Breakfast

Hello,

I've been trying out a high protein "way of eating" this week, haven't had a slice of bread since last week, but not missing it much.  Have had the pleasure of a Ryvita with Almond butter and no sugar cherry jam - that was interesting!

If its a very special Saturday then I have a bacon sandwich on white bread - I'm sorry but if you are going to have a bacon sandwich, have a proper one and don't insult the bacon by using brown bread.  You don't need to go crazy and put butter on white bread with bacon - it doesn't need it!  Just because you're eating a few slices of bacon and two slices of white bread, you don't have to lose the plot completely! 

I can even seem to enjoy my tea with no sugar when it is accompanied by a bacon sandwich - mind over matter!

Anyway back to the reason this blog is called "Breakfast", you won't believe what I had - and I enjoyed it.  I had tinned salmon rolled up in organic lettuce leaves with a little olive oil drizzled over them.  This is not something I could face at 7.30 but having got up at a decent time and worked up a bit of an appetite, in the sunshine it went down a treat.

The obvious other high protein breakfast is bacon, egg and tomatoes - but you know that don't you?  Cut the fat off the bacon before you cook it, even better, buy bacon medallions - the fat is already removed, thus avoiding temptation.   Turkey rashers aren't THAT bad (who am I kidding!!)

I shall keep you updated on my new breakfast experiences!

Keep happy and fit!

I love poppies, I have them on my curtains and on my rug, so take a look at these lovelies - by kind permission of the old man and lady at Shinglesea in Winchelsea!

Rye, Sussex Go to Salts Farm Shop,

Hi,

Just had a brillient, if somewhat knackering weekend at Camber. 

Salts Farm Shop in Rye Sussex  is a lovely farm shop with a little coffee area.  Judith the owner is lovely, she made me smell the strawberries!  She is addicted to jelly babies as well - aren't we all?

They do their own sausages and meat cuts, the sausages are excellent.
