Every time you mention olives I want to eat some. I had avocado and hummus with roasted veg and tuna for lunch, and yes it would have been even tastier with a few black olives thrown in.

25/05/18
Very late dinner:- serving chicken casserole, 0.5 tin pears & 0.5 the drained juice.

Slept a little bit!

Breakfast:- 2 slices toast kingsmill no crusts 50/50, 10g pure butter dromona, 200g baked beans heinz, 1 slice veg roll hulls, 1 sausage cookstown, cup twinings everyday & 40ml longlife almond milk alpro.

Lunch:- steam salmon fillet, 1 bag steam veg tesco greens & corn, 100ml pressed peach juice granini & a choc ice miss mollys.

Dinner:- 1 bag microwave popcorn *butterkist butter, 1tsp icing sugar, 0.5tsp ground cinnamon schwartz & bottled water. Wasn’t really hungry but, wanted to take something with the last antibiotic pill of the day before going to bed! A naughty treat that I love & haven’t had in a long time: sweet cinnamon popcorn! 😛 I tried just adding cinnamon without the sugar but, like cocoa, it’s naturally bitter & needs a little sugar!

My ear felt much better, with very little heat occasionally & only hurts a little when pressed directly on the lobe. 🙂

Edited to correct brand of popcorn

I used to like couscous but I think it has too many carbs. Slimy? I guess you stirred in too much butter. I prefer it dry with a separate sauce.
