No, no, wait...its all wrong Barry, I can't let you do that to yourself. You need to warm them, get the aroma spreading through the kitchen, taste the warm spices, feel the juiciness....you are missing out on sooooo much!!

Re: Emotional Eating or Not?

Because I don't have naughty food in the house I turn to the baking cupboard for 'comfort food ' so sour cherries, flaked almonds, dried fruit and I have even been known to eat a whole jelly when desperate .....

When little and desperate it was cocoa and sugar mixed to a paste with water .

If it hits the spot and makes you feel a little bit better, what's the harm, eh?

I just smoke a joint for comfort. Then I get the munchies: cheese on toast. Then I get a little thirsty: beers in the fridge. Then I fancy another joint.

Whatever makes you feel better D00d. Never tried a joint, just the smell of them round here makes me want to
