When I woke up this morning, I had a terrible taste in my mouth. Absolutely awful. I had to brush my teeth before I could go back to sleep. Then I smelled it on my blanket, my sheets, my clothing. It was everywhere. My initial guess that it might be related to my recent decision to cut back a bit on the volume I eat until my butt gets back to normal, and thus possible increases in fat metabolism, seems unlikely. Marginally more likely is that the foul aspartame in the metamucil I mispurchased is polluting every fluid my body manufactures. Other possibilities include “sick smell” from my recent bout with whatever it is that’s been making me cough and sneeze so inconveniently or “drug smell” from all the painkillers I was taking (I took a 24 hour hiatus from all such meds, and am now taking only ibuprofen.) I’m guessing sick smell.<\/p>\n
So, I’m doing all my dirty laundry today, which is quite a pile, but so be it. <\/p>\n
Also, the spaghetti squash with homemade mushroom and spinach marinara has helped with the taste factor. Quite a bit. *pats self on back* I would swear this is the first time I’ve had spaghetti squash, but the way it shredded into little strands so automatically felt familiar. It definitely looked neat, pity it tasted so bland. Better nutrition, ambivalent taste, more time consuming to produce, more expensive. Neat as an experiment, but unlikely to start a trend in my cooking. <\/p>\n
I still wanna try breadfruit, though. It sounds cool. And the phrase “breadfruit pudding” keeps dancing through my head. Heh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
