The food has been less than noteworthy, of late, which leaves this elegant sufficiency blog rather bored. My vegetarian restaurant next to the office has been closed for 2 full weeks out of the 3 that I have been back at work. A real drag, since I used to get lunch and bring it back to the office so I could chat with friends during the 2 hour break. Instead I went to a vegetarian restaurant about a half mile away, run by hari krishnas. It was tastey food, but rather small portion sizes, and the walk took almost all of the free time away from the 2 hour break, once I had gone, eaten, and come back. I went to a restaurant up the street all last week. Meat-heavy, but at least it filled me up, and it was cheap. But last week I began going to the pool during the lunch break, swimming half a mile - a kilometer, depending on my energy level, and eating was squashed into the 15 minutes in between the time I got back from the pool and 2:00, when work begins again. I have no trouble finishing lunch in 15 minutes, so no biggie.
"Fish fillet," rice, beans, platano, & a slice of cucumber with a slice of onion for a "salad" = lunch
Arepa raw material. Mmmm Mmmm good.
