My sweet confession!

I have to start my first blog entry in the new year with a confession: I just opened two packages of sweets and they are already half full (the positive way of saying "half empty"). Why can I never be happy with just one or two sweets? Arrrgh!

I take comfort in, however, that the sweets are 100 percent natural, meaning they are free from preservatives and synthetic colouring and sweeteners. Sjölunda gård, the Swedish farm that makes them, promises that the taste of orange comes from ecologically grown oranges. Even the yellow colour comes from a real orange, and up to 16 percent of the taste comes from fruit juice! I'm impressed and, more importantly, I feel less guilty about having eaten more than my fair share of them.
