Hi Tim. Eating from your splendid fridge you kindly showed us the other day?

Indeed... There is also a nice beef casserole for lunches this week, using up carrots and courgette amongst other things...

How did you get on at docs @oldsurveyor ?

Rashers are slices of bacon and pork scratchings are crumbly pieces of cooked pork fat+meat

Haven't been yet.

[MARGAR]

What is Lidl up roll please

 

[Brunneria]

They are high protein rolls, sold in most Lidls. They are (from memory) made mainly of soya flour, wheat protein and seeds. 27g protein and 8(?)g carbs, per large roll.
37p ea, i think.

They are heavy, dense and seedy. Triangular and covered in seeds.

They are also, for me, the only 'bread' that seems to work for me. Everything else, even the low carb ones, drive my bg too high.

Thank goodness for sugarfree jelly!!!! I know we are supposed to get over our sweet tooth and learn to love savoury things instead, but sometimes only something sweet and sticky will do!

Breakfast - quarter of a Lidl High Protein Roll with a boiled egg
Lunch - green salad, smoked salmon, flax seed sprinkles
Dinner - beef bolognese with shredded cabbage & leek, jelly & yoghurt

[oldsurveyor]

7am: Sausage egg and cheese biscuit with picante sauce
And 12 cups piping hot black coffee

Noon: 2 chicken legs fried KFC style from the local gas station ( don't laugh, it's a small town general store, excellent food. It's ok you can laugh, I do, but they cook a mean chicken)
And Gatorade (do y'all have Gatorade?)

4:30 p: grilled cheese sandwich
And four or five cups of black coffee

8:00p: grilled chicken breast and a sip of Dr Pepper

I had a grueling day attempting to take on what I could of the duties of mom while she is traveling for business and my regular ranch chores.
I also got two new tires for her car and a front end alignment while she is away. (Surprise for her return) and changed the oil and got the annual safety inspection done.

A friend came over this afternoon and we worked on my bike and got it started finally and I rode it all afternoon running the Wifey's errands. (That lady is a busy beaver)

I have one kid home right now with the other three scattered about, I should probably be staying awake until they all return home.
I better make another pot of coffee.

I'm exhausted.
(And she does it in heels!!!!)
That's just crazy
