What was your fasting blood glucose? (full on chat)

I like that detail in the bottom half @dunelm

Have a good day
 
I find cashews help lower my blood sugars, in small quantities @Krystyna23040
 
Back in my pen; having a wee gin and diet tonic.

The bill for dinner is thankfully not in USD, GBP, EUR, CAD nor any major currency ...phew...

After the nitty gritty and signatures still wet on paperwork always nice to chill...

Empty roads on way back - and as I am starting to do that famous chest nod, bed and Mister Sandman is not so far away.

Have a fabudozzi Friday afternoon, eve and night and I'll chime in tomorrow with the damage on FBG after tonight's excesses around the dinner table.
 
@gennepher it looks very much as though they help lower my blood sugars in small quantities also. Although it is a shame that they were on the banned list for 4 years - it is lovely now that I can eat them again. A real treat.
I love the Lidl cashew nuts. I actually bought 4 packets this morning @Krystyna23040

So, it was funny you mentioning them just now.
 
Oh no - I wish you hadn't posted this. I absolutely love nut butters and find it very hard to limit them to a teaspoon at a time.

Have googled Funky Nut Cashew Butter and it looks highly likely that I will be buying some very soon.
Apparently I can look like Coco the Clown as it covers my chin and lips due to my inability to look sophisticated - apparently like that scene in the movie Chocolat where the puritanical mayor is found in the window of the chocolate shop...

 
So true for me yesterday - so interview went well I think - he said if I had any other questions just to e-mail him and asked if I had any holidays booked (I wish) also replied great answers to a couple of questions - so sounds like he was interested maybe? he said it would probably be end of next week before he got back to me - so sounds like he has a lot more to interview - so I won't hold my breath ...
 
Hope it all works in your favour.
 
good evening all

4.3 this morning

A cold but sometimes sunny day today, made for nice clouds
All tablets today Mum has picked up her prescription tablets and Katy's worm and flea tablets and mr gee got more vitamin D and Magnesium and dropped off his prescription

Hope your day is treating you well

@gennepher - interesting night study with that scarlet moon, I like how it reflects in the waterfall and subtly warms the night sky

@BRSBRI - congratulations on a successful outcome, but I don't even want to think about what that amount translates to
Bartoli - 'Sposa son disprezzata'

@dunelm - even if you think you overworked it a bit you've produced a pleasing and highly textural painting today and the trees are lovely

@Muddy Cyclist - looking forward to your next ensemble release

@jjraak - sounds as if your hard work is paying off in good progress

@Krystyna23040 - cashew nuts are a favourite with mr gee too, we got a special offer in Home Bargains this week, three x 150g bags for £3.50

art bit - tried something a bit different

here is my go at an image seen on Pinterest (the reference I put down as the artist I now think may be the place name - Hoi Quan), it's turned out a bit flat and muddy for my liking

Cream cakes, which I may have one on my birthday I add in my defence, are a
real problem, I seem to share the cream between my mouth and my face.

This last week hundreds of Whooper Swans have been moving north out of England into Scotland ready to fly back to Iceland, some moving in the night.
I only hope they miss the ranks of wind farms across their path as the go north through the Borders.

@lindisfel Have you heard about the new bladeless wind turbines? MrSlim was saying they could be fitted to lamposts.

Have a real cream cake problem - MrSlim keeps buying them. Sometimes don't know whether to cheer or groan.

Congratulations on the done deal. Applause and champagne. Fall into bed and relax, job done. Well done you.
 
Please explain why Brazil nuts are sold in 500g packets, if over consumption (more than two or three) is dangerous. Surely if this is the case, brazil nuts would be sold in pairs - with a health warning and shops prohibited from selling more than one packet to anyone.
By the way, my higher than average FBG yesterday was caused by dark chocolate coated Brazil's. 150g pack
