1 x mug of Earl Grey tea with soy milk; 2 x soy flat whites; 1 x medium Granny Smith apple; 1 cup x berry muesli with soy milk; 2 x slices dry raisin toast (homage to Paul); 2 pieces of mince lamb pie (thank you Ensaff!) with rocket salad (balsamic and olive oil dressing); handful of pitted prunes; 750 ml of Gaudianello mineral water; handful of raw almonds.

I love working in a place where colleagues are amazing home cooks who charitably bring in leftovers, everyone loves sharing sweets, where we all make crazy strong percolater coffee and we are situated amongst some of the best multi-cultural grocery stores in the inner west.

I stayed with my sister who has just had her baby and is now on a diet to get back to her normal weight pre-pregnancy. I got a text message when I left work to forewarn me of the lack of sugary, full-fat, high calorie snack foods which she knows need to be in ready supply for my survival, I told her that I would not be needing any of these. Of course once I got to hers I was famished, so I had – 2 large oranges, handful of sugar-free caramels; 2 x Lean Cuisine ready-meals (so lean, you have to have 2 to make a normal meal).
