There is a chocolate monster It’s lurking around my house Hiding here and hiding there He’s as quiet as a mouse The cake and cookies soon disappear They vanish as if by magic It is something I mustn’t fear My depleted cupboards look so tragic The Haribo sweets were sadly depleted When I opened the kitchen drawer Only ten left in the bag, oh I feel defeated! Oh this monster is beyond the law But I will miss my monster for soon he will leave Back off to university he will go And I will be sad and my shoulders will heave So I must simply go with the flow In a few weeks time my sweets will remain For my son will be oh so far away I’ll be wishing that he were back here again Candy will be here when he returns one day 09~27~15 My Monster Contest Sponsored By Anthony Slausen

My son cleans out my peanut M&M's every time he comes. He says he eat very healthy... But no one can resist a little chocolate... LOL

I'm sure you don't mind your 'monster' going away with your sweets and chocolate, Jan, as long as he leaves you bits and pieces to nibble:) I only buy 90% or 99% cacao black chocolate and nobody touches it....they don't like the taste!! Hugs // paul

Oh I've tried that strong chocolate Paul it is an acquired taste - if I remember correctly you only have a small piece at a time and have to let it melt on your tongue :-) hugs Jan xx
