Am I a bad mummy?
Well... went to Tesco Express this morning, for a few bits -milk etc. While there I spotted a real bargain - large tubes of sweets etc. buy 2 for £2.00.
Got home, felt a bit peckish and started on the smarties, almost without thinking. Well, she's got the white chocolate buttons to herself and I'm going to the gym 3 x a week so can afford a few smarties... what do you think???!!! Am I a mean mummy or does anyone else do that kind of thing? Can chocolate ever really be safe in the same house as a chocolate crazed sheila? :scared: |
Larissa,
I thought this was part of being a mother, testing the goodies to make sure they're safe, tasty, have no nasty effects etc. You are just protecting your children, I think its a very selfless act to force yourself to sample the goods! ;) ;) ;) Michaela |
Re: Am I a bad mummy?
reminds me of the jaffa cake ad, with the teacher eating all the jaffas whilst the children look on with dismay - thats I suppose was a bit cruel, were your children watching? :eek:
anyway I do believe that tescos is going to be open between now & xmas so you can always get some more:D Should try be brought up with parents owning a chocolate shop - mmmmmmmm |
You are not a bad mummy at all - you are looking after their teeth! :D

Gosh,
No way are you a bad mother. I bought my 2 sons a selection box each, however got a bit peckish the other night and ate one!! Then I realized that I must always treat them equal, that meant I couldnt just give one of them a box. \the result, yep you guessed it. I ate the other one. So none of them get a selection box. To me that is being a good mother, treting them fairly. |
Must stop reading this thread now, my daughters friend gave her a thorntons choc. father christmas this morning and it is torturing me from the kitchen!
|
Larissa - how would I know? I have only got two tins of roses locked in a combination lock samsonite suitcase where nobody else can find them!!!:D I only eat them when they have all gone to bed - yes I am a chocolate vampire:scared:

It's in the job description " All mummies have the right to test out all foodstuffs (especially choccies) before anyone else gets to them. Kepp it up you're doing a fine job!!! booboo;) |

It's me again
just remembered some years back I bought hubby an easter egg but it was broken. I thought "I can't give my beloved an egg in this condition" so I promptly ate it.... I also forgot to buy him a replacement....You ought to have seen his face when I had to explain what had happened. I had to tell him it was a sign of my true undying love for him thtat I could not give him an egg that was not up to the quality he would expect and tht he deserved.... :eek: booboo hehehehe |

Actually, I'm starting to feel a bit sick now, so I might leave off :D Larissa |
This thread has made me feel not as guilty as I used to feel, knowing now that I am not alone !! :D :D
|
all this talk of chocolate has reminded me that I have opened my advent calendar for a few days.
Just got it from the other room..... and the last choco date was 9th, that means I have 7 bits of chocolate to eat, excuse me for a while :D :D :D |
