Since I last posted, I:
• invented the open-faced foie gras-blueberry sandwich.
• spent some time photographing (and eating) fast food for a book.
• spent just as much time playing Draw Something on my phone.
• discovered the ultimate nacho topping combination: black beans, tomatoes, jalapeños, green peppers, green olives, red onions and extra old cheddar. Served with sour cream, Herdez Mexican Salsa and an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
• combined all the week's leftovers into a lunch that made my pants cease to fit.
Not everything I did was unhealthy. I did manage to actually hit a tennis ball a few times on a rainy day when the courts were free. I also ate the BEST BROCCOLI I HAVE EVER TASTED. I know nothing of its origins. But I have tasted the ultimate broccoli. It is sweet, and flavourful, and somehow I found it in the produce section of Save-On Foods in North Vancouver, Friday, March 30 at approximately 11 am. Is it broccoli season? Was it genetically modified? It wasn't even organic! But when I took a bite of the stem, it was as if the clouds parted and the sun started shining, right on my tongue.
