Woke to another freezing morning and nothing for the sloths lunches so after some negotiation it was off to the bakery around the corner for fresh breadrolls. Mornings are never my favourite time and cold mornings are even worse. What I didn't expect was the barrage of tempting aromas and signs enroute ~ the smell of freshly brewed coffee , the sign encouraging me to warm up with a mug of hot chocolate and marshmallows, the bread still baking and the sign beseeching me to eat the hot roast beef roll with gravy on offer all of this before I even reached the bakers door. It wasn't helping that at this point I hadn't had breakfast. I managed to bypass all temptation and came home and made a banana and mango smoothie with almond milk for breakfast. All good and downstairs to work and await the arrival of the first cherub of the day ~ what's that smell mmmm .... The youngest sloth is cooking himself breakfast and what does he cook himself ? Ham and eggs with the eggs cooked inside edible eggrings made of thick capsicum rounds and though annoyed he had not thought to share I was happy with his version of a "Paleo" breakfast, if the littlest sloth can be convinced there is hope for us all .....
Even more temptation with the local church having a cakestall on the way to school ~ homemade sponges, brownies, biscuits, piklets and slices to lure me off the path that is Paleo. Hooray I made it without giving in to temptation, though if the little sloth cooks breakfast tomorrow and doesn't share he may not like the monster he has to face...
Enjoy your day and I hope you avoid temptation
