Three cuddle delicatessen: indulge, with intelligence

I try to impose to myself to avoid shopping when I am hungry, because the eye eats faster than the stomach: this is a common sense rule.  Shopping is a careful and wise balance between yearns and reason. Shopping is a battle between what is necessary and what the shop wants you to do, that is to say spending in a state of rational suspension. Making a rational list is then the first step, the second step is never ignore the offers, but never fell in their net. How is possible to conceal offers and individual demands? My opinion is that everyone should draw a list of desired things, and when the offers arrive it is time to satisfy that specific want. The chance to restrain the pleasure principle is also deeply helpful to understand why sometimes we are subject to involuntary impulses. Instead of releasing without thinking our uncontrolled instinct, we should better  wait: buying goods gives us the impression that money is a form of power on reality. When we start mastering this false impression, then we can use in a less dispersive way our resources and concentrate our efforts to specific wanted goods. 


Breakfast without Tiffany:
dorset cereals® are incredible real muesli, 
appetizing even for Swiss people,
it is up to us to mix them up with yogurt or milk,
and fruit seasonal fruit. 
Delightful with the strawberry creamy
Tesco finest* yogurt: soon
I shall pick up the yogurt argument.



Pasta: three formats ravioli with pumpkins (fresh egg pasta), 
penne rigate and fusilli (bronze die pasta by Napolina). Plus 
an Tesco Organic balsamic vinegar from Modena:
with this ingredient you can actually
prepare an excellent reduction to glaze the ravioli. 
I shall come back again to this ravioli, for sure.



This Irish whole-weat soda bread is incredible, traditional,
but not predictable,
because of its simplicity (yeast free), its taste (intense), and its quality,
although I do regret the use of preservatives.
The Parma ham is guaranteed by a severe consortium:
it is the Italian answer to salmon and it melts in your mouth.
Finally, an unsalted Tesco butter 
churned using sweet organic cream.
