Imagine that you’re trying to put together a puzzle. You snap two pieces together, but then there’s a knock at the door. You answer. It’s the Girl Scouts selling cookies. You buy half a dozen boxes of Caramel deLites because you can’t get enough of that divine chocolate-caramel-coconut combination, and then you go back to your puzzle.
