As today is January 1st and I have resolved to start eating well once more, today was a complete throwaway. It is Rose Bowl Day and seeing as our team, University of Oregon, played and lost in it, we ate to our hearts content. Brats, buns, beer, chips, dips and brownies and ice cream, we had it all and it was good. Did it satisfy my soul? No, but it did kill the snack cravings!
I need to share that I have a love affair with eggs. Is there anything more satisfying, more ingenious, more versatile then the incredible, edible egg? Yes, that is cheesy, but I was making a chocolate cream pie for my father in law the other night and I kept thinking, how can milk, cream, chocolate and yolks really become this rich, silken substance. Is there anything more satisfying than custard?
Today is a new day, and although I have ruined it with football food, I know that tomorrow is a new start for my eating habits. Because I am a chef I cannot just start eating Lean Cuisines and low fat items: I want foods that are natural, healthy and wholesome.
Tomorrow will be a fresh start: no football, no brats, no junk. Goodnight.
