Day after fast

Eastside Road, September 28, 2011—
WE TRY TO EAT normally the day after a fast day. I mean, I think, well, let's have an extra piece of toast this morning, we were so good yesterday. But then I don't do it. So here's a typical Day After Fast:

Breakfast: as usual, a slice of toast with honey, two cappuccinos. Well, three this morning, because the coffee is so good. I roasted it day before yesterday: two days seems the optimum delay. There's enough for another two or three mornings; then the cycle begins again.

Dinner: Penne al pesto, as I promised you yesterday. Green salad. There may be more fruit before bedtime: we picked about forty pounds of apples this afternoon. And there are two more melons in the icebox…
