Does Chocolate Orange...

[Aefibird]

count as a fruit and veg portion for the day?? ;D

I went to Tesco after training tonight and the Chocolate Oranges were sitting there calling to me. Plus, they were on special offer so it was rude not to buy them!

I got 4 for £5 and bought them intending to give them all away as Xmas prezzies...my resolve lasted until I'd been in the house about 10 mins and then broke into one. I didn't eat it all I might hasten to add, before you think I'm a total pig...

Somehow I can't see the other 3 getting given as presents either.

Anyone else ever done that? Bought something intending giving it to someone as a present and then ate it/used it yourself? Or is it just me that can't keep away from Chocolate Oranges?

Funnily enough I keep buying single malt for people…and they end up with a chocolate orange.

Whenever I buy single malt, it is never for other people!!

I love those oranges.......I believe they make chocolate rasbarries as well.

I also love chocolate orange and luckily for me I'm the only one in my house that likes `em

I once bought a computer game for my brother as a Christmas present.... only that I owned the computer and it was a game I wanted to play.

I think I bought a sweatshirt once for my sis, local pro American football team, I ended up buying her something else because I put it on at the game I was at and never took it off. ;D

Hmm, there's a theme going on here...

Seems that a lot of blokes buy people presents that they themselves really want!

Homer Simpson and the bowling ball springs to mind.
