🧁 The Muffin Tax – Paying the Price of Sweet Survival 💸

 Airports have rules, borders have stamps, but my life has something far stranger: the muffin tax. ✈️🧁 It’s that unwritten law that when chaos strikes, muffins appear — but not for free. There’s always a cost, whether in patience, sanity, or just sticky fingers. 😅

I first noticed the muffin tax during travel days. Luggage lost? Flight delayed? Energy drained? Somehow a muffin shows up, demanding to be the peace offering. 🧁✨ It never fixes the problem, but it distracts the soul long enough to breathe. A cosmic toll booth in pastry form. 🌌💨

As a Reflector, I see the humor in these tiny survival strategies. 🌙 Sometimes we don’t need enlightenment — just carbs and sugar. But the muffin tax also reminds me of boundaries: the price of sweetness is remembering not to give away my energy for free. 🛡️💜

Maybe the muffin tax is just another way the universe whispers: you’ll get through this, but it might cost you crumbs. 🍪

So next time you find yourself paying the muffin tax, laugh with it. 😂 Because sometimes healing comes with sprinkles — and a side of absurdity.
