Jonathan and I were sitting in a restaurant looking at the dessert menu, and he was exclaiming over how good all the desserts looked. I remember there were 10 desserts on the menu, and 7 of them (yes, I counted them) were bowls of foam topped with foam. So, there was chocolate mousse topped with whipped cream, banana pudding with whipped cream, and some kind of Napoleon (or millefeuille, as the French would say) with - you guessed it - whipped cream. I was upset by that, so I wrote a little review of the restaurant. Then, I looked over at the board that listed the daily specials, and they had tacked up a copy of my restaurant review!
I think this dream stems from the trauma of ordering a Cosmopolitan the other night, and it turning out to be a "Foamapolitan." I seriously had to drink it through a straw. Gross.
Analysis:
Dessert:
1) Dessert in a dream can symbolize a treat or treating yourself, indulgence, self-reward, or self-soothing. The "dessert course" of a meal could symbolize the end part of an interaction or phase, since dessert is served at the end of a meal. Eating dessert can also mean that you are actually hungry or craving sweets.
2) To see a tasty dessert in your dream, represents indulgence, celebration, reward, or temptation. You are enjoying the good things in life.
Food:
1) A quality associated with the food's texture, such as a banana representing slippery or making a misstep. For more clues, consider the context of the food (whether it's being eaten, tastes good or bad, is being served to you, etc.) and what comes to mind when you think of the specific type of food.
2) Food is symbolic of a large variety of things. It could symbolize pleasure and indulgence. To the perpetual dieter, the dream could have a "compensatory" function where the food that is denied to the individual during the day shows up in the dream state. Dreams could additionally symbolize physical, mental, spiritual and emotional nourishment.
3) To see food in your dream, represents physical and emotional nourishment and energies. The different types of food can symbolize a wide range of things. Generally, fruit is symbolic of sensuality. Frozen foods may imply your cold emotions and frigid ways. Eating certain foods refers to qualities that you need to incorporate within your own self.
Foam:
1) To see foam in your dreams represents wishes or unrealistic expectations
Writing:
1) Writing is a means of communication. In dreams it may be a symbol of communicating with others, but it mostly represents communication with oneself. If you are writing in a dream or reading someone else's writing, it may be an unconscious effort to become aware of forces or issues in life. Writing is a secondary form of communication. Speaking is more direct and less cumbersome for most. Thus, the written message in your dream may be disguised or may be less genuine than other forms of receiving information from the unconscious. You may be trying to figure something out and this might be the first step in that process.
2) To dream of writing, or to see another person writing in a dream, signifies a need to listen to one's inner voice for advice on dealing with a real life situation.
3) To dream that you are writing, signifies some sort of communication with someone or with your conscious mind. It also denotes a mistake that you have made.
