If you’ve polished off your entire Advent calendar already, you’re definitely not alone!
The holiday season is a cherished time for family gatherings, giving, and enjoying the festive cheer. It’s a period to reflect on our blessings, experience the holidays anew through our children’s eyes, and, most importantly, indulge in those delectable Advent calendar chocolates. Yes, all of them. In one sitting.
What is an Advent Calendar?
An Advent calendar serves as a delightful countdown to Christmas, traditionally spanning four Sundays leading up to the big day, with many calendars kicking off on December 1st. These whimsical calendars often feature tiny flaps or doors that unveil festive scenes, but who cares about that when there’s chocolate tucked behind each one?
The Temptation of Chocolate
Chocolate-filled Advent calendars are as wonderful as they sound. Imagine waking up to chocolate for breakfast every morning for 25 days straight! Well, that’s the idea, but it assumes we possess the self-control needed to leave those tempting treats behind their tiny doors for the entire season.
However, since these doors lack locks, there’s a good chance that the chocolates may not last even a single day. Judging by some Twitter confessions, it seems many have succumbed to temptation almost immediately.
It’s somewhat reassuring to realize that many of us (ahem) are in the same boat. Unfortunately, my own Advent calendar met an early demise this year, putting my kid’s calendars at risk. “Gee kids, I have no idea why doors number 11-15 are empty. Maybe you’ve upset Santa?”
Inspiration from Others
Take, for instance, a woman who managed to finish hers before Thanksgiving. Well played! It’s been a long year, and if sneaking away to devour 25 chocolates in one go while hiding in a closet with the door locked provides a moment of relief, then why not?
This lady is a total inspiration! Perhaps those of us struggling with our Advent calendars should add “limit ourselves to one chocolate a day” to our New Year’s resolutions, right alongside “eat healthier” and “be more patient.” It’s a thought worth considering!

Conclusion
In summary, it seems that many are finding humor in their lack of self-control when it comes to Advent calendar chocolates. While the intent is to savor one treat a day, the reality for many is a quick chocolate binge. As we approach the New Year, perhaps it’s time to add some chocolate moderation to our resolutions!
