Breakfast: Coffee (less strong than usual - as will have to carefully ration it) also black - to preserve milk for ongoing "rolling culture" of yoghurt.


Leftover smoothie


Homemade rhubarb yoghurt - rhubarb from garden - initially tried this last night, was eyewateringly sour - now have added a good deal of sugar, and is now palatable.


Am taking banana and orange to Court (where I will be all day as Court duty solicitor) - no time to prepare anything else.
Photos: check on my potato patch! I may be getting most of carbs from here. Also apple tree (green mass beyond roof) - fruit not ready, but fallers can be made palatable by thinly slicing and allowing to "cure" for a few days, or by pounding, mashing and allowing to dry into a "fruit leather" (according to Ray Mears' Wild Food book).

So you're following the Ray Mears/Squirrel Nutkin man style of eating? Why does everything have to be cured or leatherised? You can still presumably use the fridge, can't you? And don't even get me started on the yoghurt...

I'm guessing you will be quite hungry by the end of today!
