You know it's a sad thing when all you miss from home is the snacks - luckily I have found an uber efficient online company who can ship my cravings within the week - step forward Brit Superstore.com
Clearly they are about to be my NBF on the emergency shipping front.
It's not just the fickle 'craving' thing that's going on here - some of these items are actual comfort foods that have a special place in my heart.
- Cadbury Creme Egg = one of my oldest chums presented me with a boxful for my 21st birthday - tried to get through the whole lot in one sitting (I think there was Cider involved too), ended up throwing up for days and never touching the damn things for another 10 years, but they do remind me of those heady days of youth.
- Frazzles = first weekend away with hubs in North Wales (Bedd Gelert, Prince of Wales pub), romance involved him crossing a river on stepping stones followed by quaffing a number of G and T's accompanied by Frazzles as the main course - bliss.
- Pickled Onion Monster Munch = weird craving when pregnant with first born - spookily now number 1 son has same desire to devour numerous packets of those quirky little snacks as I do - needless to say battle lines have been drawn between us re ownership of current batch of snacks.
- Bournville chocolate = still working on that one, think I'm trying to convince myself that as a 'dark' chocolate, this is the acceptable face of sweet cravings.
Clearly am completely ignoring the fact that have to squeeze lardy crisp stuffed body into swimwear in less than 10 days...
