I'm glad you like the orange chocolate candy. I don't...

Oh, wow! That would make for a very nice way to live, in my opinion. Eventually I'd get tired of going from house to house all the time, though.

@DaddyEvil I think that could happen. I'm hoping it does in my case in a way. Then I'd be happy to stay put.

I think 'gross' is a bit harsh. I'm glad Vince doesn't like them. All the more for me!

We know a lady who doesn't have a house, has all her things in storage and house-sits basically full-time.

@JudyEv I see these often at IGA. I recently tried the ones you get in the bag. So cute with the little slices of "orange" lol I didn't really like them though. I remember I used to eat Jaffas when I was little but didn't like them anymore one day. Not sure if they are still around actually. That was nice of your son to give you one. Really nice you've got another house sitting job in August.

When we were there he also gave me a bag of the loose segments but they are long gone.

I'm wondering if I ate too many as my lips are going funny and a bit puffy. I'm sure it's nothing. It might be the toothpaste.

I got one or two in my stocking over the years. I was watching a YouTube video where the kids opening their stockings received a chocolate orange chocolate BAR, not in the shape of an orange. Kind of takes the fun out of it.

You can buy the segments loose now too. But you're right - the fun is in the shape and in tapping it so it falls apart.
