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.

Thank you @AwkwardSquad, they were delicious Smile (And I love leftovers!)

I often have extra heads to cook for, usually DS1’s best friend so the more the merrier Grin (pulls up a virtual seat)

DS1 is helping me to cook tonight, it makes me so happy to see my 2 DS have a keen interest in cooking.

Appreciating food that little bit more right now as haven’t been cooking proper meals for a while due to fridge freezer situation.
I want to cook everything all at once but instead I will just stay excited for all the delicious meals to come.

Dinner was DH's shepherds pie with green beans. Then I made ridiculous hot chocolate with squirty cream, marshmallows, cherry on top and chocolate brownie bits. Sunday night treat now summer seems to have done the off. Kids were happy anyway.

Phycadelicsilhouette · 30/09/2019 16:31

My appetite is almost non existent right now! 🙁

Today I’ve had...

Breakfast - coffee

Lunch - coffee and a snack sized Cadbury fudge

Dinner is cooking. Not hungry but will eat. - garlic and herb roasted chicken, Greek lemon potatoes, buttery green beans and peas cooked together and a half corn on the cob chargrilled.

If my appetite comes back I might have some strawberries and yogurt later on to make up for the lack of food throughout the day.
