day 46

Foraged Fair breakfast. Had the good fortune to happen on an wildly unkempt peach tree in the neighborhood as we cruised the back alleys looking for overhang. Usually people around here cover their peaches in net to keep both urban grafters and birds at bay but this one was free!!! I loaded up the bottom of the pram while also being respectful and leaving a good ten or so for the owners and other would be foragers. Unbelievably good, as were the nectarines i'd picked up under similar circumstances a few days earlier. Also tried out rice syrup as a pourable alternative to honey. Perfect viscosity, but a little like pouring liquid malt on your breakfast, SHUDDER. Definitely a cooking only proposition.


MENU: mountain muesli with fresh raspberries, bio dynamic yoghurt, brown rice syrup, poached foraged peaches and nectarines.

day 32

I'm so bored by this breakfast. chew chew chew.
MENU: yellow poached peaches, mountain muesli, honey yoghurt, soy milk.

day 22

Sweltering morning = fruit salad breakfast. You could put toasted coconut on pretty much anything and I'd eat it. Must have been all the toasted marshmallows from Darrel Lea I ate as a child. Anyhoo, no doubt most of today will be spent dodging my garden hose wielding three year old so I'd best power up with a decent breakfast.
MENU: cherries, white nectarines, yellow peaches, flame seedless grapes, toasted shredded coconut, coffee

day 21

Another day another museli, REAL GOOD FOOD wheat free museli. Well if you ask me that title is a little presumptuous - I'll be the judge of whether it is indeed REAL GOOD thank you very much. I meant to pick up the granola version but to my dismay when I got home I realised i'd picked up the oven roasted museli instead. Blerk. Horse food.
MENU: Real Good Food wheat free oven roasted museli, poached yellow peaches and white nectarines, real yoghurt.
RATING: one Neil Diamond - will probably go straight into the biscuit making pile with all the other fails.

day 19

Just peachy. Apologies that was appalling. Haven't had coffee yet so my wit setting hasn't been activated. White peaches are a particular favourite of mine, and in season so i've been eating truckloads. However seeing as we reverted back to winter this morning after the heatwave of the last couple of days (go Melbourne) I decided on poached rather than plain. Which turned out an excellent choice. Totally delicious. Still unsure about the soy yoghurt, I want to like it but it's just not that great. Bit like a Prius really.
MENU: last of the morpeth museli, poached white peaches, soy yoghurt, honey.
