Day two…flaxbread
So this is day two. I've done a bit of shopping, I bought a cabbage yesterday, broad beans and peas. That bread I made, I do have to report that that one whole loaf I made I polished off! For my lunch I have some beef but no stock, so what I did was put a little bit of wine and some leeks, and a bit of garlic and a load of mushrooms with peas and onions. So I've got all that cooking, and then I thought of adding flaxseed which I tried grinding unsuccessfully, and a handful of oats to thicken it. It looks nice colour, and I'm just going to let it cook very slowly and that will be my dinner for tomorrow as well, so I'm quite excited about that.
I woke up this morning feeling a little bit dehydrated, but I think that's due to all the flax I ate yesterday, so I'm going to expect something a bit similar for tomorrow - but it tastes so good!
My sinuses were feeling a bit sore this morning, but again that could be because I was dehydrated, although I did eat dairy yesterday, so I’ll cut back on my dairy today.
So far it's good, nothing really to report. Felt a bit drowsy/vacant when church had finished but I did cheat a tiny bit because to go totally off caffeine from used to having two mugs in the morning to nothing could be dangerous, especially when I'm driving so I did have one cup of coffee this morning, but I am trying to wean myself off that, so let's see! I'm going to get myself a yarrow tea or a meadowsweet tea and then cosy up on the sofa with Jessie (my cat) because it is throwing it down outside!
