round the bend

DAy 4 of 5, Sunday, USUALLY means lazy & NYTimes & a little food shopping. I hoped to sleep in, I guess I did, I wasn't woken up-just woke up. breakfast was again the pumkin miso, still like it. For lunch ( I ate late) Nishime simmered vegatables-burdock root, carrot , pumkin, fried tofu (?) kombu, It was ok, not my fave, would be good fresh, ... and ate the freakin cabbage fart soup, I wont be repeating that when I make it manually. Now its late & I guess i have to eat the dinner portion, & its the day of 6 items, so that usually excites me, I aint, feeling a bit tortured & edgy. dinner, I think I didn't cook the rice long enough or maybe they screwed it up at the factory, it was dry, & the vegas was soy beans with 5 ingredients, again, when its fresh probably good but this is just kinda blah & grey, not much flavor I didn't even finish it. & Im not hungry either. that must be a bonus...
Oh & went out before lunch to the book store, I had a coupon for a birthday discount, decided to look for a macro cookbook, have been poking around online there really are few. Settled on the Hip Chicks guide to Macro.
Its down & dirty, 'current world macro'. & some fun stuff, I was looking for ( not to buy just to see) the Love, Eric macro dessert cookbook. or a lorna sass macro book, her recipes are always yum, I've used her pressure cooker books. but borders is kinda lame on the selection front. anyway , all that for this tidbit: she noticed that after following this diet for awhile she felt out of balance & discovered that all the diets are written by men & that when she adjusted the Yin (F) & Yang (M) in the diet, & ate less grains & more veg she felt more balanced & happy. VERY Interesting. there are lots of little tips & hints that are not in Michio Kuchi books.happy birthday present to meee.
one more daaaayyyy.. of the boil bags. & PS I don't even think about the booze, or coffee, I haven't had any crazy bowel things like I've read about with detox & this diet, so either its so gentle or I ain't so toxic... BTW so far looks like 5 pds. I haven't been moving though. I dont know where my time goes.
ciao
