I give up on your Veg intake...I think you are a lost cause.

Poached Tasmanian Salmon, boiled spuds, baby peas, cauliflower, carrots and white ( herb) sauce.

Quiet weather here Maz but showery today with a high of 13C. Still good weather and all the green things are enjoying it. I noticed that lots of baby walnuts have fallen off the tree outside Barlic Bites....

It's Betty at Majestic Discounts that collects most of the walnuts (when they are mature), I forget how many kilo she gathered last year. Had a window display that used them. (See pic in Blossom topic.)

Pressed beef salad for dinner, ham salad for tea. Had a bad attack of the munchies after tea but I resisted it! It's very hard isn't it, not hunger, just the desire to eat.

Maz, when it happens think of the back view of someone with an enormous bum and repeat to yourself. " My strength is that of ten because I am pure!" That might help....

Can you define "pure" , Stanley?
I have a problem with that word. ( can't see myself fulfilling the definition!).
Feel I would have to inhale mountain air, live on Spring Water, and wander about doing only good deeds and thinking only good thoughts to be pure.
My bum is not enormous...

"My bum is not enormous..." Then you are OK.... Pure, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder....
Ham salad for dinner, two small haslet salad butties for tea. No munchies but an apple and a pear for pudding.

It was nice Maz. Something about hot chips and cool lettuce!

Indeed. Though we rarely eat chips.
Our dinner was yummy too...filling...I couldn't quite finish my serve.
( that's the difference between hubby and I...I push my plate away as soon as I have had enough...he eats the lot because he was a post war baby and was always taught to eat everything on his plate. )

I'm the same Maz, always clean my plate. I once got into trouble in California for doing this when I wiped the gravy up after a good steak with a crust of bread. (Have you ever tried asking for bread in a Californian restaurant? They look at you as though you are touched!) The psychiatrists I was dining with agreed I was oral obsessive and anally retentive. I told them no, I just enjoyed the gravy!
I had the remainder of the chips warmed up for dinner with half a black pudding and salad. The other half of the black pudding with a dead crust toasted and made into croutons (waste not want not) with half a tin of naked (Typo but too good to correct!) beans, a boiled egg and salad for tea. Had a bad attack of the munchies again but resisted.....

Made a salad butty based on the remaining baked beans for dinner and another with a base of mackerel fillets in tomato sauce for tea.

I think this is my favourite recipe. I had some old onions so I chopped them up and softened them in olive oil, then added a tin of chopped tomato, garlic, vinegar, salt and pepper and spices. If you leave it to simmer for an hour the strange miracle that happens when tomatoes, olive oil and vinegar are combined brings out a lovely sweet flavour. I use it as a sauce and a spread on dry bread.
Yesterday the Cathedral of Choice had a BOGOF on Bird's Eye cod steak in parsley sauce so I had fish, chips and peas for dinner and the same for tea but with tomato and onion sauce instead of the peas. Had half a cheese and tomato butty later in the evening to fill a chink.... (I am human after all!)

Might do Pie and Mash tonight if I find the energy...and a saucepan...and work out how to use the oven. Otherwise, it will be toasted sandwiches!
