@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. :)

Marmite And Bacon !!!! You're turning into a Brit :D :D
 
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:

Sharing yesterday's food as extra special: Brunch 1 avocado, Dinner: usual small container of mixed nuts, this time brazils, hazelnuts, walnuts and almonds, then slow-roast beef small-rib in Guinness and butter with sweet chestnuts (therefore not keto but still low carb) mushrooms, garlic, dash of Lee & Perrins, cabbage, cauliflower and tenderstem broccoli. Today I will braise the bone slowly as a base for lumpy soup. Oh my it was good. Small but exquisite glass of red wine afterwards.
