Sustenance.

After spending yesterday morning starving myself for an operation, then the afternoon trying not to throw up after a general anaesthetic, the only sustenance I got was a titchy and almost inedible hospital meal and a packet of the kids Wotsits.So today when my parents offered to take me out for lunch, thought I'd treat myself to some real food. Sod the diet for another day!

Prezzos did us proud, spaghetti carbonara and stick toffee pudding, Not my usual choices as a) I'm married to an Italian and have spent a lot of time eating real Italian food in Italy and therefore know that carbonara should NOT be made with cream, and b) wheat and I are not the best of friends - but I needed something soft and comforting to eat.

Ooops, this blog is turning out to be centred around food, better redress that balance soon!
