Thursday, coffee and carbs.

I had a very nice morning yesterday, getting up at 10 to
do laps at our local swimming pool, and coming home to
make a nice big coffee. I have a Gustav Klimt percolator
that I received for my last birthday, and this birthday I
got a proper frother, so now I am making my own lattes
and LOVING IT! My favourite coffee for home is the Global
Cafe Direct Organic Coffee in the Africas, it has a beautiful
strong taste. Usually when I go out for coffee I try to drink
soy, because of my sinus issues, but we have raw milk at
home which doesn't do anything to me, except mum and I
have observed it help you loose weight. Funny what no
pasteurisation and homogenisation can do..

I had some lollies left over from my trip from Melbourne on
the train. I know it's disgusting, but I love fizzoes and chocos,
just little treats every once in awhile..

My little sister had a fairy party to attend
at one of our neighbours houses, so my mum
decided to make some 'Fairy Meringues' that
were absolutely delicious. We were only allowed
one each, as they were for the party, but I absolutely
loved the patterns she put on top of the meringues,
they look so cool..

For dinner we had a beautiful fresh meal, most of which
came from our garden. There was the roast potatoes and beetroots,
with rocket and an organic goats cheese mum splurged on at
Bendigo Wholefoods, it was so yummy. The salad was made up of
tomato, apple, cucumber and red onions, garnished with basic and
garlic, and a nice simple balsamic vinegar and olive oil dressing.
Due to the warmer weather, it was a perfect combination of heavy and light
ingredients.. The starch hit my stomach straight away though..

Mums favourite television show, Thank God You're Here, was on,
so she decided to make some vanilla ice cream, and at the last minute
a speedy sticky date pudding. We didn't really have any room left to
eat after that massive dinner, but somehow found some especially for this.

It was a particularly good food day .. more tomorrow.
