My Dh has challenged me to a month without eggs. It seems that I've accepted the challenge without saying a word. What the heck do I do in a life without eggs? My breakfast of 2 or 3 eggs suddenly becomes reduced to 2 leftover sausages from the family's dinner the night before.
Lunch. Ok so I was hungry by lunch time. So hungry that I'd eaten the wing & leg before I even remembered to take a photo.
I also bought myself an Atkins Endulge Milk Chocolate bar. I don't usually by any of the Atkins products because they're overpriced, overprocessed 'junk-food', but I decided to see if it really DID taste like Milk Chocolate. It did! The only problem I found was that later in the afternoon, I had a quite crampy gut ache which I blame squarely on the bar.
Dinner was a bit of a spread out affair. We went swimming yesterday afternoon, so on the way home we picked up some potato fritters for DH & the kids. I had a slice of processed cheese - I wasn't hungry - just pickey.
Then about 1.5hrs later I had some prawns cooked in butter, cream & piri-piri seasoning.
Then finally I had a cheese sandwhich.I love these, but don't eat them often. It's not a good photo, but it's 2 slices of mild cheddar cheese with butter in the middle. I like to use the same thickness of butter as I do cheese. Enough to give a low-fat dieter an heartattack! (figuratively of course!).
And now it's time for another eggless breakfast. I'm hungry but I have no idea what to have.
Wow - no eggs! I'd rather die!
ReplyDeleteTo be fair, your DH should be doing a similar challenge - maybe no bread for a month?
I agree with Prue. No eggs! But why? It only seems fair for DH to give up one of his staples too.
ReplyDeleteIf only...... DH came up with a theory that my itchy leg & eye that I have recently aquired, may have something to do with too many eggs so suggested that I should try going without them for a month. I'm going to try.... but the leg & the eye thing are seasonal - as soon as the weather starts to cool, both get itchy.
