What has happened to me? Usually I am frothing at stewing and planning and figuring out when I should plan my cheats for the week and trying desperately to get one for a white chocolate martini, but this week.......Let's not be stupid--I've got my white chocolate martini, but with my amazing absence of alcohol tolerance, I'll be drinking it for the next two hours. So....what to have with the second one? And more to the point, as my idea of a good night is getting into PJs as early as possible, what can I have without having to get dressed and go somewhere???
This is a tough one. There have been foods I have missed but I have not deemed worthy of a "cheat," such as chocolate or olives (which I only recently discovered to be illegal due to a color stabilizer), and there have been foods I have missed so much that I have had to find legal replacements--such as mustard and pickles, and there have been foods that were initially worth cheats up until they started causing severe stomach upset--such as pizza or anything from a restaurant. But this is like a free cheat! I can have something WITH my martini.
Ah....the possibilities....
While I go prowl the pantry, I want to open this up for discussion. What food would you find hardest to give up?

Unfortunately, all my favourite foods can be easily made with unprocessed ingredients: mostly because of my penchant for Italian and Japanese foods.
Um... potato chips? nachos?
Good luck!
Chocolate - plain and simple.
Oh and btw you seem to be rubbing off. I have been making more stuff from scratch. I have been making jam lately. In one jar batches cause well I am still learning and wow much better then the jar stuff. It really isn't that hard too. You know sometimes it just is not as hard as it looks. Now all I need is more room to store stuff in = ) Plus I found a really great bread recipe that involves nothing but mixing, letting it sit and baking it. So a huge Thank You.
