If you had eaten a full roast dinner four hours ago (resisting dessert)......

..... and you could have anything you liked for your tea, what would you have?

Fatness or any other health hazards can be totally disregarded.

For me: Cucumber sarnies, sherry trifle, a slice of cold treacle tart, and a piece of Victoria sponge sandwich. I can dream can't I? Sigh.

I feel totally wiped out today after yesterday's marathon effort in the kitchen. Maybe I'm getting too old for big family get-togethers. DH and DS have gone fishing so I'm enjoying a coffee while I think about what to cook everyone for supper. I think a large pot of chilli-con-carne in the slow cooker should do the trick and is pretty effortless.

Everyone goes home tomorrow and I'll miss them like mad as I face the pile of washing. hmm

Mmmmm - buttered toast. Allowed to cool a little so not all the butter soaks in. Or a buttered scone or buttered crusty bread...
Maybe it's just the butter I am craving!
This thread is doing me no good at all as today is one of my fast days so nothing but tea and water until this evening sad

Oh how I used to love buttered toast or crumpets for Sunday supper but I've developed a wheat intolerance and if I weaken and have a slice of toast (other than a small slice of spelt toast) I'm paying for it for hours.

I'm low carbing so it's good to completely give up bread but that doesn't stop me missing the one time of the week when I really enjoyed it.

Some of you guys are really literal, aren't you?! It was anice fantasy question, and i found it fun to consider what i might eat in that hypothetical situation. I REALLY don't belong here.

Fish, ( A large Plaice fillet ) chips, mushy peas, a huge gherkin, and scraps, from the wonderful Fish and Chip shop in Aldeburgh, Suffolk.
Trust me, you would not have room for anything else !!!!
This would be washed down with a pot of Assam tea.
Oh crumbs, now my mouth is watering at the very thought of this imaginary feast?.
