Could someone please do me a favour.......

I have no chocolates here (and only one small box gifted) but I can offer an electric toothbrush

Am I too late for the jelly babies?

I’m working my way through the remainder of a large box of Lindt truffles opened last weekend when the grandchildren were here.

Within an hour of eating one I need a dose of gaviscon. I think your jelly babies would be easier on my digestion Kitty. I’d be happy to pop round and swap them over. I’ll bring some gaviscon.

Nandad what a brilliant idea! I was ready to start being healthy but today I got a packet of liquorice pipes for my birthday!

A few days after Christmas we had a games night with 3 other couples and declared it a leftovers evening. Everyone bought whatever leftovers they had, including opened chocolate boxes. No one had to cook and nothing was wasted. Likely or do it again at Easter.

I have been giving all mine away to the postmen, couriers who deliver my parcels and online shopping drivers. But I must admit, I finish one box off before starting another rather than having lots of half eaten boxes opened.

Whilst you’re picking up from Kittylester can you please pop in and collect any or all of the 11 unopened boxes of chocolates we have acquired? I don’t like chocolate except Green & Blacks but have ended up with these and I know I will start opening and eating them. We are going to a quiz night in February and if none of you collect then I will donate them to the raffle.

Luckily have two little boys next door, they gratefully devoured any left over sweets and biscuits on the 27th December that I sent in for them.

We didn't buy any but were gifted some candy canes and lollies. If the GC don't polish them off they'll be useful at Halloween 🎃

I usually finish off my Christmas treats just in time for Valentines day!

I know what you mean.
Last year I was eating a certain sort of crisps that come in a tube, till the end of jan. I reckon I put on 3lbs.
This year I did not want to do that. So didnt buy too much, plus because we happened not to be given much things to eat this year, I was all finished on Christmas stuff by 1st week in Jan.

Haven't done it for a while , but I have baked chocolate cakes and decorated them with our leftover chocolates and given them away .

I can throw in. Lily O, Briens chocolates, 2 boxes, Dairy Box 2 boxes, 4 boxes assorted shortbread, Lindy assorted packets. OH works in Sainsbury's and they're down to silly prices. I keep saying stop bringing them home, to be told they're for him. So tempting when they're sitting in full view every time I open cupboard!.

I ate the last champagne truffle today. Four After Eights and half a tin of shortbread to go. I can help with those jelly babies though. Waste not etc.

Hotel Chocolat Gingerbread for me please! Thanks ever so.

You could have left me just one, argymargy 😯

I'll help you!

Gingerbread chocolates? Yes please.
You can give the Jelly Babies to someone else.

We do have shortbread, assorted chocolate biscuits (a gift) left over plus some Hallowe'en Haribos to get rid of 🙂

We had nearly worked our way through and would have given a hand and then there was birthday last week and lots of goodies arrived again.

Has DH fallen down on the job?

I can help but have half a tin of shortbread to finish first.

I was pleased when we finally finished off all the Christmas goodies including a second stash that had been out of sight. Guess what, three times when DH has been taken to the shops he’s managed to find “the last box” of cherry liqueurs.
Obviously a husband to cherish but not at all good for getting back to healthier eating.
Hopefully they will be sold out soon.

The Elizabeth Shaw mints would be most welcome here.

We're lucky , my daughters a teacher . Anything leftover goes into the staff room. Doesn't last long in there 😂

I’m happy to help with anything but fruity soft centres. Just finding my bus pass then I’ll be along.

I’ve somehow managed to put on more weight after Christmas than over the festive period!

Such hard work finishing off all the chocs and cake so I can start my diet…😂

Be with you shortly Kitty 😋 (not a regular choccy chomper but when I want some, I want lots…)
