Water, water everywhere and not much else to drink!
I like water as a cold drink, but not all the time. I'm avoiding fizzy drinks for the obvious reasons, and squash because it's not a lot better, but that leaves a void. Hot drinks are fine, I have a selection of teas that do the job. But when I want a cold drink with flavour, without much/any effort, does the healthy eater have any recourse?
Food diary for today:
Breakfast: Last night's leftover potatoes and veg and a slice of toast with peanut butter and jam.
AM: Packet of seedy oatcakes
PM: Soup made with green lentils, carrot, parsnip, leek, swede, kale, fresh lemon juice, turmeric, black pepper and reduced-salt marmite. This was good - proof that you can pretty much hide anything you don't like in a well-flavoured soup!
Dinner: More of the soup with a large jacket potato. Loadsa fibre! 5 squares of dark chocolate, the first for ages! Mug of chamomile tea.
I am not in any way punishing myself by having the same foods at subsequent meals. I love leftovers of almost anything. Flavours develop and blend, and I love to eat food that I haven't just had to make!!

We are big water drinkers, but do like Fentimans for a treat. I contacted them a few months ago to ask which of their drinks are vegan & the only one that isn't is their shandy. We have them now & again when eating out... Do you like carbonated water? Nice with a squeeze of lime juice! :-) xx
