missy1978 said:I wasn't too keen on the Boots sushi tbh - what I wanted was M&S really. The only things I buy from there are sushi (about once a month) and the lovely non-alcoholic beer they do occasionallyI like shop bought sushi but not for the same reasons that I like homemade.
I'll try the m&s wish I'd thought today as I wanted something quick in town and there was nothing I could eat :/ I would have settled for supermarket sushi just to eat but they are always fish ones and never veg. Not sure if I'm not keen since I starting being veg as the fish was ok or since I tried real sushi... Wasn't saying homemade is better as I have never made mh own

Why does s**t happen when you don't want it to - we have been in UK since 18th May - the longest ever - and 2 days ago our house tenants gave in their notice. Why did they not do it 2 months ago as we wanted to sell the house when they left - ( knew it was going to happen in the next 6 months) Rushing around for last 2 days now trying to sort things out to sell it as we were going home to Spain on Monday but hopefully it will be Wednesday at the latest. - Anybody want to buy a nice house in Nottingham.
Camera is packed so no photos.
Would like to thank all of you for your comments - very much appreciated and makes the dairy worth while doing.
We will be back in Spain and hopefully on the Internet by next Friday - Spain has the most expensive and slowest internet in Europe - it drives me nuts when I can read a book whilst waiting for a page to load. Goodness knows how I will do the photos. It is ok if you live there full time but we have to have a very slow dongle.
Anyway thanks again to all of you - I love this site and will be back.

Hi all - thank you for the messages and we are now back in Spain and the sunshine - it has taken more than 2 weeks to get back on line and me back on track.
Been eating and drinking too much for those 2 weeks, have eaten good stuff but with the addition of not so good stuff so have to take the bull by the horns and start eating better - no more cake and wine at my friends house although she does make lovely lemon drizzle cake which is usally accompanied by a glass or 2 or 3 of Rose. No more eating out and choosing the wrong stuff along with drinking the usual bottle of wine which usually comes with the meal .:sigh:THE HOLIDAY IS OVER has to be my new mantra.
FRIDAY 17th August
BREAKFAST
Porrige - Fruit - Yoghurt - HEX B
LUNCH
Red Pepper, tomato and celery soup - pitta bread - HEX B
Jelly - Fruit - Yoghurt - 1 SYN
Peach
DINNER
Veg and Bean Bake - 2 HEX A - 1 SYN FOR PESTO - 1 SYN FOR ENGEVITA YEAST
TOTAL - 2 HEX A - 2 HEX B - SYNS total is over limit for today - there were 2 glasses of wine left in the bottle so finished them - was going to put it down the sink but it is against my religion !!!! So about 20 SYNS for today

Thanks for the message Missy 1978- having real problems with this internet uploading the photographs so hope I can keep going with it as doing the diary really keeps me on track. Spain has the most expensive and slowest internet in Europe and I had forgotten how bad it was - could not use it for most of yesterday as it kept dropping down to 0- Kbits on me most of the time and am paying 38 euros a month for it on a dongle

CHEESE – ONION - MUSHROOM AND GARLIC BREAD PUDDING
It is 2 HEX A and 2 HEX B. Or use as much cheese as you want. I used 1 HEX B and 4 SYNS for the bread
It really is just a sandwich with an egg and cheese topping but it does taste good.
I microwaved half a chopped onion with some mushrooms, garlic and a little stock until they were cooked and the stock had gone.
2 slices of wholemeal bread which weighed about 100gms and when the mushrooms etc were cold made them into a sandwich which I cut into 4 triangles and put into a dish so they fitted quite tightly.
Beat 2 eggs with 50mls skimmed milk and 30gms strong cheese which is then poured over the bread. Heat the grill whilst you cook the sandwich in the microwave for about 4 minutes until the egg mix is set.
Sprinkle over another 30gms cheese and place under the grill until it has browned.
Going to try some different fillings, maybe some ratatouille.
