work is crazy right now
food is the only thing keeping me sane
it always is
because i´m afraid i´m loosing it every time i get hungry
driving my bike becomes dangerous, things slipping from my hands, oh so grumpy mood...
.
so thank you dear blog world for a few new soothing additions to my repertoire:
Fräulein Texts SWEET POTATOE CHIPS
(do not let them get brown or you´ll end up like me nibbling the good orange stuff from brown burnt rims)
Heidi Swansons RHUBARB ROSEWATER SIRUP makes an awesome granita (as do those little green melons)
also i´m drying rose petals for her ROSE PETAL GRANOLA
.
yesterday i got sentimental and made focaccia with grapes
made it with my roommate a lot while studying
we tried every variation Jamie Oliver suggested
our favorites were tiny tomatoes + mozzarella and cherries, brown sugar + butter
or stuffed with rocket, onions, gorgonzola, parmesan + herbs
yeast is not that good for my stomach but i just had to eat some
.
any comforting food suggestions?
