Thank you @gennepher - yes, must listen to the brush.Like you @dunelm I never change some clocks, potting shed and garage clocks always stay the same.
Analogue is easiest to change, the others are objects of mystery...
I have some dried bonito flakes (got them from Amazon end of last year), but I have never used them. Would they go in miso soup?
An effective waterfall.
It is hard when a brush says 'hey I am holding extra water unbeknownst to you'...
That is really interesting because it looks like cashews later on in the day work better for me. Of course I will need to do lots and lots more testing before I am sure of this. Must remember to buy more cashews this week. In the interest of scientific research of course.I probably have about 10 of those half cashews @Krystyna23040
They lower my blood sugars in a morning if it is before I have eaten anything at all.
I did read a handful would lower them early evening, BUT that did not work at all for me, it raised my blood sugars then.
So, cashews are effective for me early in the day.
So to put in context.
I do keep slightly different hours to most of you. I am usually awake at 3am. Coffee and tea are my beverages. Maybe chicory coffee at that time of day. The cashews might be about 6 am.
What I call breakfast is probably what you would call lunch/late lunch, because that can happen either at 9 or 10 or 11 or 12 noon, or even 1pm and depends when I feel like it.
Generally I have one meal a day.
I may or may not have the cashews early on, it's just what I feel like.
If my breakfast is early, early for me being 9am, then I might have some cottage cheese at noonish.
This is all if I am being 'good'.
Like anyone I have my naughty days...maybe a cream cake or two, but only from one bakery where those cakes are heaven...
Thank you for your encouraging words @Muddy CyclistYou always manage to create such scale with your minimal ink paintings. The too wet brush strokes could easily be seen as distant trees just visible above the trees, I am always impressed with the brushwork you show us.
Clocks, we have too many old wooden clocks to sort, thank goodness all the chimes are unwound or it could become a real nightmare.
Thanks @dunelmThank you @gennepher - yes, must listen to the brush.
You can make a nice dashi with dried kelp and dried bonito flakes and then add some miso and veg - here is the site that I get recipes to make Japanese meals: https://www.justonecookbook.com/homemade-miso-soup/
Obviously a lot more testing is needed to check out those cashew nuts @Krystyna23040That is really interesting because it looks like cashews later on in the day work better for me. Of course I will need to do lots and lots more testing before I am sure of this. Must remember to buy more cashews this week. In the interest of scientific research of course.
I have kept to about 5 cashews each test as I am a little worried about the high carbs they contain - even if it is in the form of resistant starch.
Aren't people with medical needs excused strict fasting? Your concern echoes an idea I had about work and T2 management in general. I would never have managed this while working. Massive respect to all those who pull that off even without the complications of shifts and COVID.I'm curious how shift workers such as police, caring professionals and others who have developed diabetes during the course of their employment cope with condition management...Night shifts, upsetting the natural circadian body rhythm, eating at odd hours and so forth.
I've found it difficult enough so heaven knows how those guys manage.
As an aside, with Ramadan now approaching, those of the Islamic faith with diabetes, especially T1, must find it very difficult too given the regime for the month they must follow.
I think they are, but some according to my great DSN at the practice insist and cause all sorts of complications...Aren't people with medical needs excused strict fasting?

Yes @gennepher I will take your advice and buy more cashews to ensure that my research is thorough and accurate.Obviously a lot more testing is needed to check out those cashew nuts @Krystyna23040
Make sure you buy plenty more this coming week to enable you do your research properly...
Well everyone up in Blighty, do have the most wonderful day.
Sid the Stinger is unscratched and MrsBRS' Formentor arriving Tuesday has been named Felix, apparently.
Asked if I'm being missed and the answer: "it's certainly less chaotic". Hmmm
Particularly difficult for Inuit Muslims with a long night and day!I'm curious how shift workers such as police, caring professionals and others who have developed diabetes during the course of their employment cope with condition management...Night shifts, upsetting the natural circadian body rhythm, eating at odd hours and so forth.

That is interesting. I have been trialling 10g but today I am testing 20g cashews with 20g stilton for lunch. Sounds a strange combination but was rather delicious.20 gms cashews last night - flat line on Swipey.
@jjraak thanks for the hug mate but not needed. We are made uniquely and for a purpose, IMHO. My best guess is without the traits revealed in that post I wouldn't be me and even less useful. Certainly not the teacher or batsman I was. Sometimes caused me problems but according to people I meet since retiring from both they appreciated and understood how I rolled even when they found it hard to deal with.
...I haven't developed any interest in or attachment to this area so staying on our property is a doddle - nowhere I want to go.
Shopping as a local...photos with a very old backup bashed and battered phone as I forgot to recharge the prototype!
Somethings in the food department aren't for the faint hearted...but it's not Wuhan, that's for SURE! Super clean too.
At 730pm I am getting a huge bowl of spicy duck soup, greens, cabbage and other bits...sitting at a metal table in the damp open, with a long cool drink...then back to the room to put my feet upAbout a 25 minute walk...
