Another slightly odd day, due to having people round for lunch.

Breakfast:

Hot cross bun, washed down with English Breakfast tea

Lunch:

Selection of stuff including cocktail sausages, leek tart, focaccia, humous, chicken drumsticks, potato salad; finished off with some lemon cheesecake. All bought at M&S (by P).

Dinner:

Still full from lunch, and needing to get something quick to eat before Lost came on, I ended up with a small bowl of Japanese rice crackers. Dessert was a mini bag of Cadbury’s Mini Eggs (obtained during the office Easter Egg hunt on Thursday). So, so bad.

Breakfast:

Hot cross bun + green tea.

Lunch:

Met up with a friend from work for dim sum at Wing Yip. Amongst the food consumed: har kau (prawn dumplings), paper-wrapped prawns, beef cheung fun, fried dough stick cheung fun, mixed meats with crispy fried noodles, turnip paste with dried meats (A’s favourite), and loads of other things I can’t remember.

Dinner:

Since dim sum is always so filling (or we always order too much), we never really bother with dinner. Having said that, we were peckish enough to make some tuna mayonnaise and sweetcorn baguettes to munch on during Grand Designs revisited.

Breakfast:

Half a slightly stale toasted wheatmeal hot cross bun. It was chewy. Too chewy.

Lunch:

Working from home today, so I took advantage of the fact that I could have a hot meal, leaving the baguette for another time (it’ll probably be stale by the time I get round to eating it). I occasionally (more often than I’d like) crave really bad food, so lunch consisted of some Demae Ramen sesame flavour instant noodles and soup, with pork luncheon meat, and spring onion to garnish. Looking at the ingredients, I can’t quite believe I chucked that down my gullet, but it’s horrid weather outside (it’s raining biblically) and comfort food is the order of the day.

Dinner:

Well, lunch did me no good because I ended up going to sleep for a couple of hours to try and shake off the bug I’ve got. (Really, I should have just added some double cream into the chicken stock from yesterday and had a comforting bowl of chicken soup.) Sitting at the dining table, slightly groggy, I had some spaghetti carbonara, as made by the fair hands of P.
