Based on the scales here, my weight is up by a couple of pounds which wouldn't be a surprise due to some richer foods, some oil in restaurant prepared meals and more salt. I'm not going to worry too much, but will cut back on some of the salty/fatty snack items that have crept into my diet.
One of the many things I love about being here is the locally grown fruit and vegetables, including oranges, lemons, avocado, mango and tomatoes. Not only do they taste amazing but it gives me a thrill to talk to the farmer who grew them and harvested them a day or two before we eat them
Best wishes to everyone xx

Sorry, it was only when I read your message that I realised I'd included an avocado in the picture which is on the list of occasional delicacies.... I'm with you, I didn't have any when I was trying to lose weight and only have them occasionally now Hope all is well with you.
Thanks Rosey. Yes, it's a lovely part of the world. Sorry for making you hungry! Hope all is well with you.

We have visited friends near Coimbra and been to Lisbon, Porto and nearby areas a few times. It's a beautiful country. We brought back some souvenir sweet potatoes
