Well the first few days have been a success. By success, I mean that I managed to eat everything completely local, and didn’t die. Working with the limited variety of food that is available in Ottawa this year, my meals for the first two days have consisted of oatmeal with maple syrup for breakfast, apples for lunch, scrambled eggs for dinner, and cheese for snack. Now, this isn’t a lot of variety at all, and the effects of that have started to show on me. Never before have I been so fed-up with the smell of fresh baking bread, or a pizza in the oven, but knowing that I will be trying not to eat them for the next few weeks makes me go almost insane. There have been some moments where I am about to grab something that looks really good to eat, but then remember that I am not supposed to. I guess I’ll just see how things come along. I might break eventually, so maybe I’ll have one meal each week that isn’t local, after all, I do need to eat bread eventually to keep my health up.
