What I ate on a random Friday.

I remember seeing YouTube videos years ago when people used film what they ate in a day. I always thought those type of videos were so interesting. I thought I would do the same but in a blog post. I took note of what I ate one random Friday at the end of January.

I was up early this particular Friday so after a cup of tea I decided that I would have to eat breakfast. I am not great at eating breakfast so it was just a glass of fruit smoothie and a grain bar.

Friday's are always the best days for food in our house as it's usually when I get the food shopping delivered. It's doughnut day. hehehe I always buy us some doughnuts and they always taste the best on the day that they are bought. Mid morning I started to feel hungry so I got myself a snack, a doughnut of course along with a pint of orange squash. 

I am surprisingly good at drinking throughout the day and always have a glass of squash at hand, either orange or blackcurrant. Years ago I used to love sugary drinks and hated the taste of sugar free one's but now I prefer the sugar free one's and Vimto is my favourite squash. I always thought Vimto was just blackcurrant juice but writing this blog post made me realise that it has grapes and raspberries in too.

Lunch was a tuna mayo and sweetcorn sandwich, grapes and a couple of strawberries. That is pretty standard for my lunch although I usually have ham and tomato or ham and pickle in my sandwich. I found myself with the motivation to make something different and it was nice. I also had another glass of juice.

I had an afternoon of blogging, writing up blog posts for the next week and that is when I tend to snack. I am trying to be a bit more mindful about what I snack on and on this day I made the right choice and had a little orange and when I wanted more I sucked on a few mint humbugs. I am obsessed with mint humbugs and have been for a few months, they might be high in sugar but they have to be better for me than cake or chocolate. I had another glass of juice too.

For tea we had cod steaks in butter sauce with herby baby potatoes and sweetcorn. It was such a lazy tea, everything went into the microwave but it made a change from the battered fish and chips or pizza that we usually have on a Friday. We all ate at different times that Friday. I was hungry by about half five, Becky had hers at about 6pm, Ellie at half six and Stu at about 7pm.

With my tea I had a glass of Rhubarb and Ginger juice that I have recently discovered from Asda. It is so refreshing, I can see it being even more of a hit with me in the summer, I can just imagine drinking it on a hot day with loads of ice.

Later on in the evening I had a Reese's Nutrageous chocolate bar which are amazing. It's Reese's Peanut Butter topped with roasted peanuts and caramel covered in a chocolate flavored coating. I also had a packet of roast chicken crisps and a glass of Bailey's which I was still drinking from Christmas. hehehe

What do you usually eat in a day?
