Muffins and Bananas

The London weather once again conspired against our cycling trip to Hampton Court Palace this Tuesday, so me and Klara decided on wellness/fitness/decadent debauchery day instead.

We shopped for goodies, roasted a pork shoulder with sweet potatoes and set it aside, brought home a bottle of bubbly and ingredients for a pie...

(I had my mind set on making a paleo gluten free cherry pie, but since we couldn't find any cherries, we made gluten free coconut-almond-blueberries-mango-chia seed muffins instead.. Logically..)

So after a crazy-ass(literally) session at the gym, we could just cycle home and reap the pleasures of forward-planning. Meaning carnivorous indulgance, hot from the oven muffins, sparkling wine and Royal Tenenbaums on the projector.

I also seem to be weirdly finding bananas everywhere. Bananas in their pyjamas. In the gym on Tuesday, and one on a train today. Nice bananas too. And me being faithfully cheap, I just take them and eat them all.

I wonder what it is life or destiny or the almighty Fox is trying to tell me this way. Bananas..are..full of fiber? Fiber helps get 'things moving'...maybe I need a help to get things moving?
