-1˚C today. Hubby and I skipped breakfast and went to grocery shopping by car. We had lunch at the local supermarket restaurant.
It consisted of a salad bar, pork schnitzel with creamy wild mushroom sauce, pickles, and mash. The schnitzel was huge, so we had to skip the dessert! 🍜

I bought chicken steaks, hubby has learned to like them more than beef. We had a little snow, but the ground is too warm, so it's melting away. ☃️
For breakfast: breaded chicken stakes with parsley/rosemary/pepper butter, mash, steamed broccoli and a fresh vegetable side salad. 🍜
