You'll never guess what I just found

At the back of a cupboard in our spare room that DH uses for his hobby. Would anyone like to guess what it is?

I'm not quite sure what to do now.

Shergar?

Hilarious. I’ve got a high fever and it’s made me cackle.

Oh go on then...😁

It is my forgotten secret stash of Christmas goodies. A bag of chocolate coins and a box of Turkish delight.

Now. Here's my dilemma:

Which one of those two do I eat whilst watching the Traitors final this evening? One or the other, or both?

Huge bonus! Nice!

IncessantNameChanger · 23/01/2026 17:39

I see it was your Christmas stash. I was hoping it was either my passports. Or £2000 I drew out to pay a builder, put in a safe place and can't remember where that safe place was about a year ago.

EchoedSilence · 23/01/2026 17:39

Bit of a crap secret chocolate stash.

Thought it was going to be unexpected condoms and you were having some sort of manic MH crisis 😬

Nice one! Must feel like Christmas all over again! I vote both. 😄

All I can say is, thank fuck for the "see all" OP posts option so I don't have to scroll through five bloody pages! 🥱

Absolutely. Living with OP must be a laugh a minute if she strings every bleedin' thing out that long. (Not even 'high end' chocolates either. Grrr!! )😁😆😅'

I have to say whenever I find secret squirrelled chocolate or fancy ice cream, often months later, it is the most delicious feeling, similar to finding a tenner in a coat pocket.

FuckoffeeBeforeCoffee · 23/01/2026 18:15

Like, I’m glad your husband isn’t cheating on you or a giant pervert, but I’m a little disappointed.

Soupdragon41 · 23/01/2026 18:16

How on earth do you lose ice cream? Do you have one of those cavernous chest freezers that you could store a human corpse in? 🤷‍♀️

I do!

A large chest freezer in the garage. I know there’s a leg of lamb in there that’s been there a couple of years, I haven’t seen it for a while, but it’s not walked off on its own so it must still be there. I have found a tub of Phish Food on more than one occasion when I’ve been looking for something else. A meringue roulade from Christmas before last was a nice surprise too.

It is that huge and cold, I tend to give up looking before I get to the bottom, for fear of frostbite.

Your missing ironing board

thankfulnessisnotbizarre · 23/01/2026 18:27

Condoms, used female knickers which you never purchased or female clothes that you never bought

AgnesX · 23/01/2026 18:27

Oh, haven't had Turkish Delight in years

I demand a steward’s enquiry. Easter eggs are chocolate( and in my house no chocolate would be in a cupboard from October!) Joint first.

This is the correct way to do it.

Smoke a joint first, then chocolate takes care of the munchies.

I admire your style! 😁
