How My Diet is Changing

I do still have a few problems eating, so my diet has changed a bit since the stroke in Hong Kong.

Some foods are easy and others are not. Take yesterday, I cooked a chicken for my son and his friend,  and had new potatoes, cauliflower and broccoli with it.  I couldn’t carve the chicken, so he did that, but otherwise everything was fairly easy, especially as I’d cut the cauliflower and broccoli into small pieces before I cooked them.

Baked potatoes can be difficult to eat, but they are easy to cook, as I just remove the eyes and put them in the AGA.

Pasta is easy and for this and other foods, I can always use the fork as a spoon in my good right hand. I don’t often, as you have to have some standards!

I don’t eat much red meat and if I want a steak, I generally have tuna, which is very easy to eat and I also have a simple recipe for this, which is very easy to cook. In fact, I probably have fish at least once a week.

But it is not the great change I thought it woiuld be! If I had one piece of advice, it would be to experiment and find out what you can manage.
