Day 201:<\/p>\n
I’m fishing a lot, like I said yesterday, which also means I’m roasting fish for dinner a lot. It’s a nice break from the ducken I was eating pretty much all the time.<\/p>\n
But I’m noticing that fish just isn’t very filling.<\/p>\n
I mean, when I got here, it saved my life, so I’m not knocking fish. When it comes to “easy to catch, easy to cook” fish is the way to go.<\/p>\n
But if I eat ducken, I seem to stay full for a lot longer, and get a lot more done before I get the shakes from not eating. (Hey, it’s easy to lose track of time in the caverns.)<\/p>\n
And if I eat steak, which I don’t do very often because I don’t like killing my cows, I stay full for even longer than that. The meat holds pretty well down in the caverns, too. But then that could be the whole “lack of microorganisms” thing I mentioned yesterday, too.<\/p>\n
Hard to tell without a microscope. Not sure I have the skill to make one, or the knowledge to know what I was looking at if I did.<\/p>\n
Anyway, I’ve been eating a lot of roasted fish lately and it’s good, but not very filling. Goes well with mushrooms, makes a nice chowder with the potatoes, carrots really aren’t a good pairing for fish. \u00a0Got tired of fish sandwiches pretty quickly. If I’d found a source of oil for cooking (other than ducken fat, which makes the fish taste like ducken) I might’ve figured out fried fish sandwiches, which might be good. But plain fish sandwiches are really dry and stick in one’s craw.<\/p>\n
That’s the dining report. Now to get some sleep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
