M

addy Zingle and
Samantha Sher have
been best friends since
the sixth grade when
they bonded over a
science project
involving something
dear to both of their
hearts — chocolate.
The West Bloomfield
High School seniors ANNIE ADELSON
COLUMNIST
have stayed true to
their passion for sweets and love to
spend their free time in the kitchen
baking. Through bat mitzvahs,
boyfriends, books and spring break
in the Bahamas, Maddy and Sam
have remained close companions
during years when friendships often
come and go with typical adolescent
capriciousness.
