Oh fortunate ones, to live in a place where delicious local strawberries are already in the grocery stores ! Tuesday night I had a little problem in that I had to complete the tax filing at the office since some of my papers were there, thus I had no input into the selection of the Chinese food ordered for dinner.  What can one do when the dinner-preparer doesn’t feel like preparing dinner ? Ah well.

So, I ate what little I properly could of what was delivered, (Chinese food is just FULL of calories, not to mention salt, even if there is no MSG), and then went to the fridge and filled a bowl with some of the most delicious strawberries I’ve had in ages. What a delight. Just plain.

Makes me seriously consider going back to vegetarian, if not vegan ! Not that we couldn’t find ways to stuff ourselves and gain weight on any diet, but….. I had almost forgotten how nice it is to eat plain, uncooked, un-”dressed” food. 

Makes me want to see if I can’t make an effort to have more meals that are ultra-unprepared, so to speak. Maybe I’ll try that during the month of May. What do you think ?
