Emotional Eater !
I'm quietly confident that I am not alone in this statement...
"I'm an emotional eater"
I've always known this, but somehow through the years, I've come to truly recognise it, embrace it and in my own little way, work with it.
When I feel let down by someone or annoyed - I want to munch. When sad and tired - I need the warming cup of tea in my hands. When content and full of joy - I want to bake and share it with everyone.
These days I don't believe in restriction, but believe in being conscious of what my body actually needs. Is it time out on my own with a book or perhaps a glass of wine and non-stop talking with a friend. Perhaps a bowl full of greens to make me feel on top of the world again, or in those rare moments...Haighs chocolate.
For me, this recipe came on a day when I needed colour and beauty. I wanted to feel light and uplifted with pretty and fresh flavours dancing on the tip of my tongue.
