I've been up since 05.00 and now rather peckish, to say the least!

I have a full fridge so just pondering ...

Glass of pineapple juice and vit D tablet. Porridge is in the microwave with raspberries. Green tea to follow.

Already had a mug of tea and a dark chocolate digestive. About to have a sausage butty and a coffee, which will see me through till dinner early evening.

Just a cup of tea.

Alexa tells me it's Hobbit day hmm, so those of you who have eaten, perhaps it's time for a second breakfast. grin

Blackberry and pear muffin that I made yesterday with fruit from the orchard ....DGS thinks I’m the best cook ever ! But I do confess to being a bit rusty and having to double check what I’m doing !

GF Bran flakes and a cup of coffee. Occasionally have toast and marmalade or jam. I sometimes put fruit in the bran flakes.

Paracetamol, ibuprofen, gabapentin, coffee. Recovering from knee replacement ...

Pancakes. Have them most Sundays. If we don’t have pancakes we have a full English.

An omelette with a spring onion, delicious, with a small glass of unsweetened orange juice followed by a cappuccino.

Farawaynanny Sun 22-Sep-19 10:20:42

Porridge (with no sugar, honey, or the like) made with semi skimmed milk. A few blueberries, mixed seeds, and a couple of chopped prunes. Topped with some (home-made) kefir. Plus a small glass of (unsweetened) orange juice, and (de-caff) coffee.

The two croissants I took out of the fridge last night are just waiting for the oven to warm up.

polnan Sun 22-Sep-19 10:53:34

and here`s me on a diet, every 10 mins of every day!

every morning, microwave porridge, apricots, unsulphured, soaked,, delicious,, homemade yoghurt.. sometimes some cooked apple, and a small amount of honey.

now just back from church, 11 a.m. wanting what everyone else having here, but not the couple of pints... thanks

I can't believe that I'm the only one who had a bacon sandwich (Sunday treat)!

21Tinkerbell Sun 22-Sep-19 11:10:40

How I would love a bacon sandwich.
Had porridge with blueberries and 2 mugs of tea.

Hetty58 Sun 22-Sep-19 11:10:53

Cooking second sitting of breakfast now. Banana pancakes (just eggs and bananas) for the kids.

allule Sun 22-Sep-19 11:14:23

I have a half and half breakfast. A mix of orange and grapefruit juice; a mix of Allbran and apricot wheats; half a slice of toast with marmite, and half with marmalade.
Think this is an example of my problems with making decisions!

inishowen Sun 22-Sep-19 11:23:21

Rustic brown bread toasted with butter and jam.

Esspee Sun 22-Sep-19 11:23:39

Sunday is our unhealthy breakfast day. Four slices of unsmoked streaky bacon cooked to a crisp, black pudding and a potato scone on a fresh scotch roll with ketchup.
Made even more delicious because it is an occasional treat.
