It’s Anzac day. I did my grocery shopping in the afternoon and spied some steak and prawns and thought “I’ll have that for dinner”.
Easter 2020 has seen a bit of weight gain with all the carbs in the form of hot cross buns and chocolate.
It feels like an age since I last wrote here on Random Yummy. I think it’s been longer on Yummy Lummy. I even missed last week on What I think, eat, listen to, and watch each week (the diary blog).

This morning I woke up and looked in the fridge and spied a block of speck. For breakfast, I’m eating a block of pig fat and I couldn’t be happier 😃🐖
I’ll be heading into work later this morning. I woke up early to check out what e-mail had come in overnight at work.
I thought I would share how my routine starts and how I centre myself digestively each morning, especially on a Sunday when I want a little peace, quiet, and relaxation rather than a weekday morning which can be a little rushed with making lunch and doing everything to get to work by 6.15.
