What have you eaten today? Part 2

[AwkwardSquad]

Shiny new thread, continuing from here

A diary thread for our daily meals, to record, share, glean menu inspiration and chat, but no judging each other’s food choices.

I haven’t @AwkwardSquad but I was going to go to m&s (and a few other shops close to the vets) while I wait for the first of our kittens to be castrated in a couple of weeks so will definitely pop that on my list!
Any other recommendations for treats from m&s?

Added to my food diary for today....

Some multigrain crackers with a shared miniature cheese selection and then a few quality street chocolates with eldest DS (13 1/2) while we had an evening just us 2 (I like to fit in some to 1 time when I can as I am on my own with 2 DS) re-watching A-typical from the beginning as season 3 is out soon!

Breakfast- small can of diet red bull
Lunch- 1/2 bag crisps, 1/2 a cereal bar, 1/2 a tub of mango (I shared them with my toddler). Large double shot latte.
Snack- Cashew cookie bar, cranberry juice
Dinner- brioche bun with peanut butter and banana in it, carrot sticks and hummus, passion fruit live yoghurt, glass of Tango

B - smoked tofu salad wrap. 3 cups of tea.
S - oatie biscuits .
L - vegan blt, packet chicken walkers. 2 cups of tea.
S- apple from my mums garden.
D- bowl of ginger garlic noodle soup.

Speaking of lemon curd it's my weakness too, I like it on crumpets or on a digestive biscuit with cream cheese.

D- ham & leek pie, mash, peas. Glass of white wine
Bowl of rum ice cream

B: porridge with a dash of maple syrup, buttered toast, black coffee

Lost count of the alcohol but think it was 3/4 g&t and a few glasses of wine
