Where did all the chocolate go?
I had so much last week
But now I cannot find it
No matter where I seek?

It seems strange that it is gone
There was a plentiful supply
But it’s nowhere to be seen
And I really don’t know why

Ok I did eat some of it
Back on Easter Sunday
And I consumed a little more
During Bank Holiday Monday

And yes I might have had some
On Tuesday after lunch
And a delightful bit of Easter Egg
On Wednesday I did munch

But on Thursday there was plenty left
I know because I had some
And though I tried hard to abstain
On Friday I did succumb

But I hadn’t finished all of it
As Saturday was dawning
So I might have had a smidgen
To see me through the morning

But now it seems to have all gone
What has become of it?
And here’s another mystery
My trousers don’t now fit!

    1. It’s ok, I used poetic license for this. There’s loads of chocolate left

    I have the opposite problem…I still have over half of my *one* chocolate bunny left from last Sunday….

    1. I’m not sure that even counts as a problem though…

        HAHA it does when you don’t really eat a lot of sweets and there are ingredients in it that makes it impossible to share with the kids I nanny due to allergies. It’s been cut up and is in the fridge. Maybe being able to just grab a small piece here and there will help with getting it eaten up?

      2. It’s the ‘not really eating a lot of sweets’ thing I don’t understand. It’s a shame we’re in different countries, I think I could help you out…

  2. No worries. There are 7 Sundays of Easter so you have to eat chocolate until 13th May. You might have to go out and buy more!

    1. I already have. And the irony is I haven’t really even run out of the first lot of chocolate. I’d better make sure there’s enough to last until June to be on the safe side…
