[Food] Guest Post: Georgina Does Breakfast

Hey! My name is Georgina and I blog at www.georginadoes.co.uk. I am guest posting for Cathryn here today and I decided to write about something I am constantly thinking about – Food of course! If you follow me on twitter then you will know this, it’s all I tweet about haha.

Before I started getting up early every day and working in London, I rarely ate breakfast, I was never hungry in the morning and there was nothing interesting to eat at home anyway. 

When I started working I didn’t think it would be any different in regards to eating breakfast but I have seen that if I want to be alert and awake for my hour commute and actually getting some work done every day I need to eat in the morning. Its crazy the difference I have seen in in the way I feel too – I have so much more energy.

They provide toast and jam at work in the kitchen and it just smells heavenly. I would love to be able to eat it every morning but it just gives me such bad indigestion and acid reflux that I just isn’t worth it. Instead, I pop to Waitrose every morning and buy whatever I fancy – much more exciting than raiding the fridge at home for an old piece of fruit. 

Usually I will get a yogurt, although sometimes I get weird cravings and turn up at work at 9am with a giant chocolate milkshake or a frappe. That happened twice this week when I discovered the new chocolate frappe from Pret. Its my new favourite!

For the weekend, breakfast is more of an actual outing rather than a quite bite to eat. Fry ups make me feel a bit ill and stodgy although I do love one every now and then. My favourite cooked breakfast has to be Eggs Florentine.  I think that the fact that it is impossible to find them done well anywhere good in Essex makes them taste all the better when I finally do find somewhere in London.

As with the toast, I’m not a huge fan of the muffin part but the hollandaise, oh my, when it’s good, it’s the most delicious thing. I also love my eggs to be super runny and pour down the side when I burst them.  Delicious!

What is your favourite thing for breakfast? 

This post has been scheduled in advance as I am currently taking two months maternity leave from blogging to be with my baby. All comments will be answered in time, thank you in advance for being patient.
