about christmas goodies

[worldgonemad72]

my dh was horrified at the thought of me opening the roses earlier but is now tucking in to the tub of twiglets (which i hate). aibu to tell him where stick his twiglets and open the roses???

YANBU - I myself have just opened the xmas roses despite dh being dead against it.

However, his principals do not extend to NOT having any of the roses, oh no, he's had plenty of them now they are open.

Double standards!!

No! Of course not! Open them now! My mum has the rule of not opening any Christmas stuff until November. So by my mum's rules, you are doing nothing wrong!

wineonafridaynight I'm loving your mums rule.

You buy Xmas goodies in november? How do you have anything left by Xmas?

haha! I like her rule too! Only we are bad and just buy Christmas goodies with the intention of eating them before Christmas . We don't spend Christmas at ours so why not!

ive normally got willpower but watched ernest saves christmas earlier and was feeling festive

Ummm, I bought 2 boxes of lovely choccie biscuits in M&S when they were BOGOF for DH cousins xmas pressies. They have mysteriously disappeared

I bought a tin of lebkuchen in TK Maxx today and they're all gone

In my defence, there were only 4 humungous ones in the tin and I only bought them because I needed a nice tin for a button box and they were £1, so they had to be eaten in order to put the buttons in...

Actually it's just struck me that I've been buying bits for the last month and we're not actually going to be here, we're going to a hotel in Liverpool, so that means we can eat them all now!

ive got some chestnuts in so roasting them at the mo instead, all i can think about is the roses tho lol

Had a jacket potato with tuna for tea (being good). Am now off to snuffle search for chocolate.

So YANBU.

Can I have some of your Roses please?

i only like the caramel keg and the caramel with a nut in so you can have any of the other flavours

Any goodies I buy this year are in my mums spare room i'm being good.
