diet incompatible

As I mentioned when I first arrived out here, I eat all my meals (practically) with Zelma.

We have a light breakfast (mine a lot later than her's, standard), a big lunch, and then instead of dinner we have una once which is like tea I suppose. It's basically the same as breakfast - tea / coffee, bread with whatever's around, maybe some fruit...

But basically eating a lot of bread. A lot of fresh fruit and veg too... But a LOT of bread.

Anyhow. I have very little control over what I eat, which on one hand is annoying and was hard to adjust to, but at the same time has been kind of a good thing because I'm not thinking about it all the time or freaking out... I'm just getting on with life and not letting it get to me, despite my slight ballooning outwards.

However. Last week I did spend about 2 hours on Jamie Oliver's website looking up awesome recipes and saving them all so that when I get back to London I can cook like crazy and use up all my pent up kitchen energy.

Here are some of the things I am excited about:

Baked eggs


Swedish buns

Spinach and ricotta cannelloni


Mega chocolate fudge cake

Ultimate gingerbread

No doubt this will not help me lose the car tyre when I get back. Meh, I'll deal with that later...
