Chia seed rolls, cucumbers, hockey and Fixers

It was baking day today. I did my usual recipe for almond flour gluten free keto bread but this time through in two table spoons of chia seeds to the dry mix. The cooking time didn't change and they seemed to come out well. The additional seeds actually ended giving me enough for seven rather than the usual six rolls which was surprising as the volume of seeds didn't look that much.


The good news is that Toni said they were really nice. The idea of the chia seeds was to get more fibre in them which will help with Toni's blood sugar levels. They look great on the inside too:

We harvested some of our cucumbers today, they are delicious! Hand added for scale....

Live hockey was back on at a reasonable hour so it was time to see how the Boston Bruins would fare against Tampa Bay Lightning after their shocking 1 - 7 loss. Tampa Bay were leading the series 2 - 1 so this was time for Boston to even things up. First period ended with Tampa Bay leading 1 - 0. Second period ended with Tampa Bay leading 3 - 0.  This was not going how we wanted. Third period ended with Tampa winning 3 - 1 and also extending their series lead to 3 - 1. Now Boston have to win all three remaining games to progress to the next round.  

If you want to place an online bet on the 2020 NHL Stanley Cup Play Offs just pick any team that I am not rooting for and you'll have a good chance of winning something!

We then finished off Tattoo Fixers before moving to it's spin off show Body Fixers. Following on from a similar premise: people who have extreme, shocking and downright hilarious beauty and hair fails visit a one-stop shop to have their problems fixed by a team of top young professionals 

It's certainly more extreme than Tattoo Fixers was, even gross in places, but is just as entertaining car crash TV.
