Chocolate Time!
Chocolate time! Starting or finishing the day, chocolate is there for you! A bar or just a piece of chocolate, maybe chocolate in a box, or drinking choc in a cup. Chocolate is easily available and it brings a moment to enjoy, at the start of the day in Gibraltar with churros maybe, although that’s a great combo anytime of day, or before turning in at the end of the day. But when it comes to the end of the day, should you drink a cup of chocolate to ensure a good night’s sleep, or, a cup of cocoa? It might seem that cocoa should be the choice, but, cocoa has no less caffeine than chocolate. People who are very sensitive to caffeine may find it affects their sleep quality if they eat dark chocolate or drink hot cocoa too close to bedtime as both the caffeine and the theobromine in the cocoa bean are stimulants. However, hot chocolate made with cocoa mix is usually less caffeinated. ..drink chocolate to start the day!.. Chocolate is made from the cocoa bean, the name of the seed found in the fruit of cacao trees, which grow near the Equator. The beans are […]

In summer months in the North puffins will be seen in quantity in their colonies on the cliffs of Shetland and Orkney and further north in Iceland, home to more than half of the world’s puffin population but where do they go once the winter months arrive?…that, it seems, depends where the puffin colony is based but the UK’s puffins, the Atlantic puffin (fratercula arctica), spend the winter out at sea, in the North Atlantic and Arctic Ocean, feeding on fish and marine invertebrates. They are well-adapted to a life lived mostly on the water and can even […]
