40. Cadbury English Toffee 4 months ago

Manufactured by Hershey’s in the US which makes it highly suspect and begs the question, would it just be plain toffee in England?

Not bad for a small bite, but when they say soft, they mean liquid, like a caramel. Only this bar tastes much more sickeningly sweet than buttery caramel. And I have a sweet tooth…



Make a list of things I've asked my husband to do, and then do them. (read all 11 entries…)
#1 Done!!! 4 months ago

This is really the main reason I started this list. And it’s another thing that I probably would have had to hire someone to do. My husband is so funny, because he didn’t want to tell me he did it. And by funny, I mean obstinate.

Now what is left:
3. Replace the register cover in the entry.
5. Mount the leaf canopy in the nursery. (we have another one we decided to put up)
11. Put the living room lights on a dimmer switch
13. Put in a mailbox
15. Tile kitchen backsplash
17. Paint potter’s wheel

Not too shabby.

39. Crév Truffle Bar Chocolate Fix 4 months ago

Ok, I could not find much about this bar online. It pretty much just tastes like a very good (not so processed) 3 Musketeer Bar.

No complaints here.
