Sunday with Alex Scott: An Affectionate Tribute to My Mum’s Spectacular Roast Dinners | Sunday with Alex Scott

Early Riser or Late Sleeper: The Morning Dilemma
I find it challenging to stay in bed. I have this inherent desire to make the most of the day, especially when I have a day off. I wake up with a burst of energy, contemplating whether to hit the gym or do some pilates. A pleasant morning walk while listening to a podcast adds to the delight. By the time I’m done, it’s still early, and I can indulge in a fantastic brunch or pay a visit to my mom.

Who Joins Me at the Gym?
The gym is usually buzzing with enthusiasm as it hosts a circuit class on Sundays. Everyone there is pumped up and ready to conquer the day. On the other hand, pilates offers a more relaxed and serene atmosphere.

The Love for Sunday Breakfast
Breakfast is undoubtedly my favorite meal of the day. I simply adore eggs in all forms – poached, scrambled, or as an omelette, paired with delectable avocado and spinach. My mom used to take me to a proper café for a hearty fry-up after my training sessions. I embarked on my football journey with Arsenal when I was just eight, and I’ve worked my way up to the first team and even represented England.

Anticipating Mom’s Roast Dinner
Yes, my mom is definitely expecting me. Her roast dinners are simply marvelous. She adds rice, which has sparked some interesting debates on Instagram. The meal is still a grand affair, complete with potatoes, vegetables, and Yorkshire pudding. However, the inclusion of rice stems from my Jamaican heritage on my dad’s side. Now that I’ve been reminiscing about these incredible meals, it’s clear that a visit to my mom is overdue.

Sunday Afternoon Bliss
The best thing to do in the afternoon is to relax and let your body digest the fulfilling meal. It’s also a great opportunity to catch up with loved ones, ensuring that everyone is doing well, and watch some entertaining TV.

What’s on the Screen?
Even when I have a day off from presenting, I can’t completely disconnect. I feel a tinge of guilt and still like to keep up with football. So, I keep the game on in the background, checking scores and staying updated with the latest happenings.

Last Ritual before Bed
Let’s be honest, the last thing I do before bed is checking my phone. Whether it’s replying to emails or WhatsApp messages, I make sure everything is sorted. Then, I set my alarm for the upcoming gym session and finally put my phone away.

Embracing Mondays with Enthusiasm
Mondays are something I genuinely look forward to. I approach them with a positive mindset, ready to conquer the week and excited to discover what it has in store for me. Negativity only leads to a gloomy week, and I firmly believe that attitude shapes our experiences. People often think that my life is all glitz and glamor, but the real joy lies in the freedom of being at home, doing what I love.
