An unexpected shift to put in at work.

On a Saturday.

Hey ho. 

Let's have a treat in town to start the day ..

Breakfast at https://oleandsteen.co.uk/about

Not cheap but, my word, what they serve up is absolutely the business.

I'm an early arrival and there's one thing on my mind ..

Ham & Cheese Toastie or as they say in Danish ..

Skinke & Ost Toastie

Focaccia filled with dry cured ham, mature Cheddar and Dijon mustard.

A pot of Peppermint Tea on the side & I'm all set.

That fusion of the soft & melted cheese with the salty ham was fantastic. Comforting, too. I could barely stop eating it as I tried to read my paper. Both elements were encased in that delicious bread which had a slight golden crisp on the outside but, on the inside, the dough was as soft as a down pillow. 

The mint tea was the perfect refreshing accompaniment.

I sat back for a few minutes &, from my prime window seat, watched London Town slowly wake up after a Friday night out.

Bet I'm having a better beginning to the day than you, I thought.
