Dreaming of eating random things

Lately I've been noticing an odd trend with my dreams. They've become more vivid and often involve overly indulgent eating. On several occasions I've woken up elated to discover that I did not in fact eat an entire bowl of icing or 10 pieces of birthday cake, despite it being a very pleasant experience to dream about. The other night I awoke with a strange taste in my mouth and the memory of having eaten one copy each of the most recent Good Charlotte and hellogoodbye cds (I have never heard the former and I work with the latter). It's not as though I don't eat a lot during the day or never indulge in sweets so I have no idea what's causing this recurrent theme! I bought a large container of mint chocolate chip ice cream to be safe though, just in case I was really depriving myself. All in the name of dream therapy...
