Breakfast: Leftover Sri Lankan eggplant; 1 scrambled egg plus one extra egg white, with thyme (I've decided that my spice rack-- I mean my two spice ranks and large crowded spice shelf that runs the length of my kitchen counter-- is out of control, and I'm going to start adding random spices to things); individual coconut-mango pudding cup. Small, civilized-looking cup of organic instant coffee with half and half. The latter reminds me of traveling in foreign countries, where the cups are smaller and the coffee frequently instant, and makes me happy, even though the coffee tastes like shit.
Evocative.
Lunch: some pieces of parmesan cheese, Liberte caramel yogurt, half a grapefruit.
Shopping (Whole Foods): unsalted butter, 2 packages of chicken thighs, Barbara's Puffins cereal, Barbara's dark chocolate cranberry granola, Tom's toothpaste, 2 lentil dal wraps and 1 chicken salad wrap, piece of gouda, cocoa hazelnut spread (like Nutella but more natural), potato cheddar pierogies, organic hazelnuts, Italian parsley, frozen corn, dandelion greens, 1 green serrano pepper, free-range eggs, yellow grape tomatoes, diced pancetta, big chunk of dark chocolate, a small boneless turkey breast, pitted dates, 2 organic eggplants, 6 organic shallots, 3 organic portobello mushrooms, Cabot "seriously sharp" cheddar, organic firm tofu, 3 russet potatoes, 1 organic yellow onion, 2 tomatoes, 1 red bell pepper, 1 lemon, big box of clementines. $151.
Dinner: lentil wrap from Whole Foods, cut-up mango, clementine orange. Jennifer Reese's homemade ginger ale (while it tasted good, alas, it was not fizzy. At all.)
Snacks: 4 cups of coffee with half and half, 2 regular, 2 decaf. Cup of warm sake after dinner. Small dish of Barbara's Better Dark Chocolate Cranberry granola with 1% lactose-free milk (I didn't care for this product, which didn't exactly taste like chocolate or cranberries, or indeed granola. But I was hungry after a light dinner).
