Chocolate Glorious Chocolate

I try not to eat too much yummy, delicious, better than sex Chocolate…what with the whole trying to lose weight and generally live a healthier life thing — but for me there are three kinds of ‘allowed’ chocolate that you just can’t say no to!

1. Christmas Chocolate — the Christmas log, the after eights, the quality streets. Yum.
2. Birthday Chocolate — a coffee cake on one of my family members birthdays is tradition and I always have a little bit at least.
3. Chocolate Gifts — because if you didn’t buy it your self it doesn’t count

One of my sister in laws works for a well known chocolate gift makers here in the UK, so she is always bringing home the most delicious and delightful gourmet gifts.

Did I mention she’s my favourite sister in law?

I must resist you oh chocolate temptress

Have I mentioned before that I love nothing more than getting post? Yeah, I am sure I have. I am sure I have also mentioned I love getting free things, free is my favourite kind of thing.

So I can’t resist applying for freebies when I come across them, who cares if I don’t want it, who cares if I don’t need it — it’s free and it’s getting posted to me.

Today I got a free sample of chocolate in the post, it’s a full bag of strawberry, chocolately goodness. I want to scoff it all down so bad. Strawberry quality streets are my all time favourites — but I am trying so hard to be good as gold on my diet this week. I didn’t work my arse off for 70 minutes on the elliptical earlier just to eat the calories back in one sitting.

I must resist them. I will resist them.

The good news is I only have to resist them tonight, for tomorrow my brother and sister in law are coming over for a Sunday roast. They’ll be gone in seconds as soon as I offer them out. The fat bastards

Eww, is there something on your face?…oh…

Thankfully at 28 my days of being a spotty teen are long behind me, that’s not to say I don’t still get them occasionally — but I can deal with them. Even as I teen I never had that bad acne, just regular run of the mil issues, I feel bad for my sister in law though who gets it really bad, she’s tried 100s of acne treatments over the years that I have known her but nothing seems to help — and she’s 22 now, she should also be passed that stage. Poor love.
