Today, for lunch, I had Welsh lamb chops, with starch-resistant mash, and miniature cabbages (Brussels sprouts), with mint and a mint gravy. And it was lamb-tastic.

No, but because of their reputation from years ago, I thought I'd rename them for those in fear of their reputation. I do like them, though, @LivingLightly.

So do I @IanBish. One of my favourite vegetables. I don't enjoy picking them after a shower though. All the cold rain water runs down your sleeves.

Morning all. Yesterday I made soup out of all the veg I had in the fridge. There is some left for today. I also had some fried eggs on one slice of 50/50 small loaf. Will probably have the same today. I did have a small packet of Mini Cheddars as well. Have a good day all.

Lovely sunny day. I had three meals today:
Breakfast small hm kefir then fried one slice of bacon and egg with one slice of LC toast before heading out to a garden centre.
Lunch small amount of smoked salmon with kimchi then a couple of strawberries with hm yoghurt
Dinner LC pizza and salad

Pudding LC chocolate brownie.
I always try to walk in the evening after my meal it seems to help my blood sugar levels lower. For months this has been mainly indoors while listening to a podcast but tonight it will definitely be outdoors and include some more gardening too. I love my Bluetooth ear buds for listening to podcasts.

[philosophy47]

Regrettably, I loathe the taste of sardines, even disguised in fish cakes. However you have inspired me to try again with extra mature Cheddar grated, and maybe some other strong-tasting spice. (Suggestions?)

Chilli.
