What did you eat today?
I love reading what people have (and getting new ideas/recipes).

Dinner - I am going to a pub quiz so will have a wee something to eat from their bar bites menu!

today I’ve had a cheese hot cross bun and a coffee. Meeting a friend to watch a movie (garden leave is going well!) and we are having lunch - probably half a pizza, some fries, a salad and a slaw (it’s what we have every time!) I have a meeting tonight and I’ll be going straight there from the cinema - whatever I can find in M and S food hall that I can shovel down me and is vaguely vegetably for dinner.

Also had six or seven cups of tea and a can of Cherry Coke Zero. I also had a random handful of sultanas mid-afternoon, and while I was out in the morning I had a couple of boiled sweets (aniseed twists!) which I found lurking in my bag from about a month ago.

Today I've had nothing for breakfast, and am about to have a Reuben sandwich from a local deli for lunch, then we're going out to a vegetarian Indian place for dinner where I invariably end up having bel puri, okra fries, paneer kadai and parathas. I'll probably have a couple of cocktails there, and then we're going to a gig where I'll probably have a pint of lager.
