Monday

153.0 this morning.  Here's yesterday:

• tea with cream
  
• scrambled eggs
  
• canadian bacon
  
• cheese
  
• almond flour shortbread cookies with chocolate-amaretto ganache (4 total)
  
• a tiny bottle of prosecco
  
• boneless short ribs braised in beer and beef stock (a keeper)
  
• mashed cheesy cauliflower
  
• a lot of cashews
  
• 6 chocolate coconut almonds
  
• a teaspoon of honey
  

I was craving salt last night - not entirely sure why, but I ate cashews to help with it.  I wish humans could just do a salt lick, or something. Anyway, I'm still recovering from my massage on Saturday - it was amazing in terms of finding and killing off what was ailing me, but resulted in a lot of reactive inflammation.

I need to get life under control again; with it wonky, eating goes wonky.

For what it's worth, putting ganache on the shortbread was a total success.  It's dark chocolate from a Lindt 85% bar, heavy cream, and amaretto, so it's not very sweet, and just suits the shortbread cookies perfectly. Very rich.
