I FORGOT to eat BREAKFAST this morning.
After my morning coffee-with-soy, I somehow came to believe that I had already eaten my breakfast. Then I was like “why does my appartment smell like cinnamon? Breakfast has been over for a while now.” And that’s when I realized my breakfast was STILL ON THE STOVE, not in my stomach.
This does not happen. Usually, I start thinking about breakfast shortly before bedtime the night before, and do not stop thinking about it until just after second breakfast. This is the one thing I have in common with my friends’ four year old daughter. It is real. It is primal.
So, recipe for hunger-beating miracle coffee:
- Heat 1/3 cup soy milk + 2/3 cup water together
(This way the soy milk will not curdle, curdling being the polite word for the weird breaking-into-a-million-creepy-fragments-and-floating-to -the-surface-before-sinking-to-the-bottom-of-the-cup that most soy milk will effect if added to any other warm liquid.) - Add espresso.
- Drink.
- Don’t forget to turn off everything else on the stove or you could end up eating really mushy oatmeal an hour later.

Befriend:
