Day 8; Chocolate!!! Yum! yum! yum! Slightly over the word count but hey, it's chocolate! I could write a thousand words on the stuff!!
I loved the night shift at Harrods. Walking around the store in
the death of night was a privilege especially in the Food halls which were
usually crowded by day. Now they’re empty and I could browse at my leisure (well
security patrol). The smell would hit you first; that sweet, unmistakable smell
of chocolate. Your eyes are drawn to the perfect displays of little delicate chocolates,
all lined up, some in pretty foils, others showing their glossy nakedness. I
would mentally pick out my favourites, all presented in a little (medium) sized
gold box just waiting to be opened and devoured. I did love my job and on
leaving did get one of those gold boxes.

DeleteSounds so good. All this talk about chocolate I'm now getting anxious that I don't have any at hand. Since it's midnight over here, finding a store open might be a bit difficult. ;)

DeleteI've heard so much about the yummy Harrods choc - perhaps one day I'll get a gold box too! Well, I can dream, can't I?? :-)
ReplyDeleteOh you must! better if bought for you but still yummy if bought yourself. It's worth it. xx
DeleteI would have a hard time working there especially wanting to go on a chocolate raid.
