Winter-y hot chocolate nights are coming

Tried Nestle's Aero hot chocolate today from a package. I liked it and it doesn't taste like the crappy hot chocolate you get from a machine. Made with water it gave me the 4pm chocolate hit I needed today. I always remember burning my tongue as a child when we would have tiny white Styrofoam cups of it after skating sessions. I never did think it warmed me up, the only thing that did was getting into the car and getting home! Today is a nippy day in Londontown, frost on some cars this morning - old man winter is coming!

Nutella heavenWe didn't have creeps with Nutella, I think they meant crepes (select signage in Sicily is hilarious), but we did have Nutella every morning for breakfast! How heavenly is that?

Chocolate hazelnut spread on fresh bread or crispy toast was the perfect start to our mornings. It was usually followed by a fresh cappuccino and a hunk of fresh watermelon that was most certainly the best watermelon I have ever had.

This hearty brekafast was needed as we had busy days ahead of us starting with the 5minute trek to the beach, the task of finding the perfect sun lounger (front row only!) and then going through a routine of swimming, sunsceen, gelato and then naps. This was what the morning Nutella was fueling. I do love Nutella and summer holidays!

Back in Londontown to grey, dreary weather and I saw people wearing coats this morning - how depressing? I will have Nutella for breakfast tomorrow and hope that I see some sun.

Wanna date?I have to do my research but these babies were absolutely moist and delicious, unlike the dry and hard ones here, I think they also have magic powers to keep your bowels moving like clockwork (too much info?) and they are most filling.

I have been having a few for breakfast each morning since the return to Londontown and it is such a nice treat - I should've bought more. Mrs. Chandler at work has been single-handedly scoffing the whole tray that I brought for the team, which is ok as she needs to power up for her imminent backpacking adventures. Her assistance in eating them also saves me from any future shock when I read somewhere how bad or fattening these are for you.

Well, while on the topic of dates, if anyone wants a real female date I know a few single ladies - enquire within - they are passionate about food so at least you have one thing in common!
