Eating on Sunday

I made this. French toast with a banana and blueberry topping. I made the topping with honey, cinnamon and sherry.

Chinese tea

Then ice cream. This ice cream was a failure in the paddle pop machine (too soft, sticks pulled out) so I had to dig it all out with a spoon.

Lunch - I made this too. Lamb chops, capsicum and broccoli stir fried in the juices, and a mash of sweet potato, onion and garlic.

These were interesting. They have a hazelnut paste inside.

Phil's idea to have ice cream...

Went to the folks house for dinner. We had oysters natural and kilpatrick to start, with roast veg.

Then cold roast pork with crackling.

Stir fried mushrooms and beans.

Dessert was some kind of hazelnut and coconut slice.

And mango and pawpaw. The pawpaw was home grown.

Saturday!!!

Breakfast commences with chinese tea, christmas pudding (yes, already) followed by french toast with raspberry and banana topping. I made it with honey and cinnamon and wine.

Oh, a light snack of chocolate.

When Phil got home I had just finished making pasta. Lucky timing!

Polished off the leftover macarons.

We tried to make chocolate paddle pops but they had a freezing issue. So no ice cream yet.

Ate more bananas. 

Sunflower seeds. 

Dinner, looks appealing right? Well, it was ok. I stir fried a bunch of old vegs in the fridge and a lamb chop. Trying to use up all the veg we have.

Dessert was poached nectarines and peaches, also a week old, in a sherry, butter, cinnamon and nutmeg sauce and burnt fig ice cream by Maggie Beer.

Friday fare part 1

Ok, not such a good breakfast - instant coffee, chocolate and Twisties???

But I did have yoghurt later, does that count? And a cup of tea.

My lunch, left overs of the salty chicken rice Phil made.

Afternoon snack of brownies.

Thursday 15 Nov

This was breakfast. All I had before I left home was a glass of water. This was about 10am - strawberry cheesecake and a lemon Capi.

We had stopped by the chocolate store next to the cafe (Cafe Amadeus) and we both got a sample each. I got the Lavendar dark chocolate.

I was so parched that I had to make a stop for the Mango and Pineapple smoothie from Maccas. We were heading on foot to the other side of town to see an art show.

This was our $6 lunch at Parliament House, which today was lamb roast and roast veg with gravy and mint sauce.

Back at home I had a snack on these chocolates that Phil bought me the other day.

Then I snacked on a croissant he made yesterday.

Dinner was made by Phil, it's some kind of salty chicken and mushroom thing with rice.

It was a day out with my mate to see some art. I think that contributed to less snacking!

Wednesday foods

Wednesday foods

It's the usual thing I do when I get to work - instant Nescafe coffee.

Followed by two brownies this morning for breakfast.

Then I broke tradition by having milk tea.

Still hungry I had half a packet of Twisties. They were on special for $1. Thank goodness I don't live next door to a convenience store, I would be eating this kind of thing more regularly.

This was my lunch. A bit more proper. The remainder of the Camembert that Phil and I have been snacking on for weeks. Half a tub of honey yogurt. The leftover from last night dinner (mushroom and bacon pasta) and another cup of coffee.

Dessert was chocolate covered goji berries. Despite looking dubious they are really delicious.

At home I had a chrysanthemum tea.

And then snacked on chocolate, a present from Phil.

And dinner was croissants and jam. Phil made these croissants. We had two each. Yes, this is really what we had for dinner!
