I daren't buy those tubs of sweets yet either. But really it's not our fault. We are not greedy or weak willed as, according to last week's paper, they have discovered it's a mental disorder if we can't resist chocolates or biscuits. So we can't help it.
We had guests a couple of weeks ago who gave me a box of Belgian chocolates with 3 layers. I ate them all in 2 days! Anyway chocolate contains an anti-depressant
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
I don,t want to be depressed,so for the sake of my health and wellbeing,I suppose I must eat more of it..................purely medicinal you understand.
Gee thanks Gilly, sometimes people give us some & we try not to pig out - make our pleasures last . Milk choccy is fairly easy to resist, but plain; that's a challenge! H doesn't need to put on weight & I don't want to.
However, most weeks I have a Scottish Country Dancing "event" & we have tea in the interval, which includes cake, homebaking of all sorts, cake, traybakes, cake, etc, & as people have gone to a lot of trouble it would be rude to decline . H says he thinks that I only go for the cake.

I've just got home and had a cuppa and ---- a piece of cake
it will be tea time soon 
I buy stuff, chocs and especially any sort of salted nuts, they have to stay at Mum's and she won't give them back before Christmas even if I beg.
H & I have just finished eating our Easter eggs (had 1 each).
We (sometimes) have just a little bit each evening. It's hard to be good!!
That is amazing Jeannie were they giant eggs ?
Jeannie did you leave them with my mother in Yorkshire?
I would like to award Jeannie and her husband a gold award for outstanding self control in the face of temptation by chocolate.................
Gee thanks Gilly
