'It's that time of year again'

Yesterday at work, L announced it was 'that time of year again' and she would be bringing in 'something exciting'. And yes, lo and behold, this morning she brought in a packet of Necco Sweethearts. Yes, they break your teeth; yes, they are pure sugar and nothing else; and yes, they have phased out the message 'fax me'. And no, you can't read most of the hearts as they seem to have added the messages using a 1950s typewriter that ran out of (pink) ink with a drunk at the keys. But none of that has prevented me from consuming 160g of pure sugar/carbohydrate in the last few hours....
