Breakfast was going to be some lamb's liver pate that I found in the freezer, plus a few crackers, but it tasted a bit odd, so it went into the bin and I had some soft cheese with the crackers instead. Tea. It wasn't very satisfying and I'm hungry now. 2nd meal will be a little bit of chicken...

The darned thing will have to be returned. EDIT: Today's package from Amazon will have to be returned as well. It was a plant stand which looked strong enough to hold quite a few pots, in the picture, but in fact is pretty flimsy and has instructions with it which refer to bits that are not...

Hope all goes as you want it to at the Cataract clinic and that our day goes as well as you anticipated.

Hug for JKP. Hope the swollen lips don't make enjoying that meal difficult.

6.6 at 03.15 today. Still in the 6's almost 4 hours later but I've only had one cup of tea so far with another to hand as I write. That might change things. Our new router arrived in the post yesterday and I was astonished to see that it was a pre-used one. Checking back with Amazon I saw...

So glad to hear that your son is doing well enough to leave hospital. It will take time for him to adjust to the new lifestyle, but I'm sure he will manage it. Have a good journey back to France with Mr Slim and back to working on the house.

BG just as I went to bed at 00.36 last night was dropping and at 4.5. Not a good idea to go to bed with that reading so I had my emergency can of sweetened coffee. Nevertheless, it dropped a few minutes later to 3.7. Another 15 minutes though, and it was back to 5.9, so I went to sleep. Woke...

Breakfast: 3 egg omelette with some frozen mixed veg mixed in. Tea. 2nd meal will be cabbage with bacon and roast pork.

https://costalwildflowers.wordpress.com/about/salt-marsh-lamb/ Dungeness in Kent produces good saltmarsh lamb - a bit overshadowed these days by proximity to the nuclear power station which, of course, has no effect on the lamb...

9.4 at 04.35 today. I, of course, thought it was still 3.35. Well - to me it was because it was only 23/4 hours after I got to bed on the old time. Not that it made much difference anyway, I still went back to sleep in the chair under the influence of my chosen recreational drug! It did drop...

Breakfast: smashed avocado with Jacob's crackers. Tea. 2nd meal will be smoked mackerel salad. Made 2 lots of soup yesterday for the freezer but there are still lots of chopped leeks to use so I'll make a leek and potato soup to put in the freezer as well. - Freezing should reduce the impact...

Breakfast: chicken and leek soup - made yesterday with about a litre left to go in the freezer. (Cullen Skink currently being made - had to wait for fish stock yesterday so didn't get it done until this morning). 2nd meal will be a mixed vegetable curry with chickpea "rice". Sitting at the...

On my third cup of tea so far. FBG (03.20) was 7.9. Cold again today, still in 3 layers, with a 4th standing by. It's bright and sunny at the moment though, if a bit on the breezy side. Yesterday brought hail, sleet and snow but it didn't lay, I'm glad to say. Will today bring a heatwave...

5.8 at 03.15 today. One cup of tea later it was 5.5. Had very low carb breakfast and no insulin so we'll see how that works out. Bright sunshine out there but it's still cold.

Breakfast: lettuce wrapped around ham and cottage cheese. Tea. 2nd meal will be salmon baked in foil with some mixed veg and lemon slices. Have to make a couple of pots of soup for the freezer: chicken and leek for one and Cullen Skink for another. They are both easy enough to make as long as...
