April 30th 2021 would’ve been Captain Tom Moore’s 101st birthday; in recognition and in remembrance of his achievement, a new challenge was announced by his family. They challenged ordinary folk to complete a hundred somethings to raise more funds for The Captain Tom Foundation – ‘whether you bake 100 cupcakes or walk 100 laps – help celebrate Captain Tom’s achievements.’ The official ‘Captain Tom 100’ has now finished, but I’ve challenged myself to write a 100 word blog each day for 100 days. I started on May 1st and when I complete my task, I’ll donate £100 to his Foundation.
Day 23
Brinner – breakfast at dinner time. Tonight we had sausages, eggs and bacon, we had hash browns and potato waffles and a choice of sauces, tomato, brown or mustard. I had mustard. I don’t think I would ever eat this for breakfast, unless out with family or friends at some excellent place which served good coffee too.
Breakfast for me is normally a slight affair; fried egg on half a piece of toast and olive oil with freshly ground mixed spices, or maybe yoghurt with some fruit and nuts and a dribble of honey, rarely much more, but always with coffee.
