Eating chocolate makes you feel better when you're sad. Her aunt had told her that about two weeks ago, and Jezzabelle scoffed at the silly little half-truth. It had made her feel better for about as long as it took her to eat the chocolate bar.

No. What made her feel better was being surrounded by her plants. You could give them unconditional love and care and they would grow for you. Love you back in some odd way. That was what made her feel better when she was sad. Not a bar of chocolate but a pot of dirt.
