What I ate Wednesday #1

Have you ever heard of WIAW? "What I ate Wednesday" is basically a post for bloggers to document what they ate.. on Wednesday. I initially spotted Anna Saconne's posts and have since started reading other bloggers posts. If nothing else, it's a brilliant way to get inspiration for what to eat throughout the day. The idea is to blog your meals, snacks and drinks throughout the day.

Because i love reading other peoples so much i thought i'd hop on the bandwagon and join in. Be aware that the chances are that these posts will be incredibly dull. I tend to eat the same things for breakfast and lunch for weeks on end but dinner will be something different every week so watch out for that! As i live at home i have little control over what i have for dinner and therefore no control over the presentation of the meal so please don't judge the nutritious value or presentation of my dinner, focus on the meals i can control!

For breakfast this morning i had my usual bowl of Kellogg's Crunchy Nut. I know it's not the healthiest breakfast but it's bloody lovely. I've never been one to avoid eating breakfast, in fact i usually wake up hungry so really look forward to my breakfast. I don't have a drink with my breakfast but had a glass of water between breakfast and lunch.

I was inspired by Anna Saconne's paninis and am having 2 small toasted pittas with cheese, chorizo and baby spinach. I usually have some cucumber slices and tomatoes with it too along with a glass of water. We don't a toasty maker or grill at work but i've made do and in order to melt the cheese (an obvious must!) i fill the pitta with the cheese and chorizo and then when they're toasted put the spinach in before indulging!

Absolutely delicious.

By 4 o'clock i was peckish! I grabbed an apple with some smooth peanut butter and another glass of water. This snack is my absolute favourite at the moment, it's the perfect healthy snack and a great sweet and salt combo!

Fave snack ever!

For dinner mum had cooked chips (in the air fryer) beans and sausages. She was in a rush this evening so just did something quick, hence the lack of nutrients and vegetables! Afterwards i had a 100% real fruit juice ice lolly which was lovely and very refreshing. 

I also had a glass of milk whilst watching the Great British Bake off and another glass of water before bed. 

How much of a rubbish blogger am i! I forgot to take pictures of 2 of my 3 meals, well you all know what cereals look like anyway! Sorry guys, i will make more of an effort to remember to take a photo before i dig in next week. I hope you enjoyed this post anyway,  i certainly enjoyed eating it all. 

Breakfast at Bill's.

This weekend was the same as most, out in town on Friday night and then suffering for it on Saturday. My friend was home for the weekend (She's at uni) so we decided to meet up, with Saz for breakfast, something i've never done before. I've always loved the idea of going out for breakfast but never got round to doing it, especially as my best friends used to work the weekends up until a few weeks ago so it wasn't really a possibility. 

We decided to go to Bill's in Windsor and then spend the afternoon having a ganders around the town, there are some particularly nice things in the stores at the moment. The Autumn/Winter lines are all out now and i was in a very happy place walking round, unfortunately due to a ridiculously phone bill from Vodafone i was reluctant to spend much money. (If you follow me on Twitter you'll know about that!)

Anyway, off topic! 

The menu at Bill's was perfect, there was something for everyone. I was so tempted by the pancakes with syrup and fruit but due to my hungover state i opted for the Full English. It was your ordinary Full English though, it was a pretty one, the presentation was brilliant and the food itself was delicious. It wasn't disgustingly greasy and the portion size as perfect! Best Full English i think i've ever had. As with any meal there is always a sense of food envy, although it was delicious, i do wish i'd tried the pancakes. I guess it's just another excuse to go again!

Have you ever seen such a good looking full english?

The decor in Bill's is like my ideal for a restaurant like this. It's so beautiful and rustic, the kind of style i want for my own home. The service was pretty good as well, i mean the people serving are really friendly and you get served pretty quick. (they were quite busy) If you guys are looking for somewhere new to go or just fancy a recommendation for somewhere in Windsor (they do have restaurants all over the place though) then i'd definitely suggest trying Bill's out. I for one will definitely be going again. 

Oh, they also had a leaflet on the table for their Christmas Dinner - which you can pre-order and book a table for and i have to admit i was very tempted. It was like £25 i think for a 3 course meal and the choices for each course looked divine, if it was anything like our breakfast it will be good! 

Have you guys ever been to Bill's, what did you think of it? 

Top 5 Pinterest Posts I September Part 1

So I stumbled across a fellow bloggers post about their Pinterest favorites and it inspired me to start doing a similar post on a weekly basis. I absolutely love Pinterest and am always pinning new things, inspiring quotes/hand lettering, fashion or home inspo etc. I also love reading weekly/monthly posts so what better way to combine the two!

These are my favorite posts of September Part 1:
