Pie.

No other answer is acceptable in the 21st century.

Any man who refuses to step up and eat it like he means it isn't really a man. That goes double for women.

What? Not that kind of pie? FFS

Then Team Dessert:

Apple Pie with aged cheddar

Black Forest Cake

New York Cheesecake (AKA "Pie Cake") plain, just the way God made it.

NRJ and Honey: Thank you both for being you...

:heart:

Now you're confusing things again.

Need pie.

:D
 
I love a good cake, but I have pie more often so I'm going to have to go with that, if pressed.

Top examples? For sweet - a key lime is hard to beat, but a really good sweet and tart fruit pie comes close.

For savoury - a vintage cheddar, leek, and mushroom pasty, with tarragon, cider, and mustard for added flavour... that's heaven.

Alright let's get into it, guys...

Team Cake or Team Pie? And what's the best of your team?

Literally - Team Cake (Chocolate Fudge Cake from a local bakery, heavenly).

Metaphorically - LOL - still Team Cake. "That ass isn't going to eat itself".
 
As someone who's bday is close to Thanksgiving and who only ever gets pie for her birthday - I am firmly on team cake.

but...

If we throw cobbler in the mix???

I was team pie ( my grandma used to make the most divine cherry pineapple pie ever )

BUT now that cobbler is in the mix... yep... I’m definitely a cobbler girl... Ty PLP for side tracking my diet😇💕
 
Cobbler can give cake a run for it's money.

LOL - I know what eating cake is metaphorically. I know what eating pie is, metaphorically. Now I am confused trying to figure out what eating cobbler is!

What do you do affect your own mood?

I.e. How do you break out of a funk? Are you a fake it til you make it kind of person? What about sexually? How do you "turn it on" when you need to?

(A peek behind the kimono - I couldn't figure out how to phrase this question so answer however you feel.)

Im fake it til you make it, put on a brave face and walk out the door, leave life stresses in the home and get on with the day. Sexually: depends where I am and who im with, can be flirting, flirty eyes across the room or even thinking of someone else (if I have to) and what I would do to them.

Honest answer, I try to just be positive, If I am in a funk, I just push through until I am at a point to deal with it properly.

there’s no one answer to this query. the mind is a tricky place. i've had things happen to me that have made me shut down emotionally, then i’ve snapped out of it for no apparent reason. and i’ve fought through situations refusing to get in or stay in the funk. but, when it comes to sex, i’ve always fucked my way out of it. something about being lost in sexually pleasure that just fixes things. ya know, sexual healing. ;)

I unfortunately enjoy the comfort of my funks. If you try to make me get out of it, I will probably despise you for it. When I am ready get out, I will. Sexually. Ugh, I have to fake it. It's unfortunate but not remotely enjoyable, but you have to do what you have to do for your partner.

I try to do things that make me feel better about myself - gym, spa, etc. that said, most time, perspective snaps me out of bad ‘funks’. I’m prone to pretty bad anxiety which can make me depressed and feel out of control, but when I see or read things that make me think, ‘there but for the grace of God go I’, I usually get over it. Having ptsd from a traumatic medical treatment (and having been sexually assaulted), I never get triggered. I just think about how much worse my experiences could have been and tend to go through waves of activism when I’m able to devote serious time to it.

Sexually, when I’m in a mood, I just say no. I think my spouse (and maybe current other partners?) can read me well enough to know when it ain’t happening. I’m not comforted by tough (I actually don’t like it much outside of intimacy), so I get space to work my shit out. Luckily, my spouse knows that sometimes he’s the verbal punching bag, and never takes it personally.

I don’t fight it - I let the darkness take me, I have learned I cannot outrun it anyway.

I follow none of the advice I give others.

I post in one of my safe corners of lit and strangers keep me afloat.

Then it passes and I replace the beige on my plate with rainbow coloured food and sit in the sunshine and listen to the buskers and look at art and book quirky theatre shows and I feel glad to be alive...

Sexually is too complicated for an answer here.

I shall never be able to repay the kindness of strangers on here. :heart:

My non-sexual funks usually pass within a day or two on their own. There are times I need to turn it on, like if it's Sunday morning and I'm in the pulpit, but I can fake it for that hour or so. Music helps. Depending on the type of funk and how long I've been in it you might find me blasting Nine Inch Nails, opera, ABBA, or zydeco. There's no single recipe that works every time.

Sexually, the single best thing that helps isn't something I can do. I do the vast majority of the initiating when my wife and I have sex. Those few times when she initiates are the absolute best and will cure all my ills. I don't often feel enthusiastically wanted, so when I am it's a thrill.

It depends on how deep the funk is. Normally, I will force myself to take a walk, get outside somehow. Other things I do: read, crossword puzzles, talk to friends, take a drive and listen to music, pray, clean. I am also in the fake it until you make it camp, while waiting for something to change. If it’s really bad, I have a counselor I’ve seen off and on for a long time. I trust her and occasionally medication has helped me get through really dark times when nothing else would work.

Sexually—I don’t know. I think that’s when I give in to the fact that I can only control myself. I can’t control others’ desires and moods. That’s something I have to relearn constantly. So, I do things to make myself feel sexy. I’ve played around on here posting pics but that is more about a rush than sexuality for me. Sometimes I’ll buy some pretty underwear or sexy shoes. Basically pamper myself and wait for that feeling to pass.

In terms of breaking out of a funk - I usually use music, strong, upbeat mood altering music. Sometimes I definitely fake it until I make it, sometimes I can power through by telling myself. "Cowboy Up" and just getting back into the game of life.

I do agree with some of the other posters and think there are times when a certain mood is on you that what you should do is "go with it". Our subconscious creates moods for a reason, usually because there is something unresolved that is lingering. In those cases, then I turn into the mood, be in the moment, and let the root cause of the mood reveal itself so I can work on it.

Sexually, for me, turning on the sensuality is a pretty easy thing. By my nature I am a sensualist, so if I am not in the mood, I can get into the mood by focusing on the sensuality of the moment, or creating a sensual moment, and that then flows into sexuality. (To me, sexuality is a component part of sensuality, a specific expression of a general mindset.)
