I was indeed born and raised in Dublin. Gaelikaa - I am sorry to make you homesick, but glad it brought your mother closer. I was indeed born and raised in Dublin.

I'm watching this again and again. I'm a bit homesick and the sound of your voice is lovely. And you know what else? You remind me of my mother. Really. My mother gave birth to me when she was 22 so we are actually close in age. And you are a Dublin woman for sure - I thought you might be from N.I. but you have the most beautiful, cultured East coast Irish accent! Not, that N.I. people don't sound cultured you understand, they do, but you know what I mean! And as for the breakfast! Healthy! I'm very familiar with cashews, dates, almonds and the like. Mel is sitting here with me and she says you remind her of her grandmother in Dublin. Do you know what? I’m watching this again and again. I’m a bit homesick and the sound of your voice is lovely.

I had Orange juice on my cereal every morning and they brought me fruit at every meal. I was told to drink plenty to clear my system. I said that two sips of cold water was my limit but if they brought boiling water I would drink it by the bucket full - they did, day all day and all night. As you know all liquids are measured, going in and coming out. I don't think they ever came across anyone like me before. Deb - after constant pain for such a long time it is like a new beginning. I am not ready for speed walking yet, but having Elly for company walking stride for stride with me helps. It must be torture for her since like me she has long legs and a very long stride, used to moving quickly. Maria - All my pre-op preparation helped. Darlene - I come from a line of long skinny people. Judy - For years I missed out until I learned about having the orange juice instead of milk. It is good to be back on my own pins. Rhyleysgranny - I love the sound of your hydraulic breakfast! Baino - That mix sets me up for the day. BHB - I killed two birds with one stone, kept to the topic while letting everyone know I was doing fine. Steph - It is good to be up and about again.

Lots of yogurt with dried fruit & nuts. Tom makes oat, whole wheat, rye mixture pancakes with blended fruit a couple times a week. No syrup. They’re sweet enough. We’re foodnerds. I love the lilt of your Irish voice & to be able to see you & be in your kitchen. The Replay sound wasn't broken up.

Absolutely amazing and making progress in leaps and bounds. I am so lazy about breakfast. I can't be bothered setting up dishes of this and that or cooking although a fried breakfast when I am away somewhere is the order of the day as I don't have to cook it. :D I juice four oranges , take a couple of handfuls of blueberries maybe a kiwi or a couple of plums, a banana a tablespooon of ground seeds a small handful of oats and throw them all in the food processor then drink it. Very easy. A hydraulic breakfast if you will. ;) Wow Granny can I just say how well you look. Absolutely amazing and making progress in leaps and bounds. I am so lazy about breakfast.

An interesting breakfast, Grannymar. I usually have cereal with 1/2 a banana and 2% milk. My mom used to have orange juice on her cereal too. I love hearing the sound of your voice and that accent!!

I think it must be that healthy breakfast that keeps you so slender, young looking and able to recover so rapidly. No wonder the toy boys flock around. Yep, you will definitely be the lead dancer in our troupe. You’re looking great, Grannymar.

I am delighted with the breakfast production but even more delighted at seeing you in person. . . so to speak. It looks very much like your surgery was a success. I am so happy for you. Gee, am I bubbling over or what! Oh, you are entirely beautiful and wonderfully sophisticated.
