I went to buy porridge but instead bought a ham and cheese croissant for breakfast. It was good but very unsatisfying. I should have gone with the porridge. And radishes for breakfast is weird!
At lunch time I couldn’t wait to get in to the market. My sister Abi is coming for lunch tomorrow so I wanted some yummy treats. Plus it is Easter so where better to buy my family something special than Borough Market?
I am not giving away all my menu plans for tomorrow but there will be some Caerphilly
and Comte (yes, the piece the man is holding)
and a small piece of this unusual looking goats cheese.
I love skinny green beans and hope the ones I have sowed are successful but they are months away so I keep buying them when I see them.
I emerged from Konditor & COOK with a massive bag of ……….. surprises 🙂 . And a rare roast beef with horseradish sandwich and a fudge brownie which did not exist long enough for a photo. It was awesome but not as good as Monmouth’s.
When I got home I really needed to eat some fresh fruit and veggies as they had been lacking all day. So I made a smoothie. I am getting really lazy about eating salads but at least having smoothies gets the nutrients in.
Tonights smoothie was some black grapes, 2 clementines, 1/2 a lime, 1/2 an avocado, 1/3 can of pumpkin puree, mineral water and ice cubes. No banana as the grapes were sweet enough.
It tasted very clean and refreshing.
I hit all my deadlines and completed my key tasks at work this week so I can really relax and enjoy the weekend. I have so much lined up and so many wonderful people to catch up with. Not quite all my favourite people but lots of them. I hope you have a really wonderful weekend too.
Across the miles I wish you and the whole darn family and friends a very Happy Easter. May your health be blessed; May your plates be blessed; May the lives of those you care for be blessed on this most sacrifical weekend of ultimate love.
Love,
