I’ve normally cleared at least one Yule log by now but forgot to buy one... must rectify this urgently

We have to hide all that sort of stuff in PIL garage and pick it up on the 22nd.

I'm a massive over eater and I would just eat it all (it's a huge problem for me).

I’ve eaten pringles and a white chocolate orange 😋

I definitely can’t afford the calories!! Back on my diet now until Christmas Eve fingers crossed!

It's essential that you do Christmas goodies in rounds. The first round is purely quality control.

I have a tin of quality streets and celebrations, not too many have been eaten cos dh bought me a massive birthday cake. It's an amazing Ravenclaw cake which he had specially made but it's taking us a while to get through it, even with giving some away!
I've made two batches of mince pies and we've bought a couple of boxes, plus MIL brought us some of her home made ones at the weekend!

If I were slim I'd get the chocolates out now but I'm obese so am making myself wait til xmas eve. I used to start beginning of December

Laughing at the idea that it's the slim people who open the big tins of chocolates weeks before Christmas and then buy more. Grin If that were the way they operated, they wouldn't be the slim ones!

The trick is not to waste calories on actual food with nutritious value.

MrsKingfisher · 08/12/2020 19:18

LMAO. Love that.

I bought two for one Roses tins at Halloween, thinking one for the trick or treaters and one would do for Christmas.

Obviously I’d polished off the Christmas one by November 1st. On my own. Hiding in the pantry.

There's a programme on Channel 5 8pm tomorrow called "Rose's Vs Quality Street: Chocolate box wars"
