When I was little I have fond memories of waking up on Christmas morning to find a stocking (or a carrier bag in latter years!) filled with treats, hung just inside my bedroom on the old fashioned towel rail to explore! It usually had a net of chocolate coins, wrapped in their glitzy gold foil, a traditional Clementine and a few small toys to play with. I will have to ask my parents if there was anything else as I can't quite remember that far back!
Of course the main event of the stockings contents was of course the chocolate and now I am sadly a grown up I don’t tend to get given a stocking by Santa (I obviously must have been far too naughty!) but this year I have been given this gorgeous festively red knitted Christmas stocking from luxury chocolate makers Godiva! It has a beautiful gold Poinsettia design and you can reuse it next year too!
Inside the Godiva Christmas stocking its stuffed with a selection of limited edition Milk, Dark and White chocolates, all in festive designs and retails at £17. Needless to say as much as chocolate coins wrapped in foil still warm my heart, the luxury Godiva chocolates are a hell of a lot more tastier!

ReplyDeleteI loved getting a selection box, they always seemed to taste much better then the same chocolate bars bought individually
ReplyDeleteI don't remember anything in particular that I loved, but I always remember the clementine in my stocking. It seemed extra special on Christmas Day, which is bizarre as I ate them through the year.
ReplyDeleteChocolate money, I used to love them
ReplyDeleteI was obsessed with the Smurf! So anything related with these tiny, blue characters meant the world to me. Even today lol:)
ReplyDeleteI didn't really get stockings every year but I do remember one year when I did get one, it had little gifts and a clementine. No chocolate in there but there was always so much around on Christmas that it was probably a good idea not to put any in the stocking!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds so bad but I always really just looked forward to the little sweeties and mini chocolates that sank to the bottom. Though I loved all of the things in my stocking, I was a greedy little grub as a child! :)
ReplyDeleteI always loved a Terry's chocolate orange!
ReplyDeleteLots of Tangerines x
