eating for the sake of eating
It's not really pretty to be able to eat anything and find yourself wanting to eat just for the sake of eating.
I mean, I probably wouldn't have thought anything of it a while back, but now? Now, all I can think is that I don't need this food. I want it, but I could probably survive (right now, anyway) on two meals a day.
This morning I had fried rice - leftover from the challenge - with added Chinese sausage, shallots (green onion), and SPAM (yes, yes, I know), and a dash of soy sauce. It's my mother's fried rice and sometimes we'd have leftovers for breakfast the next morning.
Lunch was angel-hair pasta in the remnant of the ham bone stock that I was going to cook congee in (before I got tired congee altogether), with parsley and pork mince (left over from the challenge), and shallots. Lunch was pretty late because I was waiting for a friend to contact me about whether we were going to dinner tonight (we were going to dine with another friend, but her kids are sick so that got cancelled and rescheduled).
Right now, I can't decide if I want dumplings or lasagne.
An hour later: I ended up cooking egg, broccoli, and a bit of salmon for dinner.
Now I just have to work out why these two sides are fighting a war. *sigh*
