Spanish Persimon

Hello all!

I have recently discovered the persimmon, a fruit I can actually eat! No ill effects, no grumbling tummy, no cramp, just a nice, sweetish taste, very satisfying indeed! You eat them like apples and they taste like pears! Truly wonderful!

As it's that time of year I thought I'd try a satsuma at the weekend - they used to be my favourite thing about December, alas no more

I have my follow up appointment on 8th December, my pelvic MRI on 16th and my colonoscopy on 18th December (I received a lovely package of senna tablets and two sachets through the post at the weekend!), I'm still experiencing sharp stabbing pains in my abdomen, but I'm only having 2 BMs daily, and the moonface has stopped growing (though my hands and feet keep cramping - that's an odd feeling!)..

Fingers crossed all goes well - go and try some persimmon!

Oo I don't think I'd go that mad on them - I'm only having one a week, just to satisfy that part of me that sometimes craves 'healthy' sugars! Aside from that I'm sticking well and truly to Mars Bars..!

variety is good...lol. I'd skip the taffies and ranchers and stay in the chocolate category (it has so much to offer).

I don't know what twirl or wispa is..off to google.


Just looked them up....seems you're still in the similar variety. You might have to branch out a bit, lol

This discussion is sacrilege. Where is the dark chocolate in your diet? Didn't a recent study link eating copious amounts of dark chocolate to curing colitis? I will have to go find that study....

Terry's chocolate orange. Yes!!! The raspberry was really good, discontinued :-b They should maybe add a persimmon one. hmmmm

Keep up the good habits,

Hi..you would have loved the raspberry!
I'd personally pass on the shortbread for brekkie, but taste is subjective.
