Have you ever spent a morning/afternoon cooking stuff and not being able to
eat it 'cause you're not hungry.

Ticks me off. Now I have to freeze. Not a bad idea, I know, but always
better fresh - Mulligatawny Soup is what I made.

i do the same thing, especially doing holiday cooking!

I don't freeze it though; theres a ton if stuff in my freezer and it
never seems to geet used. I LIKE to cook my dinner. If I'm not in the
mood, we go out.

I eat it the next day and it's a treat. I can remember how good it was
when I was making it and I look forward to sitting down to a hearty
serving of whatever I've made.

I agree though, about some things being better fresh. I like to make
enough of dinner to pack it for lunch a day or two later. I try not to
be ina rut - tues dinner for weds lunch, weds dinner for thurs lunch
- but instead, tues dinner for thurs lunch, a sandwich weds, a salad
thurs, wed dinner for fri lunch, etc.

Nope. :-)

I was restrained last night. I had prepared some ice cream base the other
day and forgot about it. Last night after dinner I noticed we had run out
of cookies so I figured it was a good time to make another batch. It seemed
like a good time to put the base in the ice cream maker. I had finished
dinner, but I can't make a batch of cookies without eating at least one.

This isn't what puts me off food. Sometimes just cooking will actually
kill my appetite <shrug>

I've read where just standing over the stove inhaling the aromas is
enough to take the hunger pangs away.

Happens to me all the time. I'll have a craving for something, soup, stew,
pot roast, whatever. Spend time prepping, browning, cooking. The whole
place smells heavenly. And when it's ready I have no appetite. And I don't
nibble when I cook. A simple taste or two to adjust for seasonings is about
it. It's irritating but at least I don't have to cook again the next day

This doesn't happen to me. Quite the opposite, in fact.

I bet "tasting" has something to do with it too.

It happens to my SIL all the time. She's very slim.

I do that all the time. I'll cook all day, not eat, not be hungry (and I'm
not tasting, either!) and then I don't eat the finished product. It's
almost a daily thing! LOL.
