to think this is the best persuasive argument to eat chocolate ever?

[GretaGip]

DS just came and asked if he ciuld have a MatchMmmaker because he was worried that the open packet was making the cupboard smell of mint.

He's a very creative 5.

That's brilliant. With that argument, why wouldn't you eat a MatchMaker?

Genius!

Perfect reason - well done LittleGip

I like that one!

My best (IMO) was I had to have some to hide the smaeel of the wine on my breath which I had drunk to hide the smell of Chips!!

Didn't work

Excellent Smellslike.

I like your train of thought.

He's got another method too, but I'm wise to it.

I give him something sweets/crisps or so on. He eats 90% of it, declares he's not keen and therefore he ought to have something else instead.

Oh ho no.

Oh, Im Greta, too.

Oh, DS does that too.

Re biscuits

'But if we leave them open they go all soft like cake, and I know I don't like cake, but I know you do. But they are my biscuits. Daddy's not allowed any and you don't want to get fat by eating them all before the go soft. So it's best I have them now...Yes?'

Me:

Match makers? We only get those in at Christmas go this household. However should I be concerned about my Wispa going stale, it's been in the cupboard for well over 24hours now

It's been in there 24 hours....ugh. Don't eat that now....way past it's best.

Wispa's usual shelf life is between shop and home...?

Mmm matchmakers! Haven't had those in a long time.

I think you absolutely ought to do something about that wispa, brillopads. It's bound to go off. Or attract vermin. Better get rid quick, you'll be doing your household a favour.
