I am looking forward to Lent to be honest. I do better at so much during this time!


Same as that Patricia, i manage to switch off and just accept that those tempting 'treat's' are just not an option and it definitely encourages me to stay on the CAD plan to avoid cravings as well. Just makes things so much easier. Feeling blessed already.

Happy to report I'm very pleased with my soup making efforts of late.
Made a keto Tomato mascarpone soup from the website i think you had recommended here before.

Made a carrot and coriander one for my RM.
I had been adding broccoli also for the added goodness but i didn't like how it made the overall soup taste and how it ruined the vibrant colour of the carrots. So what i did was to blend the broccoli and coriander/cilantro separately and then kind of fold it in to the carrot base.
Love it now and it hasn't decreased the overall sweetness this way and i love seeing the little flecks of broccoli throughout.
Decreasing caffeine and chopping all my vegetables up small has made the lack of appetite situation better too. Thank God.

A big wind storm is forecast here for tomorrow which will threaten the electricity supply so hope to spend the evening meal prepping.
Its unbelievable we've been having such stormy weather almost every single weekend of February. So many areas are completely flooded already.
Looking like i will need to prep if the corona virus comes to town also; not looking forward to it.

Love the meals your having in your journal Patricia. Cauliflower cheese especially.
