292. Chocolate On My Cheek

There's chocolate on my cheek today.
I didn't put it there.
I didn't wipe it from my hand
Or get it in my hair.
I didn't lick the pudding bowl
To get it on my face.
I didn't mock a baker
Or join a pie-eating race.
 didn't start a food fight 
With my neighbor from next door.
I didn't slip in cookie dough
That landed on the floor.
I didn't bake some brownies
And splatter my right cheek.
I didn't frost a cupcake 
With a bag that had a leak.
I didn't splash hot cocoa
Or chocolate milk on me.
I didn't miss the blender lid
And let the contents free.
So how did chocolate get on me?
How did I come to this?
My one year old ate cookies
Then gave me a big kiss.
