Thank you Mumsnet. This week I have eaten all sorts of toasty machine concoctions, stocked up on Double Deckers and Starbars and have double peanut butter Magnums in the freezer.

DS will be in bed in about an hour and I expect all remaining chocolate and ice creams to be gone before morning.

I'm supposed to be on a diet!!! Grin

I am making some chocolate hot cross buns if anyone wants one? They'll be fresh out of the oven in about 45 minutes.

Chocolate toasties are a must try. Crunchies in bread and toasties were the best hangover food when I was a teen and on MD 20/20

Oh good God, I've been avoiding that toaster thread like the plague Grin

manicinsomniac · 14/03/2016 18:15

What did mumsnet have to do with you eating those things? I don't get it?

I picked the wrong week to try and cut out sugar. I'm dying to try pancakes in the toastie maker. And cake. I'm doomed.SadCake

LoisWilkersonsLastNerve · 14/03/2016 18:24

hell yes please!

ALemonyPea · 14/03/2016 18:26

Manic, because Op was unaware of these food things before she read MN.

Peanut butter magnums? Where?

GooseberryRoolz · 14/03/2016 18:29

If it kicks off, you might want to ask HQ for a thread title edit Grin

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 14/03/2016 18:31

Gwyneth Paltrow recommended you eat treat foods in front of a mirror in your underwear to avoid over indulging.
Just a thought. I haven't tried it. Smile

Chocolate hot cross buns sound nice.

Sunnyshores · 14/03/2016 18:31

WHHAAAAT, pancakes in the toaster? need more info

FlyingRussianUnicorn · 14/03/2016 18:32

YABU OP. Share your peanut magnums and I may change my mind Wink

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 14/03/2016 18:33

Sorry to break this to you Sunny but I think you need one of those sandwich toaster machines.

Anniegetyourgun · 14/03/2016 18:40

Derek, I have to ask, why did you try a champagne ice cream knowing you don't like champagne? You can't have been totally surprised to find it wasn't your thing.

IMO the only Magnums worth eating are almond, although the strawberry white chocolate ones are jolly as well (limited edition dammit).

No hot cross buns for me thank you, not even chocolate ones. Dead fruit is agin my religion.

PageStillNotFound404 · 14/03/2016 18:42

I had to go to the Special Local Chocolate Shop this afternoon, after that thread about favourite chocolate bars.

Annie all fruit is dead! It's not alive in the fruit bowl Grin

I'm with you on disliking regular hot cross buns though. The sultanas are all squidgy and the cinnamon is foul.

wheelofapps · 14/03/2016 18:46

I like the Espresso Magnums. Yum.

My dietician suggested the same thing about the mirror. To a person with long standing food issues. In a very nasty way. She is no Gwyneth herself, to be fair. Not even original either.

hellhasnofurylikeahungrywoman · 14/03/2016 18:46

No fruit in them Annie just chocolate chunks instead Grin

summerdreams · 14/03/2016 18:46

Yabu ive been doing bloody slimfast for a week nightmare im desperate for some chocalate!

Anniegetyourgun · 14/03/2016 18:47

Fair point, but some are deader than others.

Pistachio magnums sound promising actually, may give those a try.

Anniegetyourgun · 14/03/2016 18:48

Ooh, chocolate instead of dead fruit? Hmm... ok then, send one over, I'll bite Grin

KissingFish · 14/03/2016 18:52

Just bathed the child and he's already in bed. 10 mins early. Winning!

I am doing 30,000 steps a day and I have decided I am not going to let myself eat any of my hoard until I have hit the magic number. 15,000 steps to go Shock

Chocolate hot cross buns are heaven. Booths chocolate hot cross buns are heaven dipped in chocolate. I live next door to a Booths. I need say no more.

Anniegetyourgun · 14/03/2016 18:55

Hence the need for the 30,000 steps, I presume.
