After eating lots of big meals and chocolate when we were away last weekend, I decided that tonight I would be healthy and have a big salad with some smoked mackerel for my tea. Unfortunately I did have to have some salad cream with it but the good intentions were there!

This term at Brownies we're doing the Healthy Heart badge and as part of that we made smoothies this evening. The Brownies all brought some fruit and then chose what they wanted to put in them, there were a few interesting ones - banana and blueberry, and apple, strawberry and melon - although the majority had a strawberry and banana theme!

For Christmas my brother-in-law and his Belgian girlfriend gave us a waffle-maker so that we could enjoy some traditional Belgian waffles. This morning we used it for the first time - in an effort to be healthy I topped the waffles with some chopped banana but then after taking the photo we also added a generous portion of golden syrup which probably negated any health benefits from the banana. Never mind, they tasted good!
