Best Banana Combo

I´ve pretty much been having the same lunch last month or so, chopped bananas mixed with chopped tomatoes and maybe some greens and sometimes some pineapple. All jammed into my lunch box (a BIG lunch box). And it is truly amazing - this is just THE BEST combination EVER (or, at least right now)! Instead of getting tired of the same food every day - I just want more of it!! I´m looking forward to lunch break actually - so that I can eat my banana-tomato-combo. And, it´s getting worse, I can now feel cravings for this combo IN THE EVENINGS as well. So that I find myself eating banana-tomato for lunch, and then, banana-tomato for dinner. :)

Another great combo is banana-cucumber, or, to make it more funky, mashed super ripe bananas (or mixed) as a soupe base, mixed with chopped tomatoes and MAYBE some fresh basil... soooo nice.

Now this is real interesting. You know in the world out there - people are having so much trouble planning or figuring out what to eat, for dinner or for lunch. It seems to be a REAL issue for alot of folks. Well, not for me. Not right now anyway - I think I could eat banana-tomatoes ALL DAY, no problems. Maybe some melon for breakfast... but usually when preparing my lunch in the morning - I just have to snack on some of my lunch... so I could probably have it in the morning as well... It just doesn´t get boring. My cravings for this combo has instead INCREASED. And the best thing - it´s just so simple and easy to prepare and to eat - just beautiful.

Did a quick Hemoglobin test the other day - 150 gr/L!! Not too bad.... the lady doing the test said that if you´re doing a skiing competition and you´re a female, you are not allowed to participate if your Hb is 160 or above... they will think you´ve done the Epo-thing. Now, I´m not a professional cross country skier... but it´s interesting I´m almost doing illegal blood counts -- ON EATING ONLY FRUITS. One of my test results were actually up to 155 gr/L... Doing some new blood work next week, will be very interesting to see...

Talk to ya´ll then - hope you had a beautiful weekend :)
