Chocolate Keeps You Warm at This Cold Snowy Season?

It was yesterday when Patty, my classmate from Taiwan, text me and asked whether I would like to accompany her for a Christmas Shopping in Leeds City Center. I can never resist an invitation to go shopping (even just for a window-shopping or accompany someone to buy stuffs), so there I replied her text and said YES. Hahaha...

So this afternoon, we met in front of the Parkinson Building (the landmark of Leeds Uni) after she done with her class at 2.30 PM and walked together head up to the city center. Just like me, her main plan was to buy a gift for this Secret Santa event at our school. It's a simple event where everyone put their names on a box and took away others name, and give a present to the one whose name have been taken by us. The rule was to buy a present that cost not more than 5 pounds and we're suppose to hand in the present tomorrow. We then can collect our present on Friday in the administration room.

I took a name and it's a guy's name. At first, I began thinking to search for a pair of gloves, a  scarves, or a hat, just anything to keep you warm in these cold snowy days. But no good gloves or scarves or hat cost less than 5 pounds, so I think the safest gift was to buy him a box of chocolate. Sweet, delicious, plus there are so many tasty chocolates with special price at this  Christmas Sale season. Patty and I gone to several cute shops around city center and have found several targeted items there, but we still decided to browse until we reach Marks & Spencer's Shop.



I found this big box of chocolate, which looks so much delicious, with just half price and it matched my budget and the Secret Santa rule. I just hope anyone who took my name would give me a bigger box of chocolate tomorrow :D *let's hope and cross your fingers please for me*
