Hi all. Just finished catching up on a week’s worth of posts on this thread - you’re a prolific lot.
Too many meals to post a full history. Suffice to say that a large part of the week involved over eating - digestive system is still recovering from excess of flaxseed and nuts caused by over consumption of the double batch of CCBs I made for our Department away day and excess of nuts at the same event.
Friday and yesterday were OMAD and carnivore days - ribeye steak with garlic butter and a fried egg on Friday and beef short rib yesterday. Feeling hungrier today so had a bacon cheeseburger at Five Guys after walking football and dinner was Diet Doctor breakfast sandwich plus a small piece of smoked salmon followed by 65g salted almonds and a small portion of double cream mixed with Lidl cocoa.
@DJC3 - Hotel Chocolat have discontinued the boxes of tea and even the individual sachets are now only available in the branches that have a cafe attached. Showed great restraint today - went in search of tea and discovered their Nutty Yule Log - dark chocolate praline topped with almonds. 21.9g carb per 100g. Optimistically claims to serve 14 (or 1 hungry Londoner). Had it in my hands, but put it back and made a quick exit.
@Robbity didn’t know that Oppo do a raspberry flavour. Used to love raspberry ripple ice cream. Currently have 3 x large pots of chocolate and hazelnut flavour and 1 small tub vanilla languishing in the freezer.
@ianpspurs glad the wedding ring saga ended well. Must have been a worry.
@shelley262 meal with friends sounds great, especially chocolate tasting!
@Brunneria @ianpspurs @ziggy_w thanks for the ox cheek recommendations. Always on the lookout for new cuts of meat to try. Had ox tongue for the first time in years at my Dad’s last weekend and really enjoyed it.
@jayney27 well done on the restraint during your outing with colleague.
