"I'm a mess, I'm a wreck, but you wouldn't know 'cause I'm at my best when I'm with you." - Big Deal.
When I'm feeling tired/sad/anxious/negative, there's not much that makes me feel better in the way that food does. To be honest, sometimes I'm surprised I'm not overweight considering the amount I comfort eat. Also, when I get a craving for food, I HAVE to have it soon or I'll probably get grumpy...
So last night I had to make a cottage pie, and today I had boiled eggs (from Elliott's mum's chicken's bums) and soldiers. I also went all the way to Tesco just for some "choco snaps". I was convinced by the packaging - I'm a sucker for a fat feline.
Feeling pretty tense in general at the moment. I'm pretty sure it's down to my new sessions of CBT and not really knowing what they'll entail, and the Cosmo Blog Awards which are now less than a week away! Hoping I don't have a nervous breakdown by the time it rolls around...!

that cottage pie looks so good! i made a chilli cottage pie (and subsequently 3 since) last year from a recipe in a magazine and it was amazing. if you like chili (not HOT) and sweet potato i suggest you give it a try! http://www.gembear.com/2010/10/chilli-cottage-pie.html (sorry not advertising my blog - just thing this recipe is amazing!).

looks like you've made everyone hungry teehee! and agreed the packaging is far too cute on the choco snaps! xx
I think comfort eating has a bit of a bad press, when 2bh, I feel the same as you in that it cures better than most things I know!
Hope these made you feel much better Lyzi x

Well now I'll be craving running eggs and soldiers for the next week :P Hope you feel less nervous etc soon lovely, but baking is a nice way to distract yourself :)

the food looks good.
i never knew what eggs and soldiers were before now! is it just little bits of toast cut up that you dip in the egg? yum!
very few things please me more than food. even this post is comforting :)
when i'm sad i do the opposite and go off food completely. i have no appetite at all, although the picture of the eggs and soldiers is kind of tempting.
yum! i am officially hungry!

Steffys Pros and Cons
i introduced someone to the concept of eating boiled eggs with soliders and she has informed me her life has been so much better since! it really is the ultimate in comfort food & i hope that you start to feel better soon missy. until then you have full permission to eat as much comfort food as you want, because that is what its there for! xoxox
Oh man I so should not have read this post right now! Haha I'm at work and I didn't have breakfast before I came so those eggs look particularly amazing right now.
Also just wanted to send you some well wishes. Hope you're ok lady. You're amazing!!
Hope you're feeling much better asap xx
