day 30

good scones, good jam, good company... perfect.
MENU: Ramona and Womble scones with Miss Penelope's strawberry jam, lashings of double cream, coffee.

day 15

No excuses, piggy breakfast. The fruit a small nod toward healthy eating but really its all about the maple syrup. As you can see. Excellent text conversation over breakfast re Game of Thrones has left me with this to say: plusses - excellent production values, tip top cast, gorgeous scenery, on the negatives however - clunky dialogue, lame assed lady character development and totally crapola dye jobs. Still I'm watching all of it, and loving it because truth be known I'm never happier than when I'm surrounded by gloomy castles, windy moors, clashing swords and muddy hemlines. There, now it's out.
MENU: banana pancakes with mango, strawberries and maple syrup. LOTS of maple syrup.

day 6

Much better sleep and much better breakfast! Toddlers request for a Hungry Bears breakfast today and truth be told mama's as well. Feels like a guilty pleasure, but only I can see how much butter is sandwiched between that short stack.
MENU: buckwheat banana and coconut pancakes with butter, maple syrup and strawberries.

day 5

Weird morning, very little sleep last night - seven month old teething. Nuff Said. Sigh. Very early and very little inspiration for creating something both good looking and good for me. Breakfast today is mere fuel. That and the vat of strong coffee that will accompany it. Having another crack at the Morpeth Granola - unconvinced.

MENU: Morpeth Sourdough bakery oven baked mulitgrain museli with cherries, strawberries, blueberries, and organic blueberry yoghurt. It'll do.

day 4

A new day and a new granola. This one served up in a very special black Kris Coad porcelain dish. I am a sucker for a good bowl, I have loads of single bowls I only eat certain things from. For a long time I had a blue Japanese bowl that was my favorite and I ate everything from it. Then I found myself in a new workplace surrounded by kick ass ceramics I clearly couldn't live without. It's a weird obsession i'll grant you.
MENU: Morpeth Sourdough Bakery oven baked berry multigrain museli, with strawberries, blueberries, and biodynamic bush honey yoghurt. Quite good.
