I use to love, love, love, love heart sweets when I was little. Could not eat them, fast enough.
Ripping the packaging off to see what the next one said.
“keep cool”
“in love”
“cool dude”
When I saw this tube of little packs in the pound shop, I could not wait to make something with them….
I did not expect them to go as fast as this though!!
