I couldn’t resist it today – had to have a Monmouth flat white and there was hardly any queue – surely an omen to get stuck in 🙂

Then off to Le Pain Quotidien for a yogurt granola parfait to take out,

with lots of delicious fruit on top.

I have been thinking about how to incorporate exercise in to my day for ages and had the idea of walking in a circuit, left out of my office, over Southwark Bridge, right along the North Bank, South over London Bridge and back to the office.  It has rained or I have been too busy.  But today I did it and it was great.  It took me 25 minutes and that included time to buy lunch.  I will be doing this regularly and it felt great to be outside in the sunshine, striding over the bridges and enjoying the views.

For supper I made a stir fry using up the last of the picnic couscous and loads of fresh veggies.

In my stir fry went:

1 tbsp oil
1 tbsp Shoyu/Soy Sauce
1 chunk of ginger, grated
1 leek
1 small onion
1 green pepper
2 large chestnut mushrooms
Bean sprouts
Baby sweetcorn
Left over couscous with vegetables
1 tbsp oil
1 tbsp peanut butter

I fried all the veggies in oil and shoyu and  then added the peanut butter which I loosened with 1 tbsp sesame oil.

It was delicious and I made enough for 2 so James could enjoy some too.

Lunch was a poor diet choice but the rest was good and I am so pleased I have started walking again.
