The Sincerest Form of Flattery
Breakfast:
vanilla yogurt with banana (sliced), blueberries (washed), drizzled with honey
~2 cups coffee
1 tumbler OJ
Sharp-eyed readers might see where I'm going with this.
Lunch:
PB&J. Chunky PB, strawberry jam.
Prince of Wales black tea - high in tannins.
1 Gala apple
Small bag, Kettle Chips Fresh Ground Pepper and Salt.
Dinner:
"Tuscan loaf" (ciabatta) with roasted garlic hummus
3 Whitbread Pale Ales.
We all talk about how well MMW eats. I decided to try it. All the things I ate were things he's reported, with a few approximations, mostly approved by the man himself. My biggest regret is I couldn't get my hands on any Wolaver's, but I think Whitbread is an MMWish beer. I also meant to have some asparagus steamed in the MMW style, but drunkenness and indifference carried the day.
MMW seems to be the easiest FR to mimic, as his diet does not depend on local restaurants. Submitting your eating to another's taste is an interesting experiment. For example, I hate yogurt. After trying the MMW breakfast, I still do. But the PB&J was surprisingly satisfying. Perhaps we should have a day of exchange, where we plan one another's diets?
UNAUTHORIZED ADDITIONS:
1 tumbler Jameson on ice
1 cappuccino with shot of Jameson
1 Queen Victoria's Titty (blame that temptress Strach)
all of which seem MMWish in spirit.
I tried to get some hot chocolate at Insomnia, but the line was f'ing out the door!

I attempted a similar experiment, to some extent, here. I found it fun, although I realized very early in the day that I forgot to use either of my two jars of honey in my yogurt. I also kept to a not entirely rigid schedule since my social calendar is too busy to perfectly accomodate Matty's relatively domestic lifestyle.
