I have trouyble with my nerves and can only eat certain colour foods on certain days. My husband is getting fed up of this but I can't help myself. I want to show him I can cook decent meals even while sticking to the proper colour for the day. So what can I give him that goes with sweetcorn and smash, as today is a yellow day?

oh franny it was you!

I had a lovely time planning taasty menus

obviously something which defeats me in daily life pmsl

it's my academic nature i found it quite interesting

and was waiting for someone to come on and talk about mockingpeople with food and obsessive disorder problems

FrannyandZooey · 15/03/2007 13:55

yes that was about the long and the short of it, colditz

blardy excellent, F&Z

FrannyandZooey · 15/03/2007 13:58

Yes zippi you were absolutely superb and I have utter respect for your knowledge of green food

yes I can only agree it was making fun of certain OCD type problems and I hope no-one felt upset

I am a bit OCD myself and found it funny, but it is different when you have started the joke yourself

It is GENIUS

My day is turning out OK actually thanks myslittlestar, I am still in my pyjamas, have eaten almost an entire jar of peanut butter and the kids are watching telly in their pants

PS - Franny eats creme eggs

Greensleeves · 15/03/2007 13:59

Pshaw, all the best jokes are offensive to some fucker

FrannyandZooey · 15/03/2007 13:59

only on brown days

FrannyandZooey · 15/03/2007 14:00

(the creme eggs I mean)

I was heavily influenced by the Greeny style of comedy

it was an Homage a Greeny, really

Greensleeves · 15/03/2007 14:01

Do you get "brown, white and lurid tartrazine yellow" days?

Honestly, funniest thread I've seen in months

THE DAILY SNAIL - VIEWPOINT

'Frannyandzooey, previously trusted member of the Mumsnet community, was today lambasted as she admitted "It may or may not have been me. I don't care. i hate them anyway, and I smoke at babies"

We beg you Frannie, if not for us, then for the children, don't excite the Mentally Ill. or paedophiles and immigrants will come and camp in our back gardens.'

colditz · 15/03/2007 14:02

I was pulling your leg!

Hassled · 15/03/2007 14:03

Thank you, F&Z - I was walking down the street chuckling to myself about it earlier today!

zippitippitoes · 15/03/2007 14:04

it actually made me think of ds whom we tease about his hatred of red food..doesn't eat anything red and in fact for a long time only ate white and off white beige food

I have skills in this

3andnomore · 15/03/2007 14:12

I must admit I never ever heard of a diet of any kind that means you can only eat the same coloured food in one day...hm....have not read the whole thread, so, maybe there is an explanation here somewhere already...

3andnomore · 15/03/2007 14:14

Was this thread a wind up...oh...there are days I so wish I wasn't as thick as I am, lol!

Washersaurus · 15/03/2007 14:21

This thread was comedy genius! pmsl yesterday when I was reading it

FrannyandZooey · 15/03/2007 14:43

Sorry, it was while we were waiting for news on the SWMNBN mediation, and I thought it might take people's minds off it

3andnomore · 15/03/2007 14:53

hunkermunker · 15/03/2007 14:58
