A Few of My Favorite Things

Its day six of my fasting.

Actually, its not as bad as I thought it might be!
The mornings are easy since my body has mobilized "deep" reserves over night and my blood sugar level is OK.
The afternoons however are much harder. Blood sugar is low and the hours really drag by. It doesn't help that without food, there is no shopping for food, waiting in restaurants, no cooking or kitchen cleanup, minimal toileting and likewise, minimal tooth brushing.

So the day is mine to contemplate things - from sunrise to sunset!
And I thought Id share some of the many things that go through my mind these days....

BBQ
Steak, Chops, Sausages wrapped in a slice of buttered bread with ketchup, Chicken Breast with Brie, Marinated mushrooms, zucchini, bell peppers...

Roasts
Roast Beef, Lamb with mint sauce, Turkey, chicken, pork, duck, potatoes, pumpkin, beet, carrot... actually just about anything!

Sushi
Ebbi, Sabba, Salmon sashimi, California roll, Gomae, Teriyaki chicken, and so much more...

Snacks
Fresh french bread with butter, Toast and vegemite, grilled cheese and tomato on toast, good sharp cheddar cheese, Swiss cheese and ham sandwich, roast beef sandwich, humus and pitta, Corn chips and Babaganoosh, ...

Fast Food
An Ozzy "Burger with the lot" including fried egg, beetroot, and slice of pineapple, Doritos (cheese), Twisties, Rum-n-Raisin chocolate, Violet Crumble bar, McDonalds egg McMuffin (I'm not proud of it but its true!)...

Other Stuff
Latte, Coke, milkshakes with malt, Greek salad, Spinach salad, Baked potato soup, Christines "birthday beens", Cajun pork ribs...
