Food for us and Ekatarina.
Weather has been poor again today.
Local news tells us of flooding in various places in Sussex and Surrey.
It has been a day to stay at home.
Bill felt quite fragile with his sinus/cold infection.
I suggested he try a more dairy free diet - cow's milk is prone to be mucous forming.
This morning he had rice milk on his cereal - no complaints.
I had cereal too - a wheat free/gluten free muesli.
Today's blog is about food.
I had taken a series of photographs of Jessica making herself a breakfast sandwich; so, I decided to do the same with Ecky.
The day before we had bought her a red chopping board for her to arrange her own food on.
Ecky just has ham in sandwich - Jessica had added cheese.
Ecky didn't cut it into any fancy shape. 
She carried her sandwich through to the table.
But was soon too absorbed in a book to think about sitting down to eat!
You may notice the title of this book - "How to Handle Grownups" 
Sardines with garlic, chilli, parsley and lemon.

That was for the time before she reached an age of double figures, maybe.

I think I could have done with something like that as a girl.
Back to food in our house.
I thought I would share with you the beauty of a meal I bought in Sainsbury's yesterday. It was a special introductory offer.
Sardines with garlic, chilli, parsley and lemon.
It looks so appealing.
The taste was very good - but sardines are fiddly, trying to avoid all the little bones.
