1. Can I make this any smaller? 
 
 Do you actually have a proverb in English in mind? Or are you just continuing with DTCF�s personal alternative to the caption contest?

"Hunger is the best spice." "Hunger has big eyes." (translated from Czech :-) = "Eyes are bigger than my stomach."

@ Miss Sylvie Smarty-pants.  
 
 The finer points of British history are obviously not your strong point; see  here, for example (about half way down).
