Roll on Easter...
Roll on Easter... I gave up chocolate for Lent, which is a bit bizarre really, as I’m not religious at all, but it seemed a good idea at the time. It wasn’t until I realised just how many things in my life have chocolate in them, that it hit me that I’d shot myself in the foot! The big obvious is chocolate bars. They come in all shapes and sizes, and varying degrees of cocoa content. My personal favourites are Godiva chocolates, but only if I’ve bought them in Belgium. Somehow it just adds to the flavour, being able to pick them off the shelf at the chocolatier’s in Brussels’s Grand Place, and sharing them, one by one. Every Christmas means Lindt and their sensational little red foil balls filled with a delicious centre ‒ Lindor for those of you who don’t know what I’m talking about. Mmmmmm, I can just taste that chocolate now!!! Thornton’s also make a sinful range of chocolates, and I’ve been lucky enough to nibble on handmade chocolates from Montezuma…sheer decadence! Besides the obvious, there are all the other things that contain chocolate… hot chocolate with mini marshmallows, chocolate ice-cream (yes, I’m missing Ben & Jerry’s Phish Food), chocolate mousse, chocolate cake, choc-chip cookies, chocolate spread on crusty bread… *sigh* …the list is endless, as I am finding out! Some would say that this would have been an ideal time to go healthy, and lose some of those pounds that have managed to attach themselves to my hips and thighs once again. No can do… instead I’ve suddenly developed an unhealthy interest in chewy fruit sweets, wine gums and fruit pastilles and those pounds are still crowding for space on my butt! Still, at least I can console myself that we’re now at the halfway stage, although you’ve never known a woman approaching her 40s who’s gagging to see an Easter Bunny as much as I am!! |
