What are you having for breakfast?

[existentialist]

and rendered insulinemically inert by peanut butter.

 

[gentlegreen]

It's 25 grammes of wholewheat flour with moderate GI spikiness, but the PNB should make it fairly inert
I may not be diabetic, but have learned to avoid blood sugar spikes for multiple reasons.

Homemade granola, oat milk.

2 cups of Peruvian coffee.

Overnight oats

Always wondered whether soaking oats overnight turns them slimy, like a bowl full of slugs.

If it did, would I fucking eat them? WOULD I?

I don't know - you might like to eat slugs.

But surely oats are dead easy to cook on the day - a few minutes in the microwave and they're done. I doubt I could be organised enough to plan that far ahead.

The point IS that it is summer, and hot, too hot to eat porridge. This is like summer porridge. It's not exactly difficult anyway - I usually make 2 or 3 days worth and just stick in the fridge.

Cherries are plentiful and inexpensive this year. I'll have some with oatmeal, yogurt and honey. Some nice hot tea to wash it down...

 

[gentlegreen]

I'm looking forward to a new life and different - perhaps varying habits -

In France I am likely to once again shed some of my vegan purity in exchange for the massive benefits of company....though doubtless there will often be the option of bread and jam in place of croissants....and I will be living in crepe-land....or perhaps I will learn to appreciate coffee by itself...

And I will likely have to learn to appreciate different qualities in coffee after many years with the luxury of carefully crafting my own
Hopefully I will at least find a source of beans I like ...

And if I start having visitors I will need to learn to cater for their varied tastes...

But then there's the green smoothie option..or grazing seasonal fruits in the potager...

Intuitively mixing it up is on the cards along with early morning exercise to work up a genuine appetite...

 

[sojourner]

Homemade granola, oat milk.

2 cups of Brazilian coffee.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Mixed nuts (walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts, cashews)

 

[RubyToogood]

Home-mixed muesli with oat milk, mulberries, a few other stray berries and stewed blackcurrants. Bit of maple syrup. Coffee.

Normally I'd have this with Greek yoghurt but I'm out of it. It was so, so good without! Sometimes I think the yoghurt masks the taste really.

 

[friedaweed]

Coffee and cock talk.
