Yes me too. Black farmers from most supermarkets are 97% meat and don't raise me at all. Also tinned tomatoes you have to be careful of
Ho yes indeed.. my T2 butcher does the same. Even makes gluten free scotch eggsWell, I was a 4.2 this morning, so right in my personal range. It’s a smidge up on recent times, but I’m viewing that positively (bizarrely!), in that I didn’t get up for an hour or so after waking, as Mr B was still pushing out the zzzzzzzs, and he does have both tiredness after a trying time and jetlag to contend with. I did my usual, in those circumstances, of watching breakfast news on my phone, with earplugs, and waited until he roused a bit before producing copious cups of tea. I have also had a couple of higher carb dinners since he came back. Nothing incredible, but I just realised I had been (even) lower carbing since I got home on my own. To be honest, sometimes it’s just a bit of a faff to cook a starch in the quantities I might fancy, so I wouldn’t bother.
Moving forward, we have a load of home jobs to get through in the coming week, and unfortunately, Mr B also has a funeral to attend. The deceased isn’t someone I ever met, so I’ll stay at home whilst he heads south.
This afternoon we’re off to raid the local farm shop, which he loves. It’s the most amazing meat, which they butcher and prepare in front of you. Obviously, they don’t do that with their sausages, but their Gluten Free versions seem absolutely fine for me. But, everything else, including minced beef is prepared in clear sight. So, the freezer will be crammed within an inch of it’s life this afternoon. It might be more expensive than the supermarkets, but it is actually worth it, in my view. I’m both a believer in supporting local businesses, and having knowledge of our food sources, where it is practical.
So, playmates. Have a great Friday. It’s the weekend, and life could be so much worse.
Hello very oneYes me too. Black farmers from most supermarkets are 97% meat and don't raise me at all. Also tinned tomatoes you have to be careful of
Hope you like them Bluetit- they are one of my favorites! Either with mushrooms, egg etc or greens and carrots- but, my current "fad" is the have them with creamy coleslaw (full fat 6gm per 100gm ; ) ), I'm loving that at the moment!!I've just bought some of those sausages. I'll give them a try tomorrow. I'm not a sausage lover to be honest, but I need some extra calories. I lost another pound today and am under 9 stone for the first time in 30 years. I need to put some back on.
One of my favorites too alliebee, another item I couldn't have done as well without! See below what I just told Bluetit about my current fad !!Yes me too. Black farmers from most supermarkets are 97% meat and don't raise me at all. Also tinned tomatoes you have to be careful of
Coleslaw works for me. Yummy.Hope you like them Bluetit- they are one of my favorites! Either with mushrooms, egg etc or greens and carrots- but, my current "fad" is the have them with creamy coleslaw (full fat 6gm per 100gm ; ) ), I'm loving that at the moment!!
I also thought it was out at first alliebee- now I buy it every week, Morrison's "best" luxury one! Here I was thinking my sausage coleslaw combo was unique!!Do you know I think I had completely forgotten about coleslaw. I love it but thought it was out when I was a newbie. How lovely you reminded me...sausages and colewslaw a match made in foodie heaven
