Their delicate pink and white flowers are small, only about a 1/2 to 3/4 inch across, and are of rather complex design. Their major pollinators are tiny Midges (Genus Forcipomyia, as well as Dasyheolea and Stylobezzia) , Aphids, Thrips, Ants, and Flies! These pollinators are not drawn by ... more

I didn't think I had a chocolate addiction until I rediscovered Cadbury's Crunchies. This happened a week or so ago when I bought one on a whim. To truly enjoy a Crunchie, you need to have a cup of tea at hand. Dip the Crunchie in the tea and lick the chocolate off the honeycomb inside. The remainder of the chocolate melts into the honeycomb in the middle and makes a gorgeous concoction of chocolatey honeycomby goodness. Since discovering this joy, I have bought a multipack of Crunchies. I realised today that I have eaten at least one Crunchie a day with a cup of tea. Before this I rarely drank tea and hadn't had a Crunchie for months! I really hope that this addiction ...  Read the complete review

My chocolate addiction has got so bad that I have jsut invested in a chocolate fountain! I thought it would be great until I realised that it needs approx 750g of chocolate ideally belgium luxury chocolate at a cost of £9 per bag. I loved chocolate from the day I was allowed it! My favourite for a long time was smarties and then I bought a box of 48 packs and took 1 pack religiously every day to work and then by pack 47 I was fed up of them. that was 5 years ago. I bought a pack the other day for my son and had a few - I am hooked on them again. I love putting a mini mars bar in the microwave for 20 secs and then eating it when it's all melted ...  Read the complete review

I have been addicted to chocolate all my life.... well since I was 12 months old! My mum and dad denied me chocolate until I was 12 months old in a hope that I would not develop a sweet tooth.... it did not work! As a child I enjoyed a small piece of chocolate at least on a daily basis, if not more. As a teenager and a college student I would buy my chocolate out of the vending machine at school/ college or the local shop. By the time I was 15 I would eat a chocolate bar, such as a mars bar, in a morning and one in an afternoon! When I got pregnant at 28 and was "eating for two" I would eat as much chocolate that I could get ...  Read the complete review
