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

I have a full fridge so just pondering ...

Home made granola with blueberries

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

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

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

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

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 !

Strawberries then one Weetabix then two oat cakes with a cup of coffee.

M0nica Sun 22-Sept-19 08:55:05

oh, and two paracetamol and codeine and a stiff coffee because I woke up with mild migraine this morning

...and before anyone posts to warn me I know paracetamol and codeine is an opiod and addictive, but I have been taking a couple about once a month for over 30 years, without ever feeling a need to take them more frequently or other than for migraine - they are the only things that control mine.

M0nica Sun 22-Sept-19 08:51:24

2 marmite rice cakes, spread with quark and topped with sliced cucumber, fruit juice and a large mug of Lift (instant lemon tea)

Maggiemaybe Sun 22-Sept-19 08:50:58

Today I had a bowl of fruit, followed by a full English, toast and butter, a tiny pain au chocolate and a slice of cheese. Tomato juice and tea. I’m not at home, who’d have guessed it? smile
