Well if there had been any fellas around me ... I suppose I would have smiled at them very sweetly. I am very much in the mood,
to celebrate how exciting food can be without being adulterated.
But there were no fellas.
This says they're short and plump. They are certainly plumper than normal bananas and about 6 inches long, on average I guess.
Hey... I enjoy a good banana eating viewing now and again! lol! I like how you called your dog "strange"...not sure why that tickled my funny bone. See..I'm so glad cause, where we're moving too... we're going to have places to hike. Here? we have all flat land. Boooooo
Places to hike makes a big difference to me. I'm sure you guys will enjoy that too. I also think a few hills make things more interesting - and make for better exercise of course.
Our "strange" dog... well perhaps you have seen me rant about her before. She certainly sparks a lot of conversation around here. Frequently it's of the "why is she ...? " variety. I guess she sparks a lot of laughter and shared eye rolling as well. She's a very idiosyncratic, independent minded individual and rather less easy going and pet-like than I had imagined my pet might turn out to be!
LOL, LOL It's been a little while since I stopped by, but OMG did I pick a good time to post. LOL Lady finger bananas, I never heard of those before, and I was busting a gut the entire time I was reading this page. LOL I'm still rolling in my shoes right now. Good to see your doing well my friend!! Hope the rest of your day is fabulous!

Well those bananas are not available everywhere, all the time, Kim, but they are well worth a try.
I forgot to post this last night.
Thursday
Breakfast 9:30 2 weetbix, 1/3 C diced peaches , 1C low fat soy milk. 1 slice wholemeal toast ½ + ½ with plum and cinnamon jam and vegemite. Boiled egg . 2 x coffee with 40 ml Hilo milk.
Snack 11:00 16 almonds (intended mainly to go to with ibuprofen as I keep forgetting to actually swallow them with my meals).
Lunch: 2:30 1 slice wholemeal toast with low fat cheese and a slice of ham. 1 slice wholemeal toast with vegemite. 1 cucumber.
1 ladyfinger banana.
2 x Coffee and milk.
Dinner: 8:00 1 slice fresh wholemeal bread. 150 gm fresh sea bream fried with a little flour and a little EVO oil, lime juice. Fresh veges: carrots, broccoli sprouts, zucchini, cauliflour, snow peas, sugar snap peas, mushroom, , celery, cucumber, red capsicum – very fresh and sweet. And a chopped salad with very similar ingredients, plus black olives and balsimic vinegar. Low fat yoghurt with chopped fresh pear.
Snack10:30 ½ McDonald's cappucinno.
Exercise: 5:50 40 minute local walk, with the dog. Who is as weird as ever. I walked at a reasonable pace – improved from Tuesday, but not up to normal. I am a bit impatient about it now but I guess as it's getting better I ought not be too antsy.
Last night I was thinking that perhaps I'd visit a physio and get a more informed opinion about when it's reasonable for me to start pushing it again. However, I slept in very late today, (the one upside to having kids home sick) so there is no way I will be able to get an appointment. I might just arrange one for Monday afternoon just in case, but hopefully I will be all right by then anyway.
It's funny, every time I read your dinner meals, I feel like I'm at a fancy restaurant and being served by some top chef. I can see it all so nicely displayed on a pretty plate with fancy trimmings around it. Keep on eating like that, and I'm going to have to make a special visit to your home town. Hehehehehe. Trust me, I wish I was rich enough to travel around to everyone's house on here and enjoy a cooked meal that we both made together. Wouldn't that be a blast???? Kind of like one of those kitchen shows, but we are the traveling chefs instead. LOL LOL Oh my gosh, I'm dreaming again, time to wake up and smell the coffee, which reminds me, my pot is done brewing and I need to grab me a fresh one right now!! Enjoy your day
Kim
Good morning! Wanted to stop by, hoping you're having a lovely day
-Valerie
Thank you. It was a good day and I have hopes of another one tomorrow. Nice weather still and that's a good foundation.

I did have a heaps of veges!! It's easy to tell when I've been vegetable shopping. I usually just eat some of whatever is in the fridge. I certainly eat better all the rest of the time when I am getting so excited just watching my salad bowl fill up!! (and munching things as it does - I think they taste even better while I'm preparing dinner.)
