Oh joy! JUST what I didn't need! A kind of land mine field
of food to negotiate! We bought sausages for DH, bread and
olives for us all, herbs (well, no harm in a large bag of
Provençal herb mix: I use that all the time and had run
out earlier in the week!), pate, and cheese (secreted away
for guests at the start of May!).

Trouble is that I cannot resist good bread... I went well
over points on this amazing Provençal bread with olives
and anchovies in it!

Oh, well - zero point Singapore soup for lunch today! And
Sunday Dinner is roast lean pork, dry roast spuds and
fresh veg: no dangers there!

Bakery items, especially fresh baked bread, are often my
weakness too, after ice cream.

One indulgence doesn't determine the end result. And not all
indulgences are evil, even if they taste that way. Your menu
for today sounds like just the ticket to get your taste buds
back in line. You'll be fine.

I'm ok - just used up all today's points, and all
yesterdays, plus a few spare I had hanging about... I
usually have a few spare, so no great harm done. I'll just
have to make sure I walk it off during the week!

Well, when I saw it, I hoped the stall with tagines would be
back, but it wasn't, so I just bought food! I occasionally
have a nibble of the sausage (which I love), but not much as
it tends to be so high in fat. I counted the bread as if it
was ciabbata.

Oh, I know - and it was shoooooh nice!

That Singapore soup was excellent too: I made a big pot -
double quantity - thinking that it would give me some for
during the week, but we each had two big bowls for lunch
(along with the rest of the French bread!), so there is only
one more portion! I shall have to get another savoy cabbage
and some more leeks on the way home tomorrow... and another
red onion!

I love fresh, warm yeast bread, also.
But..................chocolate, sigh. Hershey has a new
candy bar thingy - chocolate in the shape of a Pringle
potato chip. Comes in a little single serve container like
Pringle chips
do. Each "chip" just fits in your mouth, lays on your
tongue and slooowwwly melts. I try to avoid at all
costs. Especially after I discovered I can't eat
just one ;>😉

Southend must have bought all the tagines then - there were
loads in all shapes and colours... I was so tempted, but
actually only managed to purchase a new purse from the
handbag stall (an exact duplicate to the one I bought at the
"same" market in Ostend a couple of years back!

I just got the cookies and snickers bar, and for chocolate it is excellent,
six points but comes in two pieces, for those of you who like cookies it is
a potential danger food, and if you like snickers it might be a way to get a
similar taste without setting yourself off on a binge. I am not much of a
candy eater because of my job but I try everything I sell at least once.
This one is well worth the points. Lee, looking for those chips from

I believe the hershey *chips* are called Swooshes or
something similar. They come in a little canister type
container. I looked at them but put them back. They sound
good but I thought it was going to be one of those things I
wouldn't be able to control. I forget the nutritional
content, but seem to recall I figured 1 point per one or
two *chips* .
