I have a new side interest: reading blogs of people doing the "paleo" diet. It's so funny, because they're so similar to the raw vegans, though what they allow is much different: meat, meat, some veg, berries, some starch, cooked is generally okay. As far as doing what they think is natural, and searching for the perfect diet, they are nearly the same. I feel like an anthropologist, wading through the claims of perfect health and all-problems-vanishing. It's true that we can control more than we sometimes think--but far more often, we have no control over things that happen.

In the meantime, I am thinking that a great sandwich would consist of: 80% chocolate squares with a nut butter inside. Not perfect anything, but delicious and not too sweet. Mmmm....
