Whale Watching
At some point I will write up the wonderful walk we did on Friday round Easton on the Hill - walk 1 of Northampton Pocket Pub Walks (not a crawl as some people have been disappointed to find out).
But, extreme insomnia and the subsequent lack of writing aside, it has been a fantastic week for one of my goals - I'm properly back on track with Weight Watchers, having shed 3.5lbs this week.
After weigh-in I decided some kind of 'good' food treat was in order for brunchy-pops. Smoked salmon and cream cheese bagel? However Asda did not have the trimmings nor the cheese I desired. So I compromised: toasted bagel with Quark and dressed lobster with mixed salad leaves. Om nom nom. Oh and then late lunch was sweet and sour tiger prawns with rice, followed by strawberries, again with Quark and a mini gingerbread man (a sort of deconstructed cheesecake). Prawns and salad were shelves of shame, the fruit and veg off the market, the sweet and sour sauce 25p for 4 servings. The lobster was a decadent purchase - I paid a whole pound for that. Because there have been meals out this week, a budget is necessary, but I am eagle-eyed for this sort of thing. Bagel 8PP, prawns 8PP and strawberries 2PP for the WW followers!
