Thanks dizzy and psychopathbabble!

I am now part way through my second large mug of coffee (yeah, water would have been better:o) and have (slightly) deadened the hunger.

I have decided that the boost of caffeine will be put to good use..... I am going for a walk/jog as a divertion tactic:eek:

With any luck I will be able to run fast enough to shake off the fairies. At worst I will have killed some time before dinner

Just eat some fruit hun rather than try kill the hunger if you're hungry then you need to be stoking the old boiler Im munching on melon now even tho ive just eaten a mahoosive bowl of soup/stew and its nearly tea time.....but Im hungry and melon is free!!

I wasn't saying don't eat!! Just to distract yourself from the chocolate fairies... An apple just doesn't cut it.

Although if you are really actually hungry then definitely eat something!

Don't worry I won't stop eating - I just know that it is a craving and not proper hunger. I will eat some fruit when I get back if I'm still hungry

Catch you all later. Cat.

Theres loads of variations of it, but the topping bit is usually the same. I do a veggie one thats nomnomnom and cheap as chips.

frylight fry some onion, peppers, and a pinch of flaked chilli (or can use fresh)

In an ovenproof dish lay some cooked chopped new potatoes and the cooked veggies.

in a dish put a tub of cottage cheese & 4 eggs a good amount of salt & pepper to season. beat it all together & pour over the veggie mix.

Bake in the oven 180 for about 30-40 mins until firm to touch. serve hot or cold. free on green & EE (if you didnt use spuds it would be free on red too)

Some people put ham in the bottom as a base but Ive not tried that one. Its also nice if you have any fresh chives to put in the topping.
