Non-science diet
It’s Birkie brevet season again, and I’m doing the essential preparations for the loop more than one day ahead of time. And by “essential preparations”, I mean fruitcake – sure, I could load up on science diet (Clif bars and the nasty gels and goos which start to get really appealing when I’m 200+km into a loop and just want to get calories into my system without wasting my valuable time chewing, but which are pretty appalling before that point) and go, but nibbling on baked potatoes and fruitcake works just as well and taste better in the process.
So it’s another Moosewood Italian fruitcake, freshly baked early enough to cool, but not so early that it will all be gone before 4-in-the-effing-morning on Saturday.
Yum! Yum! Yum! Yum! Yum!
