Welcome to my world. As an openly self-confessed all-rounder, I
find that my mood not only instigates the urge to abduct the fridge or grocery
cupboard, it also dictates the quantity of food ‘warranted’ to cope with the
level of emotion. In fact, if there was
such a thing as an emotional scale indicator, my monstrous eating habits would
trigger off a warning light, implying self-destruction.
So how does one cope with an all-rounded
affair with food? I’ve spent most of the
day trying to research an answer, but Google
seems to be re-directing me towards an encyclopedia of cooking websites; The Barefoot Contessa was offering her
professional advice on how to drizzle strawberries with a creamy mixture of chocolate
Ganache, Jamie Oliver presented readers with a chance to win a cooking lesson
in London (flights and accommodation included), and Food Network’s Paula Deen was offering advice on how to relieve “cooking
stress.”
I’m officially “out of the closet!” It’s been
ages since I last examined its interior, but the truth is that none of the
clothes inside seem to fit. My dress
sense has mirrored a 60s version of Demis Roussos, and a kaftan appears to be the
most suitable option to help conceal those monstrous eating bumps.
As soon as the Cyprus government resolves its
banking issues, my emotional levels and eating habits will stabilise. There’s
another public holiday coming up, and one of the prerequisites is to steer
clear of all possible political upsets.
But how does one keep away from the Easter Bunny?
