I’d have a big plate of nachos with lots of avocado and cheese, a bucket of KFC chicken, a whopper burger, the box of chocolate truffles sitting on my desk that I’m not eating because I’m on a diet, strawberries dipped in fondue and a massive plate of trifle with brandy custard.

I would wash this down with some butterscotch and toblerone cocktails and a bottle of Moet.

What would you eat if you could and it wasnt going to make you fat or unhealthy?
You can see I’ve been on a diet too long!
That reminds me – I forgot – double coated chocolate Tim Tams – and I would eat them until I threw up. Sorry if that offended anyone.

Twas the day after Christmas, and all through the house
Nothing would fit me, not even a blouse.
The cookies I’d nibbled, the eggnog I’d taste
At the holiday parties had gone to my waist.

When I got on the scales there arose such a number!
When I walked to the store (less a walk than a lumber).
I’d remember the marvelous meals I’d prepared;
The gravies and sauces and beef nicely rared,

The wine and the rum balls, the bread and the cheese
And the way I’d never said, “No thank you, please.”
As I dressed myself in my husband’s old shirt
And prepared once again to do battle with dirt—

I said to myself, as I only can
“You can’t spend a winter disguised as a man!”
So–away with the last of the sour cream dip,
Get rid of the fruit cake, every cracker and chip

Every last bit of food that I like must be banished
“Till all the additional ounces have vanished.
I won’t have a cookie–not even a lick.
I’ll want only to chew on a long celery stick.

I won’t have hot biscuits, or corn bread, or pie,
I’ll munch on a carrot and quietly cry.
I’m hungry, I’m lonesome, and life is a bore—
But isn’t that what January is for?

Unable to giggle, no longer a riot.
Happy New Year to all and to all a good diet!

this is the menu for our reception venue, we are going for canapes, because we couldn’t afford to invite everybody we wanted at sit down prices, and for us it was more important who was there, not what we ate
there is also a set childrens menu, so this is for over 13′s. kids get fish and chips
no vegos, and both families love seafood

Since it has a gold seam I thought it would be nice for a rusty look. It has folded ends but I want to put an end to that and create a frayed look (like many expensive denim) just by.. I guess cutting it and let it fray itself. I want it to look a bit distressed and rough so I thought it would be nice for some parts to look as if its been grated by a cheese grater

As for the rustic look, anyone know how I can achieve that? I was thinking of maybe mixing fabric fixative and (oil) paint together, get a pumice stone (stone so rough to rub your dry feet) , lightly dip it and scrub it all over the jeans.. Will this work and will it stay after.. a wash?? Any suggestions of what colour too? (was thinking either black or a deep deep reddish, orange-ish brown)
Will the cheese grater work?

Many thanks !
sweet! Would the cheese grater really work though? Just something from the top of my mind Maybe some sandpaper instead?
