Apparently one meaning of 'round' is a circular slice.

So, the meaning of 'round' for sharing has stuck with sandwiches, whilst the meaning of 'round' as a circular slice has stuck with toast.

I had breakfast early Sunday evening at Cracked Barrel because we went too far up 81 before looking for a restaurant. I ordered breakfast because their dinner food sucks, unfortunately it turns out their breakfast sucks as well. Who can't make decent hash browns and sausage? Worst chain in America. I put that food in a stomach which had cleared itself most effectively in two directions the night before, bad idea.

I'll have a circle of bread and a triangle's worth of jam spread across it.

this morning's fast breaking coffee was accompanied by spinach and eggs. I've noticed that my love of spinach has increased. Maybe to the point that I can justify buying it in large quantities, like restaurant scale bags. I've done that once so far and I ate it all, needed to throw out none. But I had help in the course of consuming that bag. This last bag was a grocery store sized bag, 9 ounces, and lasted only two meals.

Today I treated myself to a Skinny Egg White sandwich from Bruegger's. It was surprisingly good! I would definitely buy it again.

And after all, if you are making a sandwich with peanut butter, you deserve to be shot.

Today I had a Celebrity Slim shake for breakfast.
Mum & I are on their programme for the month.
It was on sale in our local pharmacy - £5 a box (a week's worth) down from £29.99 because they are rebranding.
I figured it was cheaper than buying food, so why not?
And I really could do with shifting some lbs. I mean REALLY need to (as usual).

However I am also drinking. Which won't help. Never does. Oops.
I have seriously cut back, and hope to be teetotal again by the time school starts.

mrs and I decided to give up drinking... in fact we had a couple of Gin n Tonics last night just to celebrate.

Griff · 08-02-2011, 05:39 AM

Goat milk yogurt, tortilla with egg ham and cheese, and coffee. All milk products were produced here along with the egg.

Sundae · 08-02-2011, 05:51 AM

I swear I'm burping up powder

Griff, your brekkus sounds the most inviting of all I've seen so far.
Can I come round tomorrow?

Griff · 08-02-2011, 05:57 AM

Sure, pop by, I'll put on an extra plate.

Trilby · 08-02-2011, 06:47 AM

Two-bite brand blueberry scones.

A bit too sweet if you ask me.

And scalding hot coffee.

bbro · 08-02-2011, 07:41 AM

Egg salad with turkey sausage on an english muffin. Oh. and milk to go with it.

Clodfobble · 08-02-2011, 12:08 PM

Bakery On Main gluten-free granola, and almond milk. Almost forgot to eat it.
