My work group is moving on tomorrow, to another province, but they havent told us which one yet. I have to use up all my perishables, so that pretty much determines what I eat: everything. First course for supper is a salad of lettuce, alfalfa sprouts, avocado, yellow bell pepper, tomato and sunflower seeds. (I remembered to add the sunflower seeds after I took the photo). Meanwhile I sliced the beets and carrots and put them in the microwave, same as on Monday, except this time I added the water to the plate after I had fit it on the spinner in the microwave, so I didnt spill beet-coloured water all over the place. And this time I knew it was going to take about twelve minutes in the microwave to get the veggies right. So I put them in for eight minutes, flipped them all over and then put them back in for five more minutes.
Except that when I finished my salad, I realized the microwave was still running. I had accidentally set it for 50 minutes, and it had consumed eleven of them, and evaporated all the water. Dehydrated beet chips, anyone? They were inedible.
So I ate a pomegranate. Thats a process a lot longer than that sentence. Pomegranates do not give up their seeds without a gore-streaked fight. Between the beets and the pomegranate, the hotel staff are going to think I slaughtered a pig in here. Okay, done.
