This lunchtime I met with my NWR group in the park. We each brought our own picnic, extra chairs and a folding table. My sandwiches were mature cheddar with sweet pickle. A banana. Orange juice with Soda water.

School dinner in this house! ? Turkey twizzlers, home made chips and salad. DH had his twizzlers in a burger bun. I'm trying to cut down on the carbs, so I didn't bother with the bun.

A niece came for lunch yesterday. We’d been out until very late the day before so in the morning I went to M&S for spicy chicken wings, lemon sole goujons, mini pork pies, a bag of salad a ciabatta, and some strawberries and peaches.

I purposely bought more than needed, so dh and I had the leftovers last night, with jacket potatoes.

And for lunch today I had the leftover leftovers.?
Waste not want not….

Claretjan

Maggiemaybe, wondered why you were on your knees eating lunch until I reread your post and realised I had misunderstood!

grin I am nearly (on my knees) now, Claretjan, as I’ve moved on to moulding fondant Roblox characters, as instructed by the birthday boy. I think they’re supposed to look like him. I flatter myself they will do if viewed by a short-sighted man with a squint on a galloping horse.

A crusty roll (one of those part baked/bake yourself ones) with corned beef and salad.

BigBertha1 Wed 30-Jun-21 14:49:43

Cake now I think.

Leftover chicken and pasta bake reheated. I’d put some sweet corn in it too. Then I had an iced lolly. We are going out for Steak Night this evening.

We had ham and wholegrain mustard sandwich, a few crisps and a lovely crunchy pear. Oh, and two cups of tea.

A tuna, mayo and salad sandwich, made by DH. Eaten on our knees as I’m busy at the kitchen table wrapping Aero bites in coloured fondant icing for DGS2’s birthday cake. As you do. grin

Strawberries and cream again. Picked too many at the PYO.

Nanabanana1 Wed 30-Jun-21 12:49:34

I’ve just had a banana butty ?

Jaxjacky Wed 30-Jun-21 12:37:58

Might have a banana and plain yoghurt about 2, I had weetabix with prunes and blueberries about 10:30.

Calendargirl Wed 30-Jun-21 12:37:46

I boiled an egg, had it in a low gi bread sandwich, with lashings of salad cream!

And a mug of milky coffee.

Teacheranne Wed 30-Jun-21 12:17:10

Nothing as had breakfast too late - more of a brunch fealty of two brioche rolls, a banana and a peach.

BigBertha1 Wed 30-Jun-21 12:15:03

Soup - a bought one from Sainsbury lentil dhal I think and a yogurt or nectarine possibly both had watching a recording of Bargain Hunt. Followed up with a coffee. Chicken salad and melon for dinner.

All this talk of food supplies - what's everyone having for lunch?

I've got a couple of crab cakes defrosting, to have with salad.
