hello @Former-Member @Shaz51 @soul
love the fact that he bakes! i do very little baking.
you should see some of my efforts. last time i attempted to make a trifle. husband asked how i was getting on. I proudly pulled the dish out of the fridge only to display the jelly had been soaked up in the sponge. No jelly! husband thought hilarious. last attempt at trifle!
I had 1 chocolate last night - my treat

the test will be when husband buys more !!

@Former-Member - one chocolate is a bit ambiguous. Would that be one square, one bar or one block?

hello @soul
haha very clever
actually there isnt a whole block left! I ate so much the other night in one hit! I think that might have been day one of self care.
one lindt chocolate, those round ball things.
havent heard of any of your slip ups. does sound as though you have it all sorted already.
i love tzadziki dip with raw vegetables.

If you're going to have just one chocolate, quality is the way to go.
IMHO - one Lindt Ball beats a whole Cadbury block hands down.
Slip ups - I did have three pieces of Dominoes pizza the other night. It was a freebie from being an Optus customer.

In my defence @Former-Member, the pizza was a vego one on thin crust. Which is your favourite Lindt ball flavour?
