I cooked a ham on Friday -- we have lots of wonderful salty ham in the house. We have fresh strawberries and clementines. We even have cake left over from D's party at the bowling alley yesterday.

And I.... am on a clear-liquid diet until Thursday. It's one thing to be on a clear liquid diet if you are sick and not feeling like eating anything anyway, but if you're more or less healthy...

I had been planning to spend the days out of the house to minimize temptation to snack, but D is home sick today.

I am sooooooo hungry.... lime Jello doesn't help all that much.

Ah - having one of Those Procedures?

I found that I could satisfy some of my mouth-hunger by eating lemon sorbet, which my doctor assured me counts as a clear liquid as long as it's just lemons, water and sugar.

I have rediscovered banana Popsicles, which may be completely artificial, but which I am in love with.

I also found/find it helps to do things like chew gum, and I have used brushing my teeth as a way of keeping me from snacking.

Good luck with the procedure!

I don't suppose vodka counts as a clear liquid?

Good luck with whatever its for!

Hmmmm..... I think martinis should definitely count.
