Gelatine bonus

Apparently Australia is having difficulty getting the hydrolysate version of collagen. 

It's the version of collagen that doesn't gel.

Luckily I can still easily get IQS's gelatin. Not the hydrolysate.

And the bonus is, that if for some really weird reason I don't get to drink all my coffee before work, I can put it in the fridge and I get a nice jelly for afternoon tea.

Check out this link for more info on food, gelatin, collagen. It is not referenced, but use it as a starter.

IQS stands for I Quit Sugar. 
I still add sugar to my coffee.
However I use IQS brand gelatine. 

One tablespoon in
200 mL cup of brewed coffee 

where 100 mL is milk.
Mix the gelatin in a tablespoon of cold water
in your coffee cup first. 

Add the warmed milk. Stir.
Add the freshly brewed coffee shot.
Drink some hot.
Store some in the fridge for an afternoon tea
jelly protein snack. Soft and wobbly and tasty.


Tip:
Cook once.
Eat twice.

Gym Rats & Bookworms.... inspired by Alexandra Franzen.... & Turkish coffee blurt

Yes, yes. My favourite feed.

We get fed in many ways. Well, maybe it's just that I get fed in many ways.


Just back from Turkey. Man that is some fine, smooth, flavoursome food on offer. Loved IT.


I didn't like the taste of the coffee though. However I loved the process of making it. I've adopted it and created a new ritual.



Tip.
Use everything that you love in your life to create rituals to keep you fed. See how Alexandra Franzen uses books to keep fit so that she can feed herself.
