Sausage egg and chips, a work in progress as I type. I forgot to buy ketchup but have a partial packet of gravy mix. O Canada!

Eggs on whole wheat, refried black beans and salsa. I could hear one little sausage crying softly in top of the fridge but closed my ears to him.

That's probably healthier than it looks.

Eggs ok. Wholewheat bread ok. Beans ok. The frying oil and cheese detract. A little, but ingredients seem ok. Photography a bit crap.

However, everything you've listed looks like it's infused with used engine oil. Including the photography.

And don't get me started on those eggs. They've been so disrespected, overcooked and badly trampled that they're bleeding. BLEEDING!

(Seriously though. I have a good friend who started getting minor stroke things that cause small clots in one of his eyeballs, messing up his vision. To remedy this, the surgeons cut open one of his carotid arteries and scraped the gunk out of it, which was good but they sealed his neck back up with 30 or so staples. It was one of those ops where you rewrite your will just before going under, if you know what I mean.)

Eggs and beans were fried in Becel and that isn't blood, it's Frank's Red Hot. Now if I'd listened to that sausage it would be a different story.
Ps: yolks were still liquid but it was close

American style pancakes and bacon washed down with Bailey's and brandy. I see the trajectory this day is going to take. ;)

Mmm booze... I'm still at work but later I shall pop the bottle of shiraz last night's headliner left in the green room.
Sausage egg toast and beans (yes, Clark's) for breakfast and began soaking beans for a crockpot batch.

I'm making porridge with steel cut oats; the mention of cream in the artist bc thread woke the ancient memory of porridge with milk and brown sugar and a little cream and even though I have no cream I'm that suggestible.

After a rather jolly and debaucherous weekend, HID has returned to reimpose the tyranny of the vegetable smoothie. :(

Chicken in hoisin and soy, 5 spice and garlic with lots of peppers and onions, rice.
Took chicken out to thaw for supper last night and fell asleep. :o
If I'd had any beer left.....

I'll just have coffee and juice. Going in for tests tomorrow and haven't been allowed to eat since supper on Saturday. My next meal will be supper on Tuesday and I've already been looking forward to it for a day. :( Not allowed booze either which is a crying shame.

Cereal was my staple breakfast, but now I've been eating oatmeal instead since it keeps me fuller longer and is cheaper and goes further.

I don't add milk or sugar since I am trying to reduce sugar intake by a large amount.

So just water? As in porridge?

If you have a fussy eater, then I suggest Eggo, "thick and fluffy" waffles. Plus, a milky hot chocolate made with the steam attachment on your expresso maker. And also you can get yourself a couple of nice large Bailey's under the guise of it being, grown-up hot chocolate. Makes two hours walking around a naffing aquarium somewhat tolerable.

Oh lordy I haven't been there since '83; they'd just built the Amazon rainforest thing and a guide stood on the little bridge so no toddlers would fall into the piranha infested river below. She said "This is our new petting pool."

It was tragic being there with so many fish and no rod. :thumbdown:
