So it's January, I seem to have been here before.... cold...damp...peckish...post Christmas blues...peckish....financially challenged... did I mention PECKISH? It comes but once a year... if I'm honest I LOVE January... well, I might as well, there are 31 long days in January, it's freezing outside & in and it really definitely is NOT a time for lettuce leaves, celery or any abstinence of the foooood kind ! This is most certainly a time to comfort eat, eat & eat... roast dinners, baked pasta dishes, stews, steamed puddings, chocolate brownies with hot chocolate sauce & a bit of double cream... thick butter crust apple pie with glossy 'proper' custard...chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream.... this is food porn of the highest order.
There are 11 more months left in this lovely new year... the diet will most absolutely, definitely, without a donut or a doubt start TOMORROW... !!!
