Day 4

Hurrah! I made it 10% of the way through Lent.

Breakfast: porridge, Cheese Scones (Home made), Hot Black Currant and Apple
Snack: Homemade biscuits
Lunch: Oatcakes and Cottage Cheese.
Tea Time: Split Green Pea Soup; Caulifour Cheese.
Evening: Deuchars IPA, Biscuit.

Charlie and I went out to the farm shop at Wester Carmuirs to see what they had and supplement my veg box which won't last the week. I bought potatoes, parsnips, carrots, honey, oatcakes, butter and apple chutney -which I won't be able to use due to raisins:( Most things were local or uk wide but they had stuff from further afeild too- like lentils). The veg seemed extremely cheap to me. Recommended- its open Wednesday to Friday 10-5pm and 12-5pm on Saturdays.
I was out with Yvonne and Charlie in Edinburgh and suffered the temptations of Holyrood House Cafe. They had scones that maybe I could have eaten. I opted for some water.
I spent much of the rest of the day trying to cook stuff.
IPA is OK though!

Forfiets today: emm maybe £0. Where does baking powder come from? I did some internet searches but it might come from mineral springs. I know Cream of Tartar comes from Africa.
