Later this afternoon I am heading into Canterbury to my friend's hen do. We are starting at 4pm with a cocktail masterclass, followed by a 3 course meal then back to my friend's for drinks (probably lots of them). I expect it will get a bit messy 😉😱
 
Breakfast = regular Saturday fry up with my daughter, I take my slice of Burgen with me to have as my toast 😛
Dinner, stir fry veg with Jamaican jerk pork sausages from Aldi, really low carb/sugar
Snack for later will be Greek yoghurt with a little sugar free caramel syrup 🙄
