Breakfast: Tell me truly, what do you see while looking at this motley veggie crew? Yeah me too... Guacamole! except of course the coffee... the eggs... the coconut milk, and the light green orb. The latter of which is a "skoos." It's a vine grown gord, tastes like a bland squash but has the texture of a potato and if you handle it bare handed your hands will turn red and burn for a couple hours. It all came out looking more like something you'd get at IHOP in Mexico, but tasting great. I am starting to wonder why I haven't eaten whole acacados for breakfast my whole life... I mean honestly it's the king of fruits... or veggies...
Lunch: I didn't get a picture of lunch because I ate it too fast, it was a light salad with similar ingredients to breakfast but with lemon juice and olive oil vinaigrette. Very nice, and kept me a little bit hungry for the real treat today... Lamb Burger. Dinner: You read correctly. The Hi Spirits Cafe and Bar served up this puppy, I mean lamb with a few no-no's like the bread, a slab of cheese (the scrapped remnants of which can still be seen) and some french fries. The latter of which I cared nothing for, it's not like I spent the first several minutes just starring at them or anything. In the end, the boys ate them. I enjoyed every bite of the lamb though was still a bit hungry in the end but a few almonds and some egg-tomato-onion stir fry at home later filled me up.
I almost lost it today when: I had to buy eight huge packages of oreos, and 42 other small packages of various delicious cookies and watch my family eat ice cream while standing next to a food stand the specialized in french fries, which I don't care anything for by the way. Ah day five, tomorrow I'll have to use two hands to show what day it is using my fingers... a common practice in a house with three small boys, the same boys... who ate my fries... which of course I care nothing for.
I sense some cognitive dissonance.
ReplyDeletewell you were always sensitive to that sort of thing... I will make up for it at California Dreaming when next we meet... la?
DeleteOhh California Dreaming? I want to come! Well....five days down, minus one extra chin and a growing dislike for french fries... I'd say you are off to a good start! Just watch those late night cravings---what are you doing up so often in the middle night anyway?
ReplyDeletecant sleep probably the coffee...
DeleteYeah, thanks, Timmons - I was wondering the same thing! (-Bethany)
