{Giveaway} The Question is irrelevant ...Saturday by the numbers & Cadbury marvellous creations

... Chocolate is always the most reasonable answer .

These are not

 4  ~ number of cups of tea I've had while reconciling the teen's unauthorized use of my toll pass for 5 months -His personal ~ $87.06  and work related trips ~ $774.15!

Can you guess the number of trips to the bathroom ?

 7 ~ the number of times I tried to unzip a certain file before I Google'd how to do the right way

1 1/4 ~ pieces of burnt fruit toast I ate whilst doing it

602 ~ the number times I told my five years olds be shush up or close the 2 exterior doors ~ maybe less politely after 499 ...

39 ~  the no of things on my to do list this weekend

8 ~ the number of kms I am going to run later today.

 3 ~ Yes, I was sent 3 x family size Cadbury's new 'Marvellous Creations' range - Peanut Toffee Cookie , Jelly popping Candy beanies and Jelly Crunchy Bits



to be precise and a rather purple apron.

 
Marvellous Creations is the first Cadbury Dairy Milk product to be delivered from the magical and mythical land of Joyville !

Let's say I can't stop at one piece of the newest addition to my long list of favourite chocolate options.
One that combines quirky and unusual flavours to produce a unique taste sensation. My favourite is the deliciously new tongue-tingling Jelly Popping Candy beanies.

I may be watching my bottom waist-line, but if I'm honest, I really don't care some days .I'll sweat run it off eventually !

If you have too little in the way of willpower I warn you to steer clear ! The other family friendly


'joyville' option - if you want to limit yourself to just a couple of marvelously shaped pieces (be equally warned they aren't littlesquares and they aren't even sized pieces) -is to share with your chocoholic spouse , kids or even friends.


The kids love the ad ...


Onwards to the Tantalising I mean ...  GIVEAWAY

You've GOT TO get your lips hands on this !  and five of you can win three family size blocks
plus a rather Marvellously ' purple ' Marvellous ~ Creations apron of your own.

Tantrums, tears and froggy fears.
Chocolate makes the kiddies cheer.
Even better when kids in bed, mummy's turn to scoff instead.
Daddy doesn't get a nibble, serves him right for all that dribble!

My recent post Home is where mum heads
Sweet and creamy,
sometimes chunky too,
Indulging makes me dreamy,
When in winter I have the flu.
Don't want to share,
I hide it away,
My kids don't care,
If I don't bring it out in the day!
I shared a tweet,
Because it's so sweet!
shared by Facebook,
Just go and have look!!
I love Haiku!

Sweet chocolate dreams
Sweet reminders of childhood
Cadbury dreaming

My recent post Things I Know...
I love some chocolate everyday,
it helps keep bad feelings at bay!
A little for me and some for you,
will keep us happy all day through!
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Chocolate gives me joy
Cos it tastes so darn good!!

My recent post Working Out Of Hours
Chocolate tastes so rich, sweet, and smooth.
It helps me feel better & help my heartache sooth.
There are many things to make with chocolate , Have some, just for fun --
cappuccino, chocolate milk, mocha & cocoa -- try more than one!

Cadbury chocolate is so divine,
The only thing that keeps my cravings in line.
Should I share it, save it, smell it or lick it,
It's too late to think because my kids have found it.
Running around the house chasing the Cadbury packet,
"I've got it!" I shout while my kids make a racket.
They tackle me to the ground,
snatch at the chocolates without making a sound
fill their little gobbs full of yummy chocolate blocks.
You just wait and see, I'll make you go to bed at 7 o'clock.

Chocolate brings me joy,
When I hide it from my ‘boy’,
It’s sweet & rich & yummy,
Brings a smile to this Mummy.

Chocolate brings me joy,
Much better than any toy,
It’s selfish not to share,
But in chocolate Heaven I don’t care.

Chocolate brings me joy,
Just don’t dare make it soy,
I’d walk the streets in bare feet,
To fetch myself a little treat.

Did someone say Cadbury Chocolate, I'm in,
Such a yummy, sweet treat I'd love to win,
Sadly it never lasts long around here,
Gobbled down by the chocolate monsters I fear,
There's no place to hide it that they can't find,
But I'll always share it because I'm so kind :)
I'm not creative,
I cannot rhyme,
But I eat chocolate
All the time.

It doesn't cry,
Or yell or scream,
It gives me time
To sit and dream.
I am like old Mother Hubbard.
Except I have an empty chocolate cupboard.

Which is a problem when I need to bribe the small
To do any of their jobs at all.

Please send me some currency.
So they pick up their toys, not me!

My recent post My Favourite Things.
Chocolate Makes the world go round,
Where it is I can be found,
I enjoy it so much,
My toes I can not touch,
Delicious creations I want to try,
But too much of a cheapskate to go and buy
After travelling the globe
Do you know what I found?
Cadbury is the best by far
It makes the world go round!

They reckon Hershey's is kinda good
And Lindor is the bomb
But Cadbury beats them all hands down
The rest of them are wrong!

Elation will gnaw at my every pore,
When I try ~ Cadbury's Marvellous Creations~ ,
I wish to buy all three in one location,
I've met with huge frustration,
For the stores i've visited have not all three sensations,
So my temptation has met with immense anticipation,
Boy! It'll be such a Celebration when I meet all three!

Cadbury chocolate is so yummy,
Especially when it's in my tummy.
Then it moves from my lips to my hips,
So I'll need that purple apron to help me cover this!

Chocolate can drown out those deafening screams
It can turn your nightmares into the sweetest of dreams
If there's a darkened tunnel, its the light at the end
It cheers me up more than any best friend
It stops childish tantrums and band-aids can't compare
To fix any ailment, you just need chocolate to be there
Its reunited lovers, it gives low days a lift
Its the only hope you've got if you need an "I'm sorry" gift
Its your companion as you cry through the Notebook yet again
And it knows just how to please you (unlike many men!!!)
I've lost 10 kilos but I'm still craving
A bit of the chocolate of which you're raving.
I know its so sweet and such a great treat
But it'll be worth the scale I'm braving.
My recent post We Fail and We Succeed
Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate chocolate chocolate!
It will make you jump with joy, it will make you act so high.
chocolate, chocolate, chocolate chocolate chocolate,
Pay for the choclate with every last penny, and buy so many and many!

Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate chocolate chocolate!
It will make you scream, and sometimes will be covered in cream!
Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate chocolate chocolate,
when you take a nibble the side, it will take you on a fantastic ride!

I love it, I love it, I love it, I do,
I think I love chocolate even more than you,
I can imagine a chocolate house,
I'd nibble at it daily like a mouse,
I'd love to have a chocolate bath,
All smoothed in chocolate,what a laugh,
So yes really it is true,
I really love chocolate ,oh yes I do!
Cadbury Chocolate is Yum Yum Yum yum
Cadbury Chocolate is for Mum Mum Mum Mum
Cadbury Chocolate grows my bum bum bum bum
Please Please Please send me some some some some!

No clever comments from me,
Happy I will be,
You, I will bless,
If you send to me, some yummy Cadbury Goodness!
Delicious melting sweetness in my mouth,
When hubby enters the room I hide it behind the couch,
Yes, Cadbury Chocolate is meant to be shared,
But just this once sharing the joy of the Marvellous Creations is just to much to bear!
My recent post New adventures for the Disney Junior gang and you can win them all!
I love chocolate, can't you tell!
The bedside draw it is hidden in, this fattening sin.
I hide away, without a peep..licking my lips...
Rich and sweet, I do not share with the man this treat.
It is mine, for when I am off my feet.
I even see this chocolate in my sleep.
Counting chocolate, instead of sheep!
