A few of my favorite things

So, I've been alerted that there is a care package winging its way to me from the states (thanks, Mom). It made me think on my ride home about why I've been cranky lately, and what I've been missing. Really, I have most of my favorite things:

• coffee;
• chocolate; and
  
• cheese.

The only ones I'm missing, really (because there's not much I can do about "California," is there?) are

• cats (and I was visited by a neighborhood cat this weekend, so I sort of have that one);
• crime novels (do I feel clever about this one?! You bet!), and
• chick lit (c'mon, Ms. Crusie, finish that next book!).
  

Is it signifigant that all of my favorite things begin with the letter "c"?
