Group 7-day waking average?

It wasn’t tripe, quinoa, borscht or a jar full of capers…
 
Octopus? or something in squid ink?
Couldn’t eat either of those with me being a Red Sea Pedestrian and all that!
 
Good morning everyone, it was a 4.1 for me earlier this morning - a jelly baby sorted that out until I had
my porridge an hour later.

Have a good day folks and stay safe.

Morning all - what a beautiful day - wall to wall sun and no wind by the look of it.

7.1 this morning. I found out why I was 10+ yesterday when I took the pod off to change it at lunchtime. The backing fabric was soaking, so it had been leaking insulin instead of putting it in me.

Hugs to @Lucy. Hope you find Dad some new trousers.

Hugs also to @Gwynn - hope things settle down for you and your wife.

Hope @MikeyBikey feels better soon.

My task today is selecting clothes for the next 5 days.... given the unpredictable weather that should be fun!

Where you going for your birthdays? I’m not doing anything special for mine this year as nothing can beat last year’s trip to see the puffins. Have a great time both of you. X

Oh yes... that was a remarkable birthday. We're going to Cardiff. Our friends who are meeting us there say it's very lively and lots to do.
 
4.5 after another alarm in the middle of the night dont really understand why its changed so much but cant complain i suppose out for a meal tonight so see how my BS reacts, ive had bread three days on the trot at lunch time and its hasn't gone up much at all.

I'm just the same as far as bread is concerned @Pam123 , toast with my porridge at breakfast and a sandwich at lunchtime seems to make barely any difference to my bg reading I'm pleased to say.

i have always had issues with bread until 3 days ago no idea why its Chocolate i can eat without it making much difference to my BG and im happy with that LOL
 
Evening all. 5 something this morning. Its stayed like that all day, even with eating no lunch and only half a cup of coffee. Feeling peckish not so long ago, i had a croissant with a coffee while seeing a friend. Despite bolussing, i've shot to 15!!

@ColinUK i think its caviar. Put us out of our misery.

I expect he's off out surveying the localities - far too engrossed to agree with us two that it's Caviar Freesia - but I'm sure I recognise the little jar.
 
Not caviar either. But that would be scrumptious in a jar that size.

It was mushroom pesto (mushroom, walnuts, parmesan, walnut oil) layered with teeny tiny potato dumplings. It was odd as all the oil sunk to the bottom of the jar so the stuff at the top was D-R-Y to say the least.
About half way down the jar it became really rather delicious though and now I’m determined to make mushroom and walnut pesto.

I used a jar of pistachio pesto last night, presumably they are now cheaper than pine nuts.
When I have lots of home grown basil I use almonds instead of pine nuts.
