  • Don't you dare step away from the chocolate. :mad:

    You are my chocolate munching buddy and I rely on you to get me through the tough chocolate munching times when you really don't want to but just keep soldiering on :)



    So wish I could munch chocolate, but I only have to look at chocolate and I gain a stone :eek:

    However I did have a glass of wine last night (medicinal purposes only you understand;) )

  • She's also someone who can seriously cook, and understands freezer/cupboard suprise....so we're going to do some serious planning time with the fridge, freezer and cupboards....shhhhhh, don't tell the risotto rice...having been in the cupboard for a while, it thinks it's safe....:shhh:

    She could start her own business showing the rest of us how its done !!:)

    All of this will get going right after my hangover head subsides a little...much fun was had by both catching up yesterday evening....

    .....so much fun, in fact, that I came downstairs this morning to discover that we apparently decided to aid my MSE-ness by cutting up credit card 1 and my Next account card!! :rotfl:

    I also seem to recall her demanding custody of CC2 so I couldn't use it while my emotions are all over the place during the move....

    [COLOR="rgb(65, 105, 225)"][COLOR="rgb(65, 105, 225)"]Well done you, wish some one had taken mine away from me before I managed to rack up the debts:o[/COLOR]

    Chatting last night, it turns out she's an avid MSE fan, and a forum lurker for advice on various things. It's funny, because I know I've recommended this site to all my friends etc., but I didn't know anyone who actually used it like I do.

    Breathe!! FOUR packs of galaxy counters in the fridge.....which might last me until Monday....if I'm good....

    But sometimes, I think it might be a sensible idea to slip in another snack between chocolate bars....just to ration out the expensive stuff and give my waistline a chance...maybe, sort of, ummm..... *starts to wobble on idea of healthier snacks*

    Just a stone? Rookie.

    I swear, these kids today have no staying power...no commitment....no chocolate! ;)

    It's good that you have a friend that you can rely on, and who will help you through this.

    A friend indeed!

    Well he's a lucky husband, you're a lucky friend.

    Of course, you're now going to say she lurks on *this* forum... :eek::o:rotfl:

  • i absolutely love salted popcorn and it is a good quite healthy snack :) i put too much salt on mine for it to be classed as healthy though. dont worry about giving up chocolate though- last night i ate 3 dime bars and a big bowl of popcorn! :EasterBun
    in fact you could combine them, my friend made a lovely snack of melted choc and toffee popcorn, spread in a tray to set and then break up. nom nom nom

    when you headed your post up about your cards i thought 'oh no she's used her cards' so i have to appologise for doubting you like that, congratulations on cutting up the cards
