i can't even get one together.























Oh man, the lack of caffeine around here is beginning to suck, look at that post title. Maybe one will come to me.

Not something I ever would have known, but one wakes up rather hungry after not eating since 6pm the night before. Hungry yet unpleasantly bloated. WTF. And fucking stinky, remind me to elaborate maybe (oh right, I elaborated already the last time I did something like this).

Nonetheless, we continue to press on. This was my late breakfast today, it looks scarier than it is. I probably could've added even more of the foods I'm trying to eat (tiny cubes of granny smith, kiwi, or beet), but as it was it was really really good and something I never ever would've made without this diet. So, thank you, you bastardy stink-making bloaty insomnia-exacerbating piece of shit detox diet.

And remember, why does everything have piles of raw onion in it this week? That's right, to remind us we're alive. And because we're still living alone for another four days or so.

not sure this is the best place to post this – given the difference in the original post date and now, but finally getting around to reporting back on making this – it took time to get all ingredients in house simultaneously, actually make it, and finally report back (summer trips, back to school, etc.). So here is the report: might tasty sure nough – I support the ‘thoroughly repeatable’ tag - especially given how easy it is to make (once you actually get to it). However; with the delay I forgot to try adding the toasted flax seeds until the last few bites – but based on that brief exposure I would say that it would make a very acceptable addition – not a game changer in either direction.
