Cravings due to your novel?

[onceiwasaturtle.livejournal.com]

My characters have been stuck in breakfast time their time for three days my time now! They've already had two breakfasts in their one morning, AND I DON'T HAVE ANY CHEESE DANISH IN MY FRIDGE!!! This has produced the most severe cravings on my behalf ... especially considering that I've quarantined myself due to having the swine flu right now, and so the earliest I'll be able to leave home to go to the particular store that sells good Danish is sometime Sunday (two days from now), provided that I get better (which I need to so that I can go to work on Monday)....

But that got me to wondering, have any of you had a situation in your novel that made you crave something? Or has a craving of yours worked its way into the pages of your novel? (Mine just did....)

It sucks because one of my main characters just eats potatoes. Or potato related foods. And she eats a lot. Damn demons.

Demons get all the breaks. ;-)

They really do. Especially this one since she's considered the savior of the world, and gets whatever she wants as a result.

You don't piss off the savior, man.

Oh, definitely not, especially when she's a demon. (My MC is going to be found to be half demon, and will save her whole region. Not someone to piss off!)

(Ha! My main character has a demon possessing her and likes to take over at the least opportune times. Any other moment she's a sweet nine-year-old socially awkward French girl who has been in hiding for the last three years. Who wants her potatoes now.)

*gives the cute little French girl her potatoes and runs while she's distracted*

Good plan, my friend, good plan!
