OH SUGAR!!!!!

it not is

I feel sick and I've still got the duvets to sort out.

Not quite cancelled out jingl, exercise before eating continues to have a beneficial effect throughout the day. Let it go and move on - to the duvet sorting!

OK Granny-a.

Once more unto the breach. [brave]

Granny-a. I think you are a universal Granny. ♥

Oh .Jingl I sympathise, I have just thrown chocolate down the kitchen waste disposal unit it's the only way I could stop myself from eating it, I could easily find it if I had chucked it in the bin How's the duvet sorting?

It's coming on thank you Golden. The poppers are meeting up with the poppers and the velcro with the velcro.

I just hope the weather doesn't go mild again.

Muddy out there ain't it. Why do duvets insist on fighting back? It is only 12th night. The season endeth tomorrow. On no account go to Sainsburys and stock up on cheap tins of Q. Street. Chocolate withdrawal symptoms only last a day or two, honest !!!

I've disposed of the cheaper chocolate but what do I do with the the posh ones? My family say they prefer Celebrations and Quality Street and always make sure I get Hotel Chocolat, which I have still not opened. I can manage one a day when not dealing with any emotional turmoil............

Oh, scoff the lot quickly!!!!

What else?

How come you've still got 'em, anyway?

Enjoy them without guilt Carol. When they're done, they're done. You weren't given them so that you could sit and admire the box!

Oh yes get on with it Carol, unless you'd like me to call round and help. I could manage half a box of them any evening... Darn, I don't think you're close enough.

Phew! Have just finished the last of the richest, most delicious chocolate biscuits in the world! My DD3 has given me some dark Marc de Champagne Truffles which are so rich that I can only manage one a week, (there are only 8 in the box thank goodness!). Every so often I feebly say that I don't want any more chocs, but no-one seems to take any notice. Luckily they do all know that I only like dark chocolate which of course is MUCH better for you. Just getting over a cold and as soon as I am fully fit I'm off to Hampstead Heath to walk off some of the Xmas goodies!

Chocolate is good for colds.

When I have a cold I get a strong desire to drink cocoa.

I can't read this thread any more It is making me want chocolate, and although I said I had thrown it away, I think I might have missed a little Hotel Chocolat reindeer.......

..'the great British art of 'duvet wrestling'....

Cold getting better - just a little more chocolate needed!
