"What have you eaten" Parallel Chat

Just removed a post that I'd put in the wrong thread. Here, I should have reported:

Breakfast: pre-cooked and chilled oats with some freeze dried raspberry and milk. Still hungry so may have to have something else before I go out.

2nd meal: If Neil can get me some chicken thighs, it will be roast chicken and vegetables. If not, it will probably be pork sausages but I'd rather not have sausages again this week.

Cakes all baked and ready for frosting tomorrow morning. Just want to experiment with some oat muffins for the oat lady. Might make some oatcakes for her as well - she has them quite often and I know she enjoys them.

Another lovely sunny and productive day. Got shed sorted - over winter stuff tends to get dumped in there for a tip trip which of course didn't happen. So today got the rubbish to the tip and recycling centre. We can now get into our shed!
Also sowed all 10 different types of tomato seeds from my Mothers day mixed pack - will be interesting to see how many germinate. Hoping to sow Cosmos , peas and bean seeds tomorrow. I've got some mini propagators another gift so am trying to sow in all 10 propagators which will all live on our sunny conservatory windowsills.

I'm definitely on the mend, but as soon as I tried to do anything the aches came back and I felt poorly again, so I just got a couple of loads of washing done and then rested up. I sat outside for a bit too!

My appetite hasn't come back but I have had my chicken and vegetables for tea at the right time today, and didn't need to go and sleep in the afternoon so hopefully tomorrow will be even better.

Edit: the vegetables I'm using are the red russian kale and sprouting broccoli from my garden with a few of last summer's runner beans from the freezer.

Pleased that you are hopeful of being on the .mend. Winner for your home grown veggies.
 
First meal of the day was a Panda flour puffet eaten warm, sliced in half, with butter and two different very good cheeses my aunt gifted me as a birthday present. So birthday present on top of birthday present, thanks to @shelley262 for the Panda flour!
The puffets tasted very good, even if they didn't hit that bread spot, but I suppose only bread will hit that spot.
I made two puffets (1/3 of the recipe) to try it out and not waste precious flour. I left the second puffet for tonight, wanting to know how they are when eaten cold.
Evening meal was the second puffet sliced in half with celeriac mayo (grated raw celeriac, mayo, salt, pepper and this time some lemon juice and zest because I had half of an old and sorry looking lemon laying around). Very good combination with the puffets, and I had it with the last spicy filled peppers and olives I found forgotten in the fridge. :)

For tomorrow I want to use the Panda garlic and cheese protein thing recipe as a base for a cheese and onion bread, which I think will taste absolutely amazing. :hungry:

Scrolling through Facebook I encountered this song, which made me think of all you gardeners, @jpscloud and @shelley262 .

 
Vegetable secrets definitely gave me a chuckle!
Pleased puffets worked out. I agree they are not the same as bread - I find toasting them improves them for me. I'm just really happy to have something bread like that doesn't put up my blood sugars.

I love it :joyful:

And the celeriac mayo looks amazing, I might have to make some!

I love Jesse Welles for being one of our currently very much needed protest singers, but combining it with little songs like this. :)

And yes, try the celeriac mayo! Easy, cheap, and I always got it for breakfast with my grandmother as a child which is another reason to love it.
