  1. Thank goodness you use your powers for good, not evil (as far as I can tell).
    With a brain as fertile as yours, I shudder to think of the worlds you could conquer.

  8. Happy Birthday a bit late! And how delightful to see you still inhabit Blogland. Glancing down my reading list a few moments ago, it seems as though there has been a huge exodus over the past few years...Now, there's a good question for you to ponder. Where do old bloggers go?!
    Thinks...are they ground up to provide the nutty bits in your chocs? ♥

    1. Hi Jinksy! Yes, still here, eight or so years later, turning out blog posts about once a week, maybe twice in school holidays. Every time I write one, I think I'll never have another idea again. And then.... But I guess that's the writer's permanent state, isn't it? Thanks for your comment, although I'll view nutty chocolates in a different light now ...
