Slowly I trudged down the sidewalk and up the steps to enter my haven. Tired from a long day’s work and what seemed an even longer commute home, I couldn’t unlock the door fast enough and proceed to the couch for a quiet evening without the family being home. The moment I stepped across the threshold, a chocolate-laced aroma that infiltrated the entire living space grabbed my attention. I immediately made like a bloodhound to the kitchen to investigate the enticing temptation. As I anxiously approached the kitchen, my mind filled with the desire to sinfully indulge in some chocolate chip cookies and cold milk. When I stepped around the corner expecting to find the desire of my lust, my excitement turned to dismay. There was nothing. Nada. Zilch. Not a single morsel in sight, or so I thought. Exhaling in disappointment I prepared for my retreat to the couch, when it caught my eye. A single crumb lay innocently on the tablecloth. It may not have been much, but this clue was the evidence needed for me to launch my investigation.
