Posted on October 8, 2009. Filed under: Eats | Tags: |

I *know* what better choices are, but making them when I’m tired is never simple. Yesterday, I spent a large chunk of the day sitting at the computer, getting my new blog ready for the transfer of old posts. I ate breakfast, but not a speck of anything else until I was done and offline. [...]
