. It was opaque, sticky, and a pale pink colour.

It was an Orlesian patisserie in Hightown. Les Délices de Montsimmard.

(Pause!)

Hives? You've eaten hives?

[allthatgleamsisgold]

Yes. And? I am not in the habit of wasting good food.

[sprent]

But — the bees...

[allthatgleamsisgold]

They are very nutritious.

[sprent]

Don't they hurt?
