Breakfast : Yoghurt & Oats

Lunch : Shared two dishes at “Munchies” on Aldeburgh high street.

1) Cheeseburger in a Suffolk bap (£5.95).  Juicy.

2) Beef hot pot. (£4.95)

(Lashings) of ginger beer to wash it all down.

Over to the in-laws to pick up some furniture; Mother-in-law was cooking a simple tasty looking Sausage dish for supper.

Food:

• onion
• apple (any kind)
• sausage
• mustard

Method:

Slice onions & apples into rings (or whatever) and place in the sort of dish you would cook lasagna in.  Place sausages on top.  Spread a little mustard onto the sausages.

Cook in oven (med/high) for C. 1hr.

The onions and apples will caramelise and you will be left with a delicious “goo” along with your sausages.  Serve with mashed potatoes and savoy cabbage.  Or whatever….

Then it’s off to the badlands of Norfolk for a Christmas drinks party.  Details are a little hazy but I remember it being very wet.  Tasty snack food at the party (sausages, bread and cheese, sausage rolls, etc…) .  Late drive home.

Popped into Starbucks to do some work (Still here). £3.95 buys you…

1 x Small/Tall Mocha

1 x Carrot Cake

All in all a combination of sugary goodness that’s hard to complain about. Sure the cake’s not quite as good as great aunt Maude used to make, and the coffee could be a bit hotter but quit your moaning. You can sit down in comfort and do your work, a far cry from granddad having to work down the pit 20 hours a day for an handful of old buttons and a case of emphysema.

So….. I’d better get on with that work then…

We’ve just back from being invited round for coffee by our neighbour.  That might not strike you as strange, but Wife and I live in central London.

It was a very pleasing hour or so, especially when the biscuit tin came out.  None of this poncy organic low food miles mind your carbon foot print nonsense.  Straight in with a choice of…

• Penguin (remember those?).
• Kitkat (two fingers, milk chocolate).
• Wagon Wheels.

Brilliant.  Quite quite brilliant!
