I opened my obvious b-day box of Thorntons early to clear it out (get hubby to help eat!) But still, ugh. Am going nowhere near a scale in foreseeable future!

I'm sure each nut had 2,000 calories. I ate HUNDREDS over Christmas. I shoveled them down by the handful. Gawd. Where was my willpower?!

It's like you read my mind, going back ten days.<br />I was thinking, 'Oh no, what will we do with all this chocolate?'<br />We had luxury chocolates from Rogers (est 1885) and Purdy's (est 1907), two local chocolatiers. Add to this Irish Whiskey chocolate brought back by a neighbour from the Wexford Opera Festival and many imported Belgian chocolates. Plus a few Cherry Ripe bars leftover from our great Australian adventure earlier this year.<br />No worries. The situation is resolving rather quickly. <br />On the positive side, if I get hit by a bus today, I can die without thinking 'I wish I'd eaten more chocolate.'<br />Thanks for a laugh. All the best on your health check!<br />Maggie Bolithohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02746336139745406326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513470670765405287.post-49059681772293194612016-01-03T12:46:46.150-08:002016-01-03T12:46:46.150-08:00Send your chocolates to me.
