health bite. (because I know what I'm talking about.)



Hmm... what to have for breakfast this morning? I think I'll see what's in the garden. Is this a vegetable or a fruit? It's round and a pretty green. Well it'll have to do. Is this honey dew? No, it smells too much like squash. Doesn't matter, I'll just steam it and it should taste good.

10 minutes later...

This looks an awful lot like honey dew. Great. I've successfully managed to steam honey dew in water and olive oil for breakfast. Sounds delicious? Oh hang on a moment, this doesn't taste like honey dew. It cuts like zucchini, but it doesn't taste like that either. This squash like substance is kind of stringy. Ah, it's spaghetti squash, unripe steamed spaghetti squash. Doesn't matter, I'll eat it anyway.


This was my morning.

And yes, I did eat the unripe steamed spaghetti squash. Yes, you would think a health fanatic like me would know the difference between honey dew and unripe spaghetti squash. Yes, I'm fine with eating vegetables for breakfast. Don't you ever start your day off with spinach? Sometimes I'll have a spinach shake, aka green smoothie. It's lovely. 
And the moral of the story...
DON'T EAT SUGARED CEREAL! 

(trust me, you'll thank me when you're older, when all your friends are fat and have some sort of disease, but you'll be skinny and healthy and wonder what you did differently, and then remember, Oh, I didn't eat sugared cereal. I ate unripe steamed spaghetti squash, instead.) 
(you're welcome.)

This post made me laugh out loud. Hilarious. I love the way you write. I LOVE sugared cereal. I always have, but after reading your post I had an egg for breakfast. Ha. :)
