PMT

Perfect Moment for Total-pig-out

Thinks.. wonder what Johns excuse is :-)

Today we had lovely cheese sandwiches at Johns' mum with a fantastic treacle pudding for pudding. I can't tell you how many calories were in that lunch but I am sure it was over the recommended daily allowance. So glad we had some bits of lettuce and other healthy veggies as well, at least I don't have to beat myself up over those!

Anyway, generally we just top the Saturday off with a bowl of cereal (chocolate shreddies is the latest, they are brilliant, they have bad things in them of course like sugar and chocolate and all that BUT they also have 6.9 grams of fibre per serving (I think, could be per 100 not sure now) and can be classed therefore as good-ish food).

So not today.. At around 6 John felt pekish in 'something' savoury. And since we are trying to empty the freezer (since I fear of health and safety issues due to old age of the products and the occasional de-freeze when we leave the door open accidentally) he thought a pizza would be a good idea.

Well... I am a fan! Love pizza.. in Holland we have a pizza per person, SOME people might have a salad on the side but these people are never in my company somehow. I can devour any pizza easily on my own but when I tried to put 2 pizza's in the oven the first time John and I would have pizza he looked at me like I was going MAD.

Of course.. one only ever eats half a pizza and then adds something else. So I thought, lettuce? Garlic bread? Olives?

No silly, baked beans of course! (Ah.. I see.. .yeah why not add some more carbodhydrates to an already very stodgy item of food :-))

Anyway, after 5 years I am used to this now. I have come to terms that pizza is eaten in halves and has baked beans added to it. Probably even marginally better calorie and fat wise.

Yesterday we had been talking about all the things we should not forget to eat because they are in danger of going 'off'. Amongst these are about 5 tins of HP spaghetti. (WHAT? TINNED spaghetti?? YUK!) Of course these have only been bought by John FOR John when he has an emergency like me being in Holland and him not wanting to put any effort in at all.

So.. can you see this one coming?

He looked at me with a very cheeky enthusiastic grin and said 'remember that we had this conversation yesterday and wouldn't it be a good idea to have a pizza and have the spaghetti with it'!? I mean.. how can anyone say no to a beautiful face like that?

I couldn't.. so I gave him 7/8th of the tin and the rest to myself but even that amount was just too absolutely yukkie to believe. Why is it allowed to make and sell this AND then say with added vitamines and minerals. Added! Brrrr..

And what is this thing here about making all tomato things taste sweet anyway? And to eat carbs with carbs? Like chipsbutties is a normal thing? Battered and fried pizza?

Brr... 'You are so welcome to that' I will say next time!

To make it better I unfroze some applecake and had that with double cream, that did satisfy the PMT animal.

Lets pray for the break through to come quickly before a break out happens to my face :-)
