Playing life by ear.

Crumpet!

First day of eating with only one pound a day.
Breakfast:
I swapped the crumpet and jam project for small pasta floating in a veg. water. It wasn’t as bad as I had imagined. I’ll try to get the crumpets ready for tomorrow.
Lunch:
Pasta and bean soup. It good, but I would have enjoyed a sprinkle of parmesan cheese and some fruit afterwards.

I cooked the crumpets using an improvised crumpet ring made out of foil and paper clips. I made 4 days’ worth and it was really difficult not to gobble them down right there and then, all slobbered in homemade fig and apple jam.

This is definitely raising my awareness of how difficult it is to survive on so little food. During the day I was reminded of so many non-essential items that I usually buy without thinking.
