chocolate diet

Hi everyone,

………finally all the Easter eggs are finished LOL!! Been eating nothing but chocolate for the whole week now and my tummy’s proof of that too hahaha. For me my tummy rolls are starting to show and hubby’s at least got something to hang on to!! Caden had a wonderful time hunting for her eggs with daddy leading the way but she still prefers her “marie biscuits” to the delicious choc marshmallows – uhuh that’s why mommy had to finish them!!! Not sure if i’m supposed to be lucky or if her choc binge is going to follow later on LOL!

Its been so hectic for us here – easter is one of our busiest seasons. Our cottages were full this week and we only had one cottage complain after being woken up at 2am in the morning by some other cottage guests coming in late from our local pub’s party – in their happy drunken state they couldn’t find the gate remote so they had to hoot for someone to open up hahahha!!(Kim – you never told me Wayne and Deon were visiting LOL!!!)

While apologizing on behalf of guests and running around with extra toilet paper and soaps LOL we managed to go to the Tonteldoos Country Festival – little farming community just outside Dullstroom. Here’s me and lil one on the “Donkey Taxi” – hahahah, Yikes (here’s me thinking okay I can do this little stroll around the field!!!) I had to hang on for dear life as the driver thought he was on a race track…………..poor donkey’s and my bhind……….! All Caden wanted was the drivers whip………she thinks she can chase mommy around!!

Donkey Taxi

I’v also managed to finish KimB’s April Colour Challenge – oooh very late……………..
