    I love strawberry creams. I also like coffee and orange creams......and rose and violet creams. I also discovered today how to make dairy free chocolate (which can be quite bitter) edible. I won't share as it's not exactly a calorie saving exercise. My best friend enjoyed the result of the experiment though which was dairy free Rocky Road.

    TBH I'm available to polish off anything going, I never met any kind of chocolate I didn't like!

    I think I may have tried some and found it too sweet 🤔 I may have to try again just to be sure.

    I don't like spirits so we can trade that as well (at which point I remind myself of our enormously fat former stray cat who does 'I am starving.  oh, I don't like fish.  I may starve?')

    I really like parma violets.  Just not dogs, soft centre or dark chocolate, hot cake, (mostly other peoples) children, or alcoholic spirits.  Am I forgiven?  Love all cats, especially the nasty ones.

    I love all of those things!
    I'm clearly very undiscerning 🤣
    I also love mean cats. We used to have a farm cat - a huge ginger bully called Cedric. I don't know why, my Mum named him. All the animals (and humans) we're scared of him. He was the boss of the farm and the surrounding ones. No-one messed with Cedric!
