The sun was out, the temperature was up to 6 degrees and we could pretend for a while that spring is around the corner. Its not… but no harm in wishful thinking. But it did energise me into doing 13 minutes on the elliptical trainer.

Breakfast was a Cumberland sausage, scrambled eggs, multi-grain toast and a grilled tomato.

Sunday is shopping day, which was a much more pleasant journey than last weeks icy adventure.Waitrose again. Returning to unpack and then soup and bread for lunch.

Soup and Bread

Dinner was a ‘Try Something New’ with Roasted Duck Leg Confit. These are frozen, and covered in duck fat. I separated the legs from the fat, and stored the fat in the freezer for future roast potatoes. I roasted the duck for 35 minutes until it was very crispy, and served with broccoli, roast potatoes and yorkshire pudding. I didn’t eat the skin,but the meat was incredibly tasty.

This was followed by a piece of New York cheese cake and sugar free apricot jam.
