It's well and truly winter now, and this long weekend is wonderfully cloudy and rainy and cool. I've been hankering to make curry for a while now, and yesterday I was looking through the Jamie Oliver book for the ingredients. The book opened up at the breakfast section, and I contemplated something different for breakfast. Frozen fruit smoothies didn't appeal! Varying the style of comfort porridge, though - that was more like it. I decided against the banana and whisky option (church this morning, after all) and opted for the dark chocolate and marmalade version. What a way to start a day.
Just before the porridge is ready (I use 1/3 cup oats, a couple of teaspoons psyllium husks, 1 cup water), stir in a heaped tablespoon of marmalade and a couple of pieces of shaved/grated dark chocolate. I still included goji berries, ricotta and protein powder too. This was amazingly delicious, and satisfied my desire for marmalade without having toast as well. Win. It feels a little decadent to have this
every Sunday, but I can see it making a regular appearance.
Today's Daily Photo:
I neglected the last couple of days, mainly because of the photo overload from the North Queensland trip (
Day 1 and
Day 2). Walking down Ann St today after church, I noticed the moss on the retaining wall next to All Saints' was particularly green. I love the combination of green and grey, especially when the world is awash in these colours.
