Prof. Molten is one of the most wonderful professors I have ever had. Considering how many professors I've had and how much I talk about them, this means a lot. In addition to being kind and sharp, she is also a scone lover and tea snob. Naturally, I had to recommend the biscuit stand at the farmer's market. She tried it out last week and loved it.
Moi: I keep thinking though, I can't have biscuits every week. At some point, I have to stop.
Prof. Molten: Why can't you have biscuits every week?
Moi: It's a bit excessive, no? And probably not good for my health?
Prof. Molten: I don't think so.
Moi: Really? If you say it's OK. You're a public health authority (she really is).
Prof. Molten: You can have one a week. And you walk to and from the market, right?
Moi: Yes. Those 7 minutes of walking burns everything off. I am so eating biscuits now.
With Molten's blessings, I went back to the biscuit stand this morning. I also may have had biscuits with brunch yesterday. But it was in a restaurant and served on a plate, so that doesn't count. Today's offering was a jerk steak biscuit sandwich. I health-ified it my adding my own mixed greens. It was a total public health overkill.
