I don’t like the Easter bunny any more!

So Easter has been and gone again for another year… but it has left it’s mark… again!

It does not matter how good I plan to be, somehow or other the Easter bunny comes along and tempts me and whamo, I go up 3 pounds!

It also did not help that my daughter decided to do all the cooking on Sunday, including giving us rather scrumptious cocktails of champagne and mango nectar! I can thoroughly recommend them but, as usual, when I drink alcohol, it stimulates my appetite and I eat way more than I really need to!

Add to this the fact that my daughter excelled herself with these wonderful tartlets as an entree and followed this with some beautiful marinated chicken, two lovely salads and some polenta something or other… I forget all the wonderful names but man, it was sooooo nice!

Then of course home made hot cross buns and even more chocolate! Sigh!

It doesn’t help that we shared a family box of Cadbury Favorites on Friday night or that we managed to consume a large block of chocolate and variety bag of eggs on Saturday night either!

Sigh! Why does putting on weight, taste so good? :-/
