I just had a hot chocolate and marmite toast. It's like a nostalgia punch to the face because it was my favourite thing to have when I was reading my Famous Five books as a child. The sweet and salty contrast is just DIVINE.

What's your most comforting comfort snack?

The day I ‘cheer myself up with ironing’ is the day my friends can tenderly shoot me.

Oh that did make me laugh , I’m not even sure where my iron is , probably buried under a pile of toast and crumpets !

I don't snack, dreadful habit.
Depending on the time of day, I would either have lunch or, if the sun would be over the yardarm, have a single malt whisky.
Generally, though, I don't cheer myself up with food. I might do some ironing, listen to music, play the piano or watch something or even read a book.

Ah yes- me neither I much prefer a thimble of bourbon and scrubbing the toilet.

Can confirm I not only snack on toast but also don't own an iron. I'm DREADFUL.
