These days my appetite goes for fresh pear for breakfast; even two pears. Later in the morning I have apple juice, yes it's sweet, so eating figs and dates with it doesn't work with me. But putting them into a salad with cottage cheese curds and olives works well with my unconventional appetite. The salad gets also the juice of a lemon, not always: instead of lemon this could be the juice of an orange or grapefruit. Sometimes I even add buttermilk especially to 'sweeten up' the lemon juice.

But the practical idea: everything is freshly made. Later in the day I make fresh carrot juice; that seems to me at the moment the sweetest booster.

For lunch I mixed whole milk, 33% cream, two apples and two raw eggs: as a teenager we had so many apples in the garden that that was my best way to move those apples through my system.

The other day I bought a loaf of freshly baked bread; I struggled with this "freshly baked" for some time; they seem to get the dough from a box and there seems to be no flavout to it.

I should go back to baking my own-as I did some years ago, but where do I get real flour from?

And my baking stove doesnt work either-I discovered last Christmas; so I didn't get fuses or a new heating element; what would I do with a stove anyway other than driving out the nutrients in the food with the ritual of heating UP...
