Saturday, week 2
Breakfast: Porridge with brown sugar (soon to be honey or fruit..and cream!),
Spaghetti for J-Man
Lunch: Spaghetti cheese and onion on toast for dh and Princess, salad for J-Man,
Curried egg sandwiches for me, and boiled eggs for Tombliboo (plus cookies
and fruit)
Dinner: Homemade Burgers- oh, these are good. I normally cut Tombliboo's bun
really small for him, but didn't tonight and boy did he think it was
funny! "Look Dad! Look my burger! Dat bunny! See dat Daddy? Dat a
BIG one!"
Snacks: Homemade choc-chip cookies, banans, cucumber, carrot, tomato (Tombliboo
eats whole tomatoes), cheese
I planned to bake burger buns today, but realised the house was a tip and I can buy them for $2 at the shop...eeek...I told you I was hopeless at sticking to anything.
But seriously, there was no room on the bench to make anything. I had to do the dishes in two sittings. I swept and mopped the filthy floor, tidied the table so we could actually eat there, did lots of washing, tidied the whole (hideously messy) lounge, and vacuumed it as well. I also went to the shops once to buy a container for cream, and to the library another time to quickly swap our books on tape before it closed.
Also, I had been up-and-doing from 5:30am (awake since 4:15am), so I was a bit jaded.
It was $2 well spent imo...but what to do when we are not eating refined grains? I think it will be a long way off, needs to be a bit of a journey...making changes slowly (not too slowly) so they stick. I think we can get some nice wholemeal (cape seed) bread rolls at a specialty bakery.
Or maybe I'll be more organised and make my own healthy ones...or maybe we will just have the burger middle, and no buns...we shall see, lol.

You are making so many changes! It's great that you allow yourself to buy buns or the like. Sometimes we just have to cut corners, even if it's just a tiny bit.
