Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

My back-of-the-envelope scratchings suggest that it's not really be downing any more, but everyone gets a smaller volume of better chocolate.

1kg of dubious quality but cheap chocolate isn't a good deal to me.

Oh there's no way anyone in my house is getting a 1kg egg 😆. I don't need crazy, cranky kids (or adults).

I'm just looking at the $10-$15 Warehouse options compared to these $30-$60 ones.

It's once a year though, I'm not against paying that much. I'd certainly prefer these to giving money to global corporations.

.... I was meaning 1kg in aggregate for myriad family members, though now I'm sad that someone somewhere is buying a 1kg crap chocolate egg for their child.

When I was young, one year my grandfather got my grandmother a 1kg egg and all through my childhood I wanted one. Never got one, and now I'm an adult I'd rather just have better tasting chocolate in smaller amounts 😆
