We bought about six boxes of Matchmakers at Christmas, right, thinking we would give them away to people we visited. Shame we never got invited anywhere. (I guess answering phone calls, emails and texts would have helped.) Anyway, in the end, we had to eat them all ourselves. For the unitiated, Matchmakers are chocolate sticks which look like this .... ... and it's a very clever marketing ploy, to have chocolate in such a thin form. In fact, the advertising even claims that Matchmakers are a healthy diet food .... You too can lose so much weight eating chocolate that you make no indentation on the sofa It's all a Big Lie, of course, because no one, no one, says, after one Matchmaker, 'Hey, guys, I'm STUFFED. Let's put these away and have more tomorrow.' Still, you can nibble away at a Matchmaker while watching Downton Abbey and pretend you are being elegant like them. It makes a change from usual practice ... ... which leads to you...
You're right. I'm hungry, and George is adorable.

A great post. My tummy is rumbling.

ReplyDeleteIt's very impressive too. Personally, if I never had to cook again this would suit me fine, but possibly she hasn't been married for 40 years yet.
ReplyDeleteHi Isabelle - nope I've not been married for 40 years yet...!
