I haven't tried those Scotch eggs Patricia; i'm still a bit funny with meat
because of being a vegetarian in the past.
I used to live off breakfast cereals & beans and mashed potato & the like.
Absolutely love sausages however, although always feel guilty afterwards though just because i think pigs are cute, i feel the same way about lambs.
I think i'd be more likely to be a pescatarian too, like Eno's friends.

Your ever so good to think of leaving out food for critters... , that word is so funny to me, we don't use it here.
What kind do you have?
We would mostly have wild foxes, but rodents are never too far away
from our premises since my poor cat passed on, so we don't leave out any food.
Can't stand the thought of putting down rat poison however- too cruel.

Doing my best to keep afloat these winters days; starting with a walk,
then a low carb green smoothie, green tea, & Vitamin D & Omega 3 oil afterwards.
When i kick start like that, it really helps.
More or less 'on plan' but way over-carbing; today i must have had 500-900 calories worth of chocolate...Unacceptable really by any stretch of the imagination.
I think i need to stick to a monotonous routine as simple is sometimes much easier.


Anyway; wishing you much peace & joy this advent season Patricia,
& You too Eno, Hope your
Hanukkah is an extra special one this year!
Enjoy the Latka fry's! Potato is the best!
