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

Gruss Gott - not in Bavaria at present but it just sprang into consciousness and here we are, Saturday - a day of promises, prospects and for the most part avoiding any idea of being pointlessly dragged round overcrowded and badly laid out shops, cooing at stuff that a moment ago did not for you exist, has no practical use in anyone’s life and will probably not last the week - and on, and on.

The wonder wheel of waggery and skylarking whispered 5.2 on the japeometer this am.

All this talk about button down collars and loops in the 1960’s is making me thirsty so off to make koffy.
Have a great day if you can.

Yesterday I had 120g of protein more than double what I usually eat and always - with no exceptions over the last 3 years - it raises my fbs. Except this morning! Fbs 5.0 - which is brilliant.

Just had my Portobello mushrooms and stilton and am relaxing with coffee before I start on the bacon and eggs and sausage and more mushrooms.
 

Sounds like a perfect day. Nice start too,with good fbg - the fish influence again.
 

Thanks for the link. We have a list of the foods in the kitchen but the menu ideas are very useful - we have no real structure at the moment, just last minute decisions and I don’t like that so it will be very useful.
Have fun choosing carpets, I’m impressed you are going along - the move is certainly becoming reality for you now. Hope it goes smoothly.
 
Happy to be of any small help knowing first hand how horrible the problems can be. Left all alone goodness knows what horror show Julie would select - maybe even patterns Also meeting No 1 son and grandson who want to see the new house. Grandson needs to know where the Troll will be on our walks when we move or else we can't move. Key factor in choosing which house to buy but all sorted. Troll knows we are moving and happy he will still be fed sweets under his new bridge. Thetford chase is ideal for Trolls and other creatures that big brother/cousin can explain to the gals.

I love the area around the British Museum...many years ago I worked at a publishing company on the same street & when we skipped school that was where we headed for...spent the days there & in the Science museum...happy days.
I also absolutely love the area around the British Museum. I treat myself to a luxury stay in a lovely boutique hotel next to museum and always arrive the day before my course so I can visit all the current exhibitions. So my visits to London are part work and part pleasure.
 
Despite the ravages of the London traffic & the high volume of pedestrians Bloomsbury has an air of gentility about it.. I drive through there often en route to work
You are right - it does have an air of gentility. I stay at The Montague on the Gardens and my daughter says that it makes her feel that she is in a Miss Marple movie.

From the moment you arrive at the entrance and they carry your case into the hotel you feel absolutely pampered and looked after.

I feel that one of the perks of still running my little business well after retirement age is that I can be absolutely extravagent occasionally.
 

Eating Chinese food, and Indian is a minefield. It varies so much between different places - a safe meal in one will send bg sky high in another. Hope you enjoyed it though. I haven’t dared try since starting this woe.
 

So glad there is room for the Troll in your new place, it would be sad to have to leave those stories and memories behind. I can remember you posting ages ago about the troll under the bridge.
 

Yes I agree about the area and Miss Marple - I think it was At Bertram’s Hotel which always reminds me of it. I’m going to look up the Montague
 

Gruss Gott aus Bayern!

Menu just became whole lot harder. Chickens had, 1 by 1, begun roosting in trees and refused to go in to secure coop. 1 left so sourcing vaguely similar eggs an issue now. Reports say Borisa the hen said no more vassalge and a fox called Donald was eagerly waiting to devour them. It couldn't be, could it?
