A Fruity Friday Feast – Breakfast with Princes

If you are on Twitter you’ll have seen lots of fruity tweets with the hashtag #Princesbrekkie – several families have been chosen to receive a Princes fruity hamper to help us incorporate more fruit into our diets, starting with breakfast. The best of it is… it couldn’t be easier!

Breakfast time can be busy (and stressful!) but it really is the most important meal of the day. We decided to use some of our fabulous fruity treats for a buffet-style breakfast where we could explore!

Ready to dive in!

As you can see the fruity experiment was a huge success. Lots of tasting and mixing, fruit with toast, fruit on porridge (Kieran served Daddy a dish with different types), fruit on it’s own or with yogurt…. all washed down with lovely fresh fruit juices.

Any left up fruit has been chopped up and we are having fruit salad for pudding tonight so we will definitely be reaching our five portions a day target! Clearly incorporating fruit into our breakfast doesn’t have to be hard, or difficult. We will definitely be doing it more often.

Thumbs up to Princes!

Dear All

Please be aware that a freelancer is someone who usually doesn’t have a set wage. I don’t get paid a salary on the first of the month, I rely on you to pay your invoices promptly. As much as I’d like to say different, I have bills to pay too.

Thanks for listening.

Dear Facebook

I don’t have anything crabby to say. This will never do! Please do something rubbish so I can have a good moan. Thanks!

Dear Sunshine

Piss off! I know everyone else is really pleased to see you but I am not. I am an autumn winter gal. I have bought boots now, I have jumpers. I am even eyeing up scarves. It is nearly October for goodness sake. Get a grip and give me my comfy cold weather back thanks.

Good boys!
