“My in-laws mailed us a Christmas present that was too bulky and fragile to bring back with us from our visit to them for the holiday.
They included a chocolate orange with instructions to let me break it open, because I missed out on them this year.”
What a lovely story of kindness - I think many of us have struggled with breaking a chocolate orange open at some point!
Thank you @WizardOfDocs for sending this in to us.

Bump up the umami factor in your hot chocolate with soy sauce and milk. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2026/01/07/food-drink/soy-hot-chocolate/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #life #fooddrink #recipes #shoyu #chocolate
What do you mean you don't obsessively count the number of chocolates in a tub of Celebrations every year and put the results into an Excel spreadsheet!?
Anyway, the 2025 results are in:
Bounty x5
Galaxy x5
Galaxy Caramel x5
Maltesers x5
Mars x9
Milky Way x9
Snickers x9
Twix x7
The tub itself has gone down another 50g since 2024 (100g since 2023!)
Hard to believe that I used to give this content to Zuckerberg for free, you're welcome Fediverse!
My original #introduction post is now over 2 years old, so time for a refresh!
I’m Becky, happily married mum of 2 boys at high school (one with #autism, the other awaiting assessment). I suffer with social #anxiety and occasional atypical #depression. We live in the English countryside and run an online business.
I love #animals, #tech (particularly #Apple), #scifi, #space, #80s music, #StarTrek, #Chocolate, #Cake and regularly post #ShotOniPhone and #Caturday pics.
I run a personal blog at https://onlinegoddess.net which mostly contains my daily ramblings about life, autism/SEND, blogging etc.
I lean strong left / progressive, but avoid political chat.
Here for positive vibes, new friends and #Cat pics! 🐈⬛ Feel free to say hi! 👋
