OMG - that's hysterical. I'm not a huge Cadbury Egg fan but we did buy some at the store last week and I remember thinking, "Didn't they used to be bigger?".

Molly - Si. I prefer the bigger eggs.

Stef - She reads my site. If I don't get a comment from her soon I will pester her in email. :)

K - Totally scandalous. :)

Avi - And he's handsome. I'm with you, I'll be right over to share two eggs at a time.
