  • I was busy all day
      and by the night got very hungry...
    Brocoli is good, I thought.
       It destroys cancer cells...
      The right way to cook it
         is to steam it in a skimmer.
    Then I remembered the dry algae.
      It's also good - for the thyroid gland,
    thought I.
      It contains iodine.
       I'd bought cucumbers and tomatoes too,
    as well as pickles.
       Some parmezan cheese was left,
    so I decided to have it - why nay! -
      for it works for the thyroid gland
    in its own way.
      I had some sour cream -
    without it 
     all that 
       would have had
     absolutely no taste - not a bit!
      And boiled an egg.
    Yes, some dill will do me no harm either, thought I.
      And garlic and all...
    
    I started with some granite juice 
      and gradually ate
    all that.
    
    I was so full
      and yet 
    to finish up my meal
       I drank some tea
     and had... well, two or three 
    (no more)
      souffle sweets...
      
    After all that
      I couldn't go straight to bed.
    So I sat
      at 
    my comp
      and thought
    I would work,
      but...,
    as you may guess,
      I had a stomach stress...
    
    All right.
      That's not so bad.
    
    
    It was already late,
      but I started to translate...
    
    P.S. Later I read
    that
     tomatoes and cucumbers
    should not be eaten together -
       they work against each other
    destoying Vitamin D.
    
    I see...
      I'll never do it again.
    A sensational revelation -
      that combination gives one a stomach pain...
