You can keep the batternburg cake, I don't like it 🙂

Hubby's favourite! Thankfully I find it too sweet.😛

It's my mum's fav too 🙂 she loves marzipan.

I only started to like marzipan last year when I made it myself, homemade is sooo much nicer than the bought stuff!

Day 10, a hugely successful person with diabetes - Sir Steve Redgrave:

...and today's treat, a giant pork pie!

🙂

 

[Steff]

[Andy HB]

NOW WE'RE TALKING PROPER FOOD!

Mmmmmmm. Pork Pies! And it's saturday tomorrow!

(resist, Andy, resist!)

Day 11, some nice low-carb pickled eggs...

...and today's treat a big tin of Quality Street - bags I get the green triangles! 🙂

 

[Northerner]

Day 12, a hypo alert dog in training:

...and today's treat, a selection of quality Russian vodkas 😉

 

[katie]

Ooh ive missed loads.

Again you can keep the pie, dont eat red meat. But the quality streets and vodka make up for it

What a cute puppy, absolutely gorgeous. I've done nothing but think of pork pies since you posted that picture.....but have managed to resist so far. The voda pictures are cruel for me to see - my Polish friends had this delicious flavoured frozen vodkas, they went down so easily that I lost track of how many I'd drunk..................this was nearly 10 years ago but I still have the memory of how ill I was afterwards😱

..................this was nearly 10 years ago but I still have the memory of how ill I was afterwards😱

I thought that you were going to say that you've only just come round after 10 years! 😱🙂

Baby Muppet (daughter) wants to know what behind day 13?????

Oh and can she have the puppy, and as she's not diabetic she says she might as well take on the treats as well.. Exception of the batternberg cake something strangly she doesn't like in life😱

 

[Northerner]

Day 13, a human pancreas:

...and today's treat, a knickerbocker glory!

 

[cazscot]

Hubby would devour that pork pie in one go 😱 😱

Sorry Alan this one I don't like - brings back painful memories of my operation in May - and the resulting months of recovery.😱

cannot think of any treat that would offset that period - not even winning Euro Millions after roll over....

Sorry Martin, didn't mean to bring back those memories

 

[Steff]

Oh dear me not a fan either hehe, but thats ok first thing i have disliked

 

[KateR]

Now that does bring back happy memories of going down to our local milk bar (that gives my age away😱) and sharing a knickerbocker glory with my two best friends and asking for three spoons cos we could only afford the one between us.

 

[AJLang]

Yum yum my dad used to take my brother and I for knickerbocker glories at the local Wimpey when mum was at work! Wow that picture does bring back good memories, thank you!!!!

 

[alisonz]
