Another possible topic. "Holidays". Mother's Day isn't a holiday, nor is Halloween. They're just days when something happens. Christmas is a holiday because you don't go to work.

My daughter-in-law and I both have birthdays in the first half of April, so there is rather a glut of chocolates (the preferred present in our family) what with Mother’s Day, birthdays and Easter. Not that you can ever have too many chocolates!

What a fun time to have a birthday! And yes, you can never have too many chocolates, especially if it’s British chocolate. 😋 Happy early Birthday!
