09:53 am - Culinary wondefullness *\o/*
You need to know that I am a 'mangiona'. One who eats lots and lots, like six times a day. Breakfast, middle of the morning, lunch, middle of the afternoon, dinner...and midnight, too. So that makes it seven times. Uh-uh. What I want to say is that, apart from a period three years ago when I decided I was on a strict diet because I was a bit overweight, all my life I have eaten really, really a lot. And recently even more, because more often than not I am bored/need food to cheer me up ^o^

Today, I want to present you a meal that literally makes my mouth water, and it's even healthy, wooohoooo!!!


Yes, people. Yesterday for lunch I had oranges. Sliced oranges with a little oil and salt. And crackers to go with it (photo courtesy of my flippin' new camera, folks mine, cool as all shit).
It was so delicious. So delicious.

So delicious.

So delicious.

So delicious.

So delicious.

So delicious.

So delicious.

So delicious.

So delicious.

And even a cook!tard like me can do it!! You just need a coupla oranges (good oranges, though...mmmmmh, juicy, juicy oranges *_*), then you peel 'em off leaving some of the white stuff, slice 'em up and add a little olio extravergine d'oliva and saaaalt. And then you pick up your favourite brand of crackers, and every time you put a succulent orange slice in your mouth, take a bite of cracker, too. You shall die chewing the awesomeness.

Sadly, soon I won't be able to eat my way through oranges anymore, since winter is over here, yo. And oranges are fading away ç__ç
I wanted to immortalize the meal.

I swear I couldn't, either. But then my dad told me to shut up and suck it up, and when I tried it out for the first time, I had to admit it: the salt WORKS ;)

But only if you put a little oil, too :D

Oh, yummy. I love fruit, but I've never tried oranges this way before. I shall have to do that. And hey - I eat 6-7 times a day, too! I have absolutely no clue how people manage on just 3 meals. I'd pass out from hunger if I went that long between eating. :D

When I was on that diet I talked about, I ate just three meals. At first, wow, it was hell >.<
Then I sort of got used to it, and I guess even now that I ate like 7 times a day the reason why I never pick up a lot of weight anymore is because my stomach is satisfied with little portions of food ;)

Try the oranges that way! Absolutely yummi ^__^

I hope you will! I suuuuuure do! :D

And, uum. As usual, I have been doing very little of my time ^__^"
I keep dreaming about a person that I haven't heard from for almost a year, because we had a huge fight. But I dream about her every freaking night :(
I dream that we are together again. It's actually quite pathetic ç__ç

That sounds so totally delicious. I love balsamic vinegar on sweet things...and we eat salt on watermelon, so I can imagine the contrast of flavors is wonderful. Some of those are blood oranges, aren't they?

Yep! It surprised me to discover that some people in the world had no clue blood oranges even exised :X
I love them, they are slightly more bittersweet...yum.
At first I wouldn't believe salt on oranges would work, but it does, it's, as I repeated, deeeeelicious ;)
