The book recommends that when you get hungry, you eat some of the leeks themselves in addition to the broth. What a treat, let me tell you. I wasn't even tempted to eat some of Chris's famous blueberry pancakes at our staff breakfast. Really. I savored my leeks. I was proud of myself for completing the diet. Then I started reading the sequel to French Women Don't Get Fat. The author points out that silly American women sometimes eat the green part of the leeks and throw out the nutritious white part. Oh, so ridiculous...except this is exactly what I had done. So much for my triumphant detox. For my trouble, I hope that eating the green part worked the same magic.

Gag. I'm excited to eat all your food and drink all your booze at the reception. Margaritas AND hurricanes?! I hope the photographer is staying for the reception so I can see how much fun we all had. The other day, I told Josh we should go back to Nola soon so I can get a decent meal. And I was serious. Onion-flavored water. Gag.
