food what i ate: wednesday

9.35am - breakfast

Rhubarb yoghurt with dried cranberries and crumbled oatmeal cookie, soy drink and banana

• 1 cup Rachel's Organic low fat rhubarb yoghurt
• 1 oatmeal and raisin cookie, crumbled into the yoghurt
• Handful of dried cranberries
• 1 medium banana
• 1 Alpro chocolate soya drink

1.30pm - Crussh juice













Pineapple, orange, apple and carrot juice


2.45pm - lunch

Leftover "chicken" pie with mash and spring greens














Yu-um! Pastry went all soggy, just the way I like it. And it was more mash and green veg than pie - I left most of it for TS :)


7.30pm - dinner out with the lovely Amanda

We went to one of my favourite places, Hare and Tortoise, who do the most beautiful Asian food. There is always a line out the door. We were hungry by the time we sat down!













Starter: Vegetarian duck rolls (we had two each)
They had tofu, cucumber, spring onion and hoisin sauce in them













A superb Chilean Sauvignon Blanc - we shared a bottle, and I had about two and a half glasses....I think! I outdrank Amanda anyway!














Main course: vegetarian chow mein with tofu, mushrooms and chinese greens

9.30pm - dessert











Two squares of Top Deck chocolate (rationing my last bar from Christmas!)


Thoughts:

I was going to bake my muesli and tahini slice last night but burned my hand cooking dinner and therefore going anywhere near an oven was not an option! I don't think having children is an option for me until or unless my pain threshold becomes a lot higher! Having said that it was a significant burn. Perhaps I was a witch in a past life, I have a talent for getting burned.

So yes, therefore, not the best breakfast, but the best I could muster with what I had at work! Really should get up earlier :P

Had a late lunch as I went for a walk with a work friend, and she bought us juices from Crussh on the way to the park. So lovely sitting in the sunshine. London weather has been beautiful this week!

Dinner with Amanda - Hare and Tortoise has gorgeous food and there's so many healthy options to choose from. I felt like noodles so went for the chow mein. I haven't eaten out for weeks, so had been looking forward to this very much. Also the first alcohol I've had since the weekend. I tend to save it for either going out or for weekends.

Will try and do the muesli slice tonight before going to bed!
