Hi all. A lot of catching up to do (again).
@BibaBee very good news on your husband’s eye treatment.
@Chook very sad story about your husband’s colleague. But good news about the Brie.
@Brunneria your reports on the Dr Almond bread are making me reconsider my decision to ditch bread substitutes.
@shelley262 in my experience the orange and cocoa nib Montezumas is very over-eatable.
@zauberflote love the EWIWWIW acronym. I had one of those days on Tuesday, or perhaps more accurately EFTMAFTO (eat far too much and far too often) -
@maglil55 my food app was doing the opposite of yours when you don’t give it enough calories!
So far as the food goes, yesterday was a contrast to Tuesday’s over indulgence. A day of work meetings meant no break for lunch and an OMAD day. Went to Shake Shack for a bunless double bacon cheeseburger with mayonnaise and onion. Dessert of extra thick double cream on return to base.
@BibaBee found the Dash drinks on sale in a Nordic cafe near Cannon Street and tried the raspberry one. Very good and not at all sweet.
Today was breakfast of almond butter and extra thick double cream, lunch of M&S Serrano ham and manchego cheese rollitos and dinner at Nando’s. Plain leg, 3 plain wings and a side of grilled halloumi. Took some butter to melt on the chicken. Dessert was a new discovery from Waitrose (see pic) which has very similar carb count to Lindt 90% (14.7g/100g vs 14 for the Lindt). Tried the pineapple and grapefruit Aqua Libre. Not as good as the Raspberry and Apple, which is very good.
Meanwhile back at the hotel we have the case of the missing glass. As I prefer long, cold drinks, I brought my own large glass for the hotel stay. Have been keeping it in the fridge but must have forgotten this morning as when I got back tonight it had vanished. Reception are on the case and in the meantime I’m holding a pint glass from the bar hostage.
Edited to correct typo.
