"What have you eaten" Parallel Chat

Lunch was tomato and carrot soup, a mini pork pie (I had a coupon for 15% off, and then there was a pack of 6 reduced for quick sale at 20% off, and Lidl gives you both discounts), Greek salad, and a little banana ice-cream with cream. Supper has just been a take on pasta e fagioli with bacon, followed by kefir yoghurt with, I hope, the end of the stewed plums (I didn't dish them out!), and I think I'll have a square of dark chocolate in a bit. Ooh, copying and pasting the photo worked!!!

Yesterday was a lazy Sunday binge watching Netflix stuff. Today usual shop at Tesco then coffee at the local garden centre. Hubby picked up his usual scone with clotted cream and jam, we ordered the coffees and the cashier pointed out it was two scones for the price of one just now. In a weak moment we accepted and I had a whole scone, rather than just a slice off hubby’s! :banghead: Blood sugar topped out just short of 8 which was a relief but has been hovering around 6 since which is high for me. I’m a bit anxious about my spine MRI results which are now marked on line as pending til Wednesday, so fingers crossed I can read them then.
Dinner tonight I kept pretty low carb in view of my scone transgression! Bacon muffins with carrots and runner beans.

Fingers crossed for your spine mri results that you can read them in Wednesday and that they are helpful.

Here's hoping that your MRI result is good news.
 
I ended up with a very quick dish of noodles (quick cook ones) with refried onions and an egg stirred through. Stomach still didn't think it was enough, but I did, so that's where I left it.
 
Best wishes to all those going for tests or waiting results.

Bit subdued here, a friend/neighbour is passing away in the local hospice. Wasn't expected to get to the weekend but she is still with us. Heartbreaking, especially for the family who chose to spend her last night with her, and who have now been there 4 nights sleeping on the floor.

Took my 90 year old to lay flowers on her husbands memorial, except when we got there so many autumn leaves on the ground that we couldn't his plaque for ages. Did find it eventually, phew!

Scrambled eggs with a little ham and cheese for lunch (skip breakfast on Mondays) but did share a large scone after our flower laying expedition.

Dinner was 3 90% sausages with buttered leeks and carrots
