Greedy Guts

I’m going out for dinner tonight at a rather nice restaurant – so I thought I’d better have quite a light day foodwise.  I had a bowl of muesli and a satsuma for breakfast.  And then an, admittedly early, lunch of Bubble & Squeak – left over champ from yesterday’s supper fried up in a little olive oil.  All told I only cooked up 4 potatoes so that basically means that despite the frying all I had for lunch was two medium spuds and some cabbage.

So feeling a little peckish around 5 I thought I’d have a slice of toast.  Except I didn’t just have ‘a slice’, I had one slice toast & gentleman’s relish, then one slice bread and apricot jam (to taste the apricot jam I’d just bought coz I’ve got guests tomorrow) and it was so, well not yummy exactly but moreish, that I had a third slice.  Which was completely unecessary and now I’ll probably still be quite full when I get to the restaurant.

Doh.  Why do I do this?
