    So it's basically a pancake (rather than bread) and then they smear on nutella spread, shave off 'kebab-style' chocolate (Google it), pour melted nutella in, and then top it off by covering the outside in chocolate sauce and it comes like a kebab that you can eat.

    Anything less than a thousand syns would be a miracle....

    Glad you gave recipe out I was :drool: til you said Nutella then was _pale_so you can keep it :)

    That's somewhere we've never been Bubbs. Maybe one day, LOL!

    Absolutely agree Tweets - can't stand Nutella! Don't even like the smell.

    Thanks, Denise, I’m nowhere near getting into a routine again yet. I’m playing catch up all the time. It’ll take a wee while to work out where is best to fit in household tasks. I’ve already got one thing sorted – I can only meet friends on a Friday now, so that should be good, eh! I do meal plan all the time, including breakfast and lunch, for a week at a time. I couldn’t manage more than a week in advance though. I’m running down freezer for Christmas (well, that was the intention, but I had to put in leftovers of vegetable soup and chilli from yesterday). I even keep a note of what’s in there!
    It might not make sense to anyone but me, but I don’t mind ‘wet’ rain!

    Ha ha, maman, I wish! I’m arranging my childminding so that I bring DGD here on Tuesday (also family dinner night) and I stay at her house on Wednesday; DD finishes a bit earlier and can pick up DGS on way home, which is a lot easier than coming to my house after that. I need to think more carefully about what I am going to have for breakfast and lunch though. DH goes to indoor bowls on Mon, Wed & Fri mornings and usually eats there as he picks up our other 2 grandchildren from school and wouldn’t have time to get home. I quite often have double fishy too if I’m having 2 courses, maman.

    Oh, kathryn, I am so sorry for your daughter – and you. I hope she recovers quickly from her latest injury. And wow wow wow on that amazing loss!

    Glad you don’t need surgery, bubbs, but sorry you just have to put up with the pain. I should go and see about mine. The orthotic inserts the podiatrist gave me have definitely made a difference but I don’t think they’re the complete solution. Congrats on the dress size, btw.

    Take care, Stoke. And that choc kebab is disgusting to me! And I am not joking when say that. Now a pancake and jam ….

    Good for you, LMCD, three times over.

    Had taken pics yesterday again, then didn’t get on to post them. Stayed within syns again. But today – oh, oh. I didn’t take anything to DD’s for lunch (I had planned but I wasn’t organised enough and running late). I did take a banana and a Light & Free lemon yogurt ( ½ ) for breakfast. Between bowling and picking up kids, DH brought me a Greggs ham and egg salad sandwich - and an Empire biscuit. The thought was nice but I ate it all. Tonight for tea it was tuna pasta (I know, I’m missing veg again) then an orange. I’m having cheese (A) & grapes for supper. No other snacks.

    Hoping to be back tomorrow.

    Well yesterday I didn't totally stick to my plan, but stuck to the plan, although maybe a little short on the speed.


    Today's plan:
    Breakfast - porridge and fruit
    Lunch - Baked beans with added mushrooms and tomatoes (That's what happens when you forget to prep something the night before)
    Dinner - Not sure, but will include plenty of speed
    Snacks - Yogurt, apple, satsumas, persimmon, mango


    HA - milk
    HB - oats
    Syns - Yogurt (1)

  • Hoping for a reasonable result tonight. Was a bit naughty on Friday, but have hopefully pulled it all back, did a lot of walking over weekend, 45 mins to do 3 miles on Sat & Sun & have tried to get as much as I could since. My car has been in garage since Tuesday, so planned to walk a good part of the journey home, except the weather decided otherwise! Have been running up & down the stairs at work, doing 5 at a time, would like to go for a bit more, but my arthritic knee starts to object, so have to listen to that!

    I successfully got over my biggest worry for the week. I am trying to learn Arabic and we always have a bit of a social time for the last class of term, everyone takes in food, which was what I worried about. I made fudge! I hate the stuff, so that was easy to ignore, but there were samosas, dips, crisps, cake, mince pies & thankfully there were 2 reasonably friendly dishes, a rice one cooked with various spices & a sort of tabboulah salad, but with mint instead of coriander. Had some of those, decided to syn them at 5, but probably that is an overestimate, then went home & had dinner, was very proud of myself!

    Have a good day everyone!
