What I Ate

I read a lot of food blogs and sadly most of them are northern hemisphere centric. This means that when my body is getting ready for winter, the internet is tempting me with pretty pictures of fresh spring/summer foods.

There were a lot of recipes last month with fresh asparagus. I love asparagus. I have to wait till October to satisfy that craving.

Here it is soup season, so soups it is!

What I ate

The Food

• Porridge made by Thomas with almonds, dried apricots, sunflower seeds and raisins.
• Mandarins and pumpkin seeds.
• Fried eggs served with mixed vegetables, feta and salsa. Thomas likes to add toast with his for the texture but I like it without.
• Kiwifruit and walnuts.
• Marinated mussels.
• Broccoli, Leek and Potato soup made both of us chucking things in the pot. It’s simple but yummy.
