Breakfast Saturday 7 March 2026

I have been trawling the internet for breakfast ideas, I am coming up with the usual.
I'm bored at the minute with those choices.

I chopped up a big bowl of veggies within the last hour, I have some cooked chicken strips and around 9am, I'm planning on chicken on salad for breakfast around 9 am.

The usual pot of tea will be there as well.

Coffee for now not sure on actual breakfast. I’ll check with Dunc the golden boy. As he’s a Snacktician we think he has a doctorate in snack mooching.

If I boil water Dunc thinks he needs half. Yes he gets eggs at times the other morning maybe last Sunday Dunc had eggs and sardines.
Furry trooper is exhausted this morning he must have had a big play day at pup camp Friday. I got home from work late and i usually get a wooo wooo greeting at the door.
Last night he laid on the couch as i came in and just gave me tail wags my son said he must have played hard.
Yet Dunc did find the strength to be in attendance as i was heating up dinner grilled chicken and i shared.

Now I’m dying. for fruit. The only thing in the fridge is a couple huge pomegranates, which should satisfy that urge—once I spend the next hour picking the pith out of them.

For now, it’s the old chocolate-coffee granola to tide me over.

Three pears for a pear-watercress salad. I have red, Anjou, and Bosc. I need to pick up some Brie. That's coming up because they're not quite ripe yet.

I'm lucky to have a good Korean greengrocer: I even have blackberries to make my fave sauce from (lemon juice, agave, a little water). It's so good over waffles or yogurt.

Melons: the aforementioned honeydew, but they had cantaloupe at a fairly good price and I was tempted to buy a couple but put it off so I could finish the fruit I have now, which also includes green grapes and CaraCara oranges!

… and now I’m jonesing for citrus, too. I think it’s just a natural reaction to winter (even here in Florida) that we’ve been deprived of fruit and want some NOW.

and I am getting ready to pour my second mug on this foggy morning.

I am not hungry now because I woke and felt hungry around the time irisblue started this thread. I ate a turkey sandwich on rye bread with tomato, lettuce and mayo. I was accosted by Ducky looking for his share and shared a piece of turkey. We both went back to bed and slept soundly.

I guess I'll have some cereal with strawberries, banana and almond milk much later this morning.

TJ will be off to work tonight so she'll try to sleep some during the day. My job today is to be quiet and to (unsuccessfully) convince Ducky to be quiet.
