thank you.

finally, someone who likes to eat.

i like that as a breakfast salad, israeli-style, with a little dill, next to a couple of fried eggs sunny-side up, an a pita bread.

the thing with cukes is that they are pretty bland on themselves and i'm looking for a veg that has more kick to it-- like a savory watercress.

maybe arugula? what the british know as "rocket". it's got a reputation of being snob food here in amerikkka, but i'm willing to risk my rugged image for good taste.

the thing is, i have eaten that before, but i can't recall the taste-- wikipedia claims it's "peppery" and that begins to lift the fog of my mind.

cut me a break here, i went to sleep at 6am and had to get up at 830. it would be a pleasant buzz if i had a chauffeur.
