Putting The Eating Into Beating Sadness

(My sister’s boyfriend recently joined the army and she hasn’t seen him in several weeks. I happen to find some marshmallow candies on top of the fridge and ask her about them.)

Me: “Hey, [Sister], are these yours?”

Sister: “Yeah. [Boyfriend] gave them to me before he left but I haven’t eaten them because they make me sad. I miss him.”

Me: “Can I eat your sadness?”
