Food of late has been rushed and minimal- I seem to be getting sick (again!) and have lost my appetite.. not great for a food blog! But I did finally have the time to get the photos I have taken off my camera, here are 3 breakfasts, 3 lunches and 3 dinners. What a nice coincidence!

I'm not a big fan of oats but I love the creamy taste and the way they warm you through and fill you up so I've been experimenting with steel cut oats- they've got more texture which I love & taste beautifully nutty. They may take longer to cook but boy are they worth it!
