@Antje77 I feel for you with the coffee disaster. I get very upset if I can’t start the day with a good coffee. Glad you made it safely home, what a lovely neighbour!

Too tired and busy winding down from holidays to cook, so my main meal was a slice of LC bread with butter and marmite, two rashers of English bacon that still looked and smelled good after traveling with me for almost a week, and two very small chicken eggs I found in my garden today. :)

Haven't been for groceries yet since coming back from holidays, but I still had some leftover cheese and I found 4 onions in my kitchen.
This called for onion soup!
The luxury version too, usually it's a vegetarian soup with grated cheese for protein, but I'd brought bacon from England so I added two rashers of that as well. :hungry:

I didn't really have time for lunch today, so I just had some cashews and a packet of spicy jalapeno pork scratchings. I didn't have a lot in for dinner, so I chopped up the last of the bacon, roughly scrambled a few eggs, and fried it all up with some garden peas and half a pouch of rice (~30g carbs).
