Do Your Eating Habits Change During The Hot Weather?

[Baby_Sham]

I tend to eat really healthy when the weather is like this. I practically live on salads, with the occasional BBQ thrown in for good measure.

However, this evening I am cooking.... wait for it.... a ROAST!!! :-/

[Baby_Sham]

Last night I didn't eat anything. Oh, I tell a lie, I had an ice cold beer in bed... like a slob!

I think I need to look up some different salad ideas. I seem to have the same one all the time.

The roast is cooking now. I'm sat in the kitchen with the back door open and it's SWELTERING. Honestly, I think I'm having another meltdown.... literally! :)

Why are you cooking a roast? Has it been requested or was it your choice?

[Baby_Sham]

I'm staying with my parents at the moment, and my Mum came home with a joint of pork... that needed cooking today. I thought it would be ok with new pots and some salad/coleslaw, but my Dad said he fancied a roast. God knows why!

[EcclesCake]

Oh god, I'm now dribbling at the thought of some spicy pulled pork and coleslaw.........hmmm.....the weekend menu is coming together!!!!

[Baby_Sham]

Haha! Yes, that would be lovely. Roast spuds and gravy not quite so! :-(

I eat a lot more salad and I'm having salad with some little scallops in a bit or when I can be @rsed to go and cook them. Just woken up from nap and don't feel like doing anything!

Lots of salad here, I don't feel like cooking. Neither of us feel like eating a hot meal.

I don't understand why, when we do a BBQ, we eat so much more than we would normally serve up. The other night we each ate two sausages, a gammon steak and a lamb steak - that's twice as much as normal.

Crikey Boxtops - twice as much as normal???That would be 4 times as much as normal for me - one sausage, or a (very small) gammon steak or a (very small) lamb steak plus loads of veg would be all I would ever eat. People tend to eat far too much first class protein in this country.
