Chocolate. Lots of chocolate.

Yesterday's breakfast was mince pies (with lashings of brandy butter).

Craving a degree of normality after two days of excess I had my regular workday breakfast even though on holiday - a bowl of simple lightly salted porridge (water not milk) and a segmented half pink grapefruit.

I l do like the salt/sour contrast and find chilled grapefruit a tremendous wake up call to the senses. I like shopping for grapefruit - I find that the ones that are slightly flattened (not spherical) tend to be juiciest. A segmented orange is an acceptable substitute as long as its chilled.

A glass of Waitrose orange juice with bits (whose bits I'm not going to divulge), porridge made with Mornflake jumbo oats and hazel nut milk, sprinkled lightly with chia seeds and dark brown muscovado sugar, two large mugs of tea with oat milk.

Was going to have ham and eggs but ended up not having time, so did a couple of slices of toast with Gentleman's Relish. I haven't informed the gentleman, but I imagine he will be fine about it.

I'm out earlier tomorrow but I'll damn well have ham and eggs, damn it.

I felt in need of vegetables so I had broccoli for breakfast. As it was breakfast, I didn't want to cook it in a fancy, time-consuming way, so I microwaved it for 90s or so. Apart from some I ate raw, which was possibly the best bit. Had it with couscous.

One slice of vollkornbrot and two of ham. Tomorrow it'll be tagliatelle & lardons because I'll be riding.

We did a Curry of Special Magnificence last night, so I had left over naans.

So I had the Dishoom ( yes, I know. I'll shut up shortly.. ) Bacon and Egg Naan, which is of course the breakfast of champions.
And yes, it did involve a drizzle of chilli jam. So there.

A poshed-up bacon and egg roll yes, but the naan, cream cheez, coriander and the chilli jam lift it to a different thing.

A large bowl of Shreddies and a weapons grade coffee.

Puree'd prawn and avocado, mixed together and spread over some smoked salmon which was rolled up Swiss roll stylee. Served on a bed of sliced cucumber with dill and tomato with a squeeze of lime juice.

Microwave sossidge, egg & cheez-flavored food product inna bun. Addictive enough to make me suspect it’s laced with crack.

This. But they were caramel Shreddies.

All summer I've been eating Bircher Meusli, straight from the fridge. Temps are cooling a little so thought I'd have some porridge (exactly the same ingredients but heated in the micro). Still a little warm for warm breakie I think.

Still got some of Sunday's gammon joint in the fridge; couple of slices fried up with eggs cracked over the top, then a spritz of water and a lid on to allow the tops to seal without having to flip the whole damn thing. I know, steamed fried eggs sounds pretty wretched, but it works surprisingly well. Salt, pepper and cayenne. Side of toast.

Coffee so powerful you can still see it when you close your eyes.

No, no YOU were hungover...

I'm hoping I can jump on the breakfast roll outing that our engineering team organise.

Instant coffee and shortbread fingers.

Earl Grey darjeeling, an orange, some dried figs and prunes and then a bananana.

I did this again. Chillies instead of cayenne, but...well, same team, different jerseys.

Today, I are been mostly having Two Breakfasts!

(the second one was technically brunch...)

A bowl of Shreddies and three dark chocolate digestives.
That'll do it until elevenses.

One slice of vollkornbrot and two of ham. It's what I have every non-cycling day: can't be arsed looking for other low-GI combos, and the VKB is utterly delicious, even with fake butter, so it's no hardship. Only fly in the unguent is that either the shrink wrap on the packet is so shrunken that it breaks the corners off the bread, or Super U's halfwit shelf stackers play rugby with it. Or both.

And a large cappuccino.

My first ever Full Welsh.
Laverbread (Bara lafwr), cockles, bacon and scrambled egg on toast.
vg.

Because the place had pretensions of 'fine dining', they had to add the totally unnecessary samphire and pea shoots.
