80% off Valentines sweets at the store! Pretty much all that's left are those little conversation hearts, but they go well sprinkled in a mug of hot chocolate and whipped cream.

... People actually stick conversation hearts into hot chocolate?

Yes, they're very good.

This is the first time that I've ever heard of anyone putting the hearts in hot chocolate. Marshmallows, sure, but not candy anything. Not unless it's sprinkles.

I think a person could put anything in hot chocolate that was sweet. I once tried pretzels in it.

I like chocolate covered pretzels, but the idea of dipping pretzels in hot chocolate is just... That sounds like it would be overly salty.

It's a nice combination, sweet and salty. I think it's all about choosing the right sort of pretzel. If it simply gets too salty you just have to add more hot chocolate!

Of course. I'm nothing if not resourceful!

Then I'll have to eventually try this.

I didn't know people did that. I might try it, except I'm not sure about eating any Valentines sweets right now.

I don't suppose it's the normal thing to do, but I enjoy adding them to my hot chocolate.

Were you part of the Valentine's day fiasco, Chuuya?

I don't really eat them, so I don't know if it's normal or not either.

Ugh, yes. Did you?

No, I was spared this time. I'm very sorry you were a part of it though.

I hate this place sometimes. Glad it skipped you, though.

I don't hate it, but I wish the counters were lower. I'm tired of having to climb up onto the counter to make toast in the morning.

You don't have any footstools?

I use a chair sometimes, but it's easier and quicker to climb up onto the counters than drag a chair over.

Guess that would get annoying. I wonder if there's anyone who can make the counters lower.

That would be nice.. I wouldn't want to have anything altered though in case the Dome decides to send me back home.

Take a bag, smash them into power, and they can go on just about anything. Cookies, cakes, pancakes, hot chocolate...

We've got like, a gallon bucket of the stupid things.

Did nobody buy any? But also now I want some for coffee.

More like, they overstocked them like crazy. I think there was an entire pallet at Walmart.

I'll swing by and grab a few bags. They'll either ruin my coffee or make it exceptionally delicious. Either way, they'll get consumed.

One idea I saw was to crush them up, and use them to rim glasses for drinks.

Huh. I wonder how much Sara would kill me if I did that at work.

What wonderful ideas! I'll look into using them that way.

There are websites devoted to what to do with those things after V-Day.

Did anyone show you how to use the internet last time? Leo might be able to help.

They tried, but I am not the best at technology. Would he? I'll have to ask him the next time I'm at the shop.

Oh, my God, those things are amazing. May have gone overboard on them the first Valentine's Day I was here.

Me as well! We don't have so many things in Middle-earth that they have here in the Land of Madison. The ice cream has been one of my favorites.

Do you have ice cream where you're from?

Kind of? I mean, it was a thing in my world and then everything went all to shit with the zombies and there wasn't ice cream anymore.

I've never been a fan of the sour candies though, those Sweet Tart ones? Give me the normal candy hearts any day of the week.

Nah, I like the chocolates that are shaped like little bottles of alcohol, and have actual alcohol in them.

I was unaware they had those! They would be my favorites as well!
