Candy!
It’s day 17 of
Blogmas and time for another festive post for you all. Enjoy!
I
mentioned in a previous post about how I receive lots of chocolate and sweets
at Christmas. Today I wanted to talk a bit about how I indulge my sweet tooth
at this time of year.
It
is fair to say I definitely prefer chocolate over sweets, despite the fact that
I love them both. Over the festive period, I receive large boxes of candy as
presents because, as explained in a previous post, I am a difficult person to
buy for. I absolutely love the fact that I have easy access to so much junk
food and candy at Christmas. Advent calendars, as well, help me to satisfy my
love of chocolate, albeit for a brief period every day. If you are like me and
are a lover of anything sweet, Christmas is an amazing time to just kick back
and eat as much rubbish as you like.
However,
I do have a bad story about over-indulging at Christmas. When I was 15, I
received a large box of chocolate biscuits (cookies for my international
readers) for Christmas. As someone who loves both chocolate and biscuits, it
was a great thing to get me. The day after Christmas day, I started to eat
them. And then I kept eating. Before I knew it, I had eaten three quarters of
the box. At this age, I had no idea of the limits of my own body, but I was
about to find out. I felt the effects that night and was very sick the next
day. Since then, I have tried to be more careful when over-eating at Christmas,
or in fact at any time.
I
suppose the message from this is to be careful, but still remember to treat
yourself. It is Christmas after all!

MUSIC CHART
Already
on this countdown, we have seen the first half of the war for Christmas number
one in 1973. This is well documented as the year when the battle to be top of
the chart at Christmas in the UK began, and has been hotly contested ever
since. So, in a way, both this and Wizzard’s I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day were pioneers in this
respect. In the end, this band won out and got the coveted number one spot that
year. Sure to have you screaming “IT’S CHRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISTMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSS!”
by the end of it, here is the brilliant Merry
Christmas Everyone from Slade, which just misses out on the top 5, landing
at number 6. Enjoy!
