Put your stomach on autopilot

Time was when I ate only the healthiest foods.  Now I work in a Southern/Louisiana style gastropub and shovel fried foods down my gullet to deal with stress.  Awesome.

But, this weekend I came down with a sinus infection.  Because Momma wasn't there to do my grocery shopping, I had to pick out the food that would sustain me.  It's amazing how the body can just take over sometimes.  Hazy and sick, I was basically on autopilot wandering around Whole Foods.  I didn't buy much, but what I did come away with has satisfied me far beyond anything I've eaten lately.

Maple yogurt and grapefruit.  I love grapefruit.  Apparently, I love maple yogurt.  More importantly, those foods love me, and I can feel it.
