    I’ve eaten more chocolate - WHY did I buy so many - I didn’t need multi buys....I went round the supermarket like a mad woman with tinted grandma glasses on - kids have gone home - they’re only allowed a bit of chocolate to take with them - leaving me with the rest- I reminded me of someone on those tv programmes with the fellas from master chef..... completely lost the plot!
    January spends - £587.58

    You won't like me for saying this but I have been bought a Lindt Easter egg and a Lindt bunny with a bow and bell, no less, by bosses at work. They're in my wardrobe at the moment and I haven't been tempted - yet ... :)

    I have a Twirl Egg, Which to be honest I might give to my sister.

    I keep buying Match makers.

    And eating them.

    All.
