Day 23: Autumn equinox eats.

Truth be told, my stomach has felt off all day — not much appealed to me for dinner tonight. I considered celebrating the first day of autumn with some kind of pumpkin- or apple-based baked good, but a sugary dessert didn’t sound like a great idea for an unhappy tummy. I decided to go super simple instead.

I defrosted the last few pieces of Unpork and gently pan-fried them, then served them alongside a big helping of sauerkraut. I also whipped up a quick cornbread, because I thought the mild flavor would soothe my stomach. Unfortunately, it was lackluster and a little too salty, even though I reduced the amount called for. Sigh! Not a very auspicious start to this autumn!
