it's the hands that are most difficult to keep warm I find
Good Morning, seems so dark today, but sun promised and granddaughter day so off out doing silly stuff.
A 5.6 for me this morning.
@gennepher another early painting success, agree with you about paper size and acrylics, you did well to keep your left over acrylics useable mine always harden.
So off to prepare for youngest family members arrival, 4 years and a bundle of inquisitiveness, questions, energy and imagination.
Use and Drain your day of every possible minute it offers you.
Good grief! Last night my omelette consisted of two chopped portebello mushrooms fired in butter and three eggs. I think I am a glutton. I always think if its lc ingredients I can have a generous portion but I may have to rethink my portions but I am not a fan of weighing everything. Tou are very brave.Anyone else followed a DD meal plan and found the weights impossible to match?
Day 1 breakfast; No egg, rashers of bacon or mushroom we had were that small. 14 gms cheese is not much. Looks like this will be fun and very wasteful of food. Fresh veg just not practical
Mushroom Omelette
Ingredients
Also, what is 1/8 of a tomato (comes later today)? 2 months personalised meal plans in attempt to improve bg control. Of course I will lose weight eating fresh air. Struggled at meal 1 - would have been better just skipping breakfast as per Broke my vow to post less already
- 1/2 tbsp Butter (7g)
- 1/4 cup, pieces or slices Mushrooms (18g) (.7)
- 1 Egg (50g) (.8)
- 1 egg white (separated from yolk) Egg White (40g) (.45)
- 1/2 slice Cheddar Cheese (14g)
- 2 strip Bacon (24g) (1.2)
A two egg omelette with one mushroom and a squeeze of cheeze would have sufficed I would thinkAnyone else followed a DD meal plan and found the weights impossible to match?

Fbg 6.7 at 4 am.
Done my daily painting challenge to myself.
View attachment 37733
3 shaving brushes, one rigger brush, and one fan brush used to paint this.
Acrylic paints, but they were all left overs when I squeezed too much paint out (they were still usable a few days later) and I put them in a sealed container. So this was odds and ends of left over paints.
Again like yesterday on an A4 pad, but I still find it a small size for acrylics and freedom of expression. A4 would be fine for watercolours I think.
I am back in bed with cat. It is too flipping cold today. So warming up and a nap before I embrace the day again....
Hugs for the unexpected FBG and the broken elevator and the annoying workmen!
Oh yes I am on sofa under a rug with a very warm sleeping Daisy next to me and the soft snores of Bobs from her basket and gazing out at the fading light between the Pines.Contentment is sitting on the sofa playing Outspell on your computer while your real live laptop snores in your lap.
