Chocolate.

Proper chocolate, not the shit that Cadbury turn out since it was bought by the cheese people.

No wonder they lost their royal warrant. That’s the first thing that Charlie has done since the Prince’s Trust that has really impressed me.

While I am trying to use the internet less since the past 2 years or so, I will freak out if it ceases to exist completely.

I wouldn’t even call it a luxury. Hasn’t been for years.

You bring up an interesting point.

Most people wouldn’t consider a cup of tea to be luxurious at all. But if tea was scarce and you only got one cup a year, it would seem absolutely amazing, a special occasion and you’d really savour the experience.

There’s definitely something to be said for luxury which is much more about rarity or restriction rather than the experience itself.

I miss when it was a luxury. Pretty fun times if you ask me.

High-quality food. For me, food is one of the main sources of enjoyment, and if instead I’ll have to shove something down my throat just to satisfy hunger, I’ll get very depressed very quickly.

Coffee. Can’t even stop drinking it when I’m sick bc I feel like ten times worse.

I gave up caffeine a few years ago and I was really surprised by how easy it was and how little I missed it.

Maybe it’s different for me but caffeine ended up being much more of a habit rather than something I thought I needed.
