We have good friends who live in the same lifestyle village that we do. It was through them that we found out about this place. Unlike us, they have a number of grandchildren and will be seeing them all at Christmas. We don’t have any grandchildren and, as we get older, I guess we notice it a bit more.
My friend has made each of the grandies a little sleigh which is full of tiny sweets and chocolates. The ski parts are candy canes and she has wrapped each chocolate separately. Can’t they cute? I did ask her if she had made extra but it seems not.
Tonight, we’re going to see A Castle for Christmas starring Brooke Shields and Cary Elwes. Has anyone seen it? It’s been given a good write-up.
The photo is my friend’s.

She has even found a Father Christmas to put up the front.

The film was a feel-good movie. Very enjoyable. So do you have chocolate frogs there but of another brand? One year, for one of the boys' birthdays, I stuck frogs half in, half out, of green jelly. One little boy wouldn't eat his.

I know the feeling - not exactly the same but - I never married or found anyone or had kids (it's ok, didn't want them), but I realize as some of my age cohort are becoming grandparents, this means I won't have that, either. I wish you much peace surrounding that.
That is a very cute and inventive little treat though and I like the idea of Freddo looks yum!

@JudyEv Aw that is thoughtful. Maybe there is are some neighborhood kids who would benefit from Vince?
