Arete

12 January 2009

This is Day 2 of trying to eliminate dairy from my diet, to see what difference it makes in how I feel. So, here goes:

Breakfast:  Scottish oatmeal with homemade soymilk, coffee with soymilk,
homemade Russian rye bread, with butter(!) and a bit of jam (I think).  1/2 banana, 1/2 apple.

Lunch:  At Farm House in Sebastopol:  The usual 3 poached eggs (laid by our hens), I usually just pick out the whites, with hot sauce. 2 slices whole wheat  toast, with butter(!) and 2 tsps. of Seedless Blackberry Jam. Coffee with non-dairy creamer (I should take soymilk with me, should I go tomorrow). Iceberg lettuce salad with ranch dressing (I’ll try lemon wedges & salt next time).

Dinner: 2 bowls of homemade Pasta e Lendiche soup, with spinach, and kamut and quinoa pasta.  Recipe from “Summer Pasta/Winter Pasta.” Ate with a little leftover home-baked Russian rye bread.
