I have a new addiction and it's a bad one. You see, every year at Christmas, SantaSpousehole introduces the kids and I to a different British confection not widely available in the U.S. Little glimpses of his teen years growing up in England. This year's didn't do much for the kids, but Mommy is totally addicted. Thank God we should be out soon, because these things could kill me.
Cadbury Crunchie bars. They are basically sugar covered in chocolate. Not much more than that. Oh my God, they are SO good. Sweet and crunchy. The perfect treat for a diabetic, don't you think? Between these and the Lindor truffles from my Mom, I may end up in a coma yet.
Here's a meme I stole from Sandy. For each category, you list something that starts with the same letter as your first name.
1. Famous Singer: Madonna
2. Four Letter Word: Mofo

Yum, and I love Truffles, so I think you should share!
If I am not mistaken...you can still buy those Crunchie things in Canada :) Yummy! Or at Meijer in the International Foods section....lol
I'm obsessed with Cadbury. They have the crunch ones that are sort of like the rice krisp ones too. And the hot chocolate places in England? Phenomenal, true chocolate just melted and maybe with just a little bit of milk...I almost go into a diabetic coma just thinking about it, and I'm not even diabetic.
My mother's a Brit. When we went to visit I got used to having a Cadbury's "99" -- also called "Flake," I think; it's basically a little log of chocolate slivers -- stuck in a cone of vanilla soft-serve. Yum.
Cool, you did the meme! I like "mofo" :D.
The thing in our household as been the 8 different flavors of Hershey Kisses you could buy this xmas...could meaning, WE did, lol.
M is for MICHIGAN who beat my beloved Gators. And for MEYER the Gator's coach who I addressed in today's post!
Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Lindor Truffles! Yum! So when can we expect another tale of erotica?
Hope that you are having a good weekend, Bunny !
I like how Monday can basically cover any and all disasters...even if it isn't Monday!
Yum yum - chocolate! Oh I'm excited to have just found you . . . sounds like we have a few things in common:) Love your blogroll, too. . .
those little dessert bites look yummy. i'm a sucker for anything sweet.
That candy sounds wonderful! I might wander into Canada to see if I can find it there.
Also, I tagged you. You don't have to play if ya don't want to.
cadbury crunch are a STANDARD canadian chocolate bar and one of my favs to boot.
Crispie Crunch (a peanut butter bar) is yummy too !!!
Any store in Canada WILL have both - supermarkets will have multi-bar packs in the candy aisle ...
Oh yeah!
I love those!
I love sweets! The dentist makes fat coin with me.
Hey, these are all M-words; 'Bunny' doesn't start with 'M'. . . ;)
Oh, I could go very naughty here with C-words, couldn't I? A while back, I made an indirect allusion to Molly of 'the C-word that lots of folks think is even nastier than the F-word'. And my dear wife, God bless her, looked at me puzzledly, and said "'Crap'? What's so nasty about 'Crap'?"
crunchies are the BEST!! when you run out let me know and i'll send you some for sure.
