Now that I;m not working I find that I want a bigger breakfast as I'm doing a lot of walking in the mornings and tend to run errands or head out to meet friends then. I'll get home around 1 or 2pm and that's when I want a bowl of soup and usually a salad with some sort of protein - suppers tend to be more yogurt and fruit - that sort of thing.<br />Our clocks went back last night so I've been up for nearly2 hours already, changed the sheets, tidied the kitchen and made a cooked breakfast. I'm just enjoying my tea while checking on some blogs - I'll head into shower & dress shortly and get out for a walk as it's a beautiful, sunny Fall day - yet again (we have been very lucky) - have a lovely Sunday.Margie from Torontohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10103835021764804099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4690929350463100222.post-42592204201850855982016-11-06T05:19:05.415-08:002016-11-06T05:19:05.415-08:00Love cheese and fresh bread-I would have made a re...Love cheese and fresh bread-I would have made a real pig of myself-yum.

I'm with you on the old cheese to cheese sauce thing. Mind you my lot will have cheese sauce with everything.Frugal in Derbyshire https://www.blogger.com/profile/10221169113482164565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4690929350463100222.post-12290812608025466242016-11-06T04:40:26.093-08:002016-11-06T04:40:26.093-08:00That all sounded delicious, Hester!

We sometimes have a cooked lunch and then a sandwich and fruit supper, or a salad lunch and a casserole or something cooked for supper. Sometimes we have just a light meal at lunchtime and similarly at tea time, regarding how hungry we feel. We tend to go by how we feel, how hungry we feel, whether we actually feel too tired to bother cooking and then having just beans on toast. Meal plans are for restaurants, not for an elderly couple at home. We just eat whatever is handy, using up leftover as we go.<br />Margaret P galanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14190356279359463949noreply@blogger.com
