They are a really good bunch this year aren't they? Was sorry to see Anita leave, but great to see Steve back on top. Love Giovanna and Saliha too - hope they all do well tonight, I wouldn't like to have to choose.

We want Steve to win, I like Giovanna but a couple of times Saliha has been a bit too cocky like in group round when she said she could 'knock these out in my sleep' to Steve. Saliha WILL win though I think, they love her
despite lack of diversity?

Do you make the chorizo crisps? If so how ?
 
In the interest of science ... BG was 6.5 at lunch, 7.8 before tea and 8.5 three hours after tea so I had a square of 81% chocolate ... 7.2 within 30 minutes!
 
B Smoked salmon & scrambled egg
L Avocado, prawns & green salad
D Eurovision Special: Kalamari olives & St Augur cheese; crevettes* in garlic butter; home-made pepperoni pizza
*Giant shell-on prawns, from Tesco remainders shelf. I didn't know what they were till I got home and opened the packet.

Is it the M&S chorizo crisps? I saw them today beside the various bits of chicken near the deli meats. They have chorizo crisps , pork crisps, bacon crisps, salami crisps. I've had all of them apart from chorizo. I like the bacon , pork is one for lovers of scratching, salami is not crisp apart from the edges but very addictive. ( Just passing the time until son and DIL get home so I can go home to my bed)
 
Despite not being 100% yet BG is stabilising again (maybe I should stay out until 1am more often). Bed in early hours 6.2 FBG 6.6 and pre breakfast was 6.8. Very much in the 'green' all day with readings. And it's Sunday .......prosecco day

B. Stuck to cold stuff - nice on the throat. Lettuce , 1 san manzano tomato, boiled egg, 8 fresh anchovy halves, tablespoon prawns and 4 mozzarella pearls.
L. 2 Walnuts and Tassimo morning coffee and a dash of cream
D. Usual campari and soda and a wee prosecco.
Hoi sin duck with spring onion and cucumber but no pancakes for me
Paprika beef with mushrooms and red pepper. Steamed broccoli and cauliflower rice. Pad Thai noodles for the carbers.
Lemon meringue pie for the carbers I'll have 2 strawberries with some cream (Well they are the M&S king strawberries - have you seen the size of those things!)
Boys were exceptionally good last night. Allowed them to stay up a bit later but they went off to bed when told and no nonsense).
 
Exercise filled weekend. 17,600 steps yesterday and 25,200 today, including regular game of walking football.

Pre-breakfast - tried 1 square of Lindt 90% to see if it would bring blood sugar level down. Didn't work and New tub of strips seems to be running about 1 mmol higher than normal.

Breakfast - crustless quiche

Lunch - tuna mayo with rocket and baby plum tomatoes

Dinner - lemon sole fillet fried in butter with a squeeze of lemon juice; sautéed courgette and onion; 1 square of Lindt 90%
 
Cheese omelette and mushrooms

Mug of Bovril (my appetite seems to have dropped alarmingly - not complaining but surprised)

Five frikadella meatballs with broccoli and cauliflower with melted butter on top

May have a 1/2 Lidl roll with some cheese for supper
