Cheers, Selchie. Bit late for me I'm afraid. Don't think I can hide the fact that I've given birth to 2 hulking sons. Got the stretch marks to prove it.
Back to chocolate topics, here's a few choccie facts to digest in between your Easter eggs.
Easter eggstravagance goes to waist

By the time Easter weekend is over, Kiwis will have devoured more than 40 million chocolate eggs - but be warned, all that chocolate could leave a sickly after-taste.
While Easter is traditionally a time of goodwill and celebration, for many parents, dealing with choc-filled hyperactive kids full to the brim with additives and vegetable fat can be a right handful.
But experts say it needn't be that way.
"All children should feel, quite rightly, that they can have one or two eggs this holiday, but it's important they don't go overboard," said Consulting Dieticians director Sarah Ley.
While some Easter eggs contain almost as much packaging as confectionery, others, such as the 1kg Pig Out egg, containing around 300g of fat, have dieticians crying foul.
"Any egg that weighs that much should not be given to a child," said Ley. "It's different if a whole family is sharing it over a period of time, but something like this doesn't fit into a moderate diet. This is not moderation."
