    Sorry I don't know embb but in future you can defrost them quicker by putting them in a sink with COLD water. Each time the water goes REALLY cold you replace it with just cold water. It really works.

    Pinkfairy - that poem is lovely, thankyou.

    Pigpen - she's brilliant!

    DH back from the carol concert in the village. The local bakery bought out a load of donuts, muffins etc for everyone. How lovely is that!! xx

    Ooooh Santa is in the place DiL and her parents come from - merry christmas over there! (Though maybe that's not PC as it's a mainly Muslim country!)

    ETA - DiL and her parents are christians - converted when they came here

    First question has to be 'What's a Mingle?' :confused:

    (can you tell I don't do sweets!)

    Have lots! Although I don't know what a Mingle is either :rotfl: I'm raiding the salted peanuts at the moment :)

    They are - to quote the box -

    'Five varieties of chocolates, all with a hint of mint'

    I have:
    - dark chocolate mint crisp
    - solid milk and white chocolate with a hint of mint
    - dark chocolate with a mint fondant centre
    - milk chocolate mint crisp
    - milk chocolate with dark mint truffle centre

    It is one of the few boxes of chocolates where I actually like all of them!
