Insomnia vs. Creativity: Or, the Slow, Sweet Decline
I couldn’t sleep.
I thought perhaps I was hungry, so the strangest craving hit me.
Seriously: Me. A can opener. Standing at the sink.
Drinking diabetes never tasted so good.

Why? Because Condensed Milk Is The Best Stuff On Earth.
I figured I had all this energy (high-octane milk will do that to you), I might as well write a blog entry. So much energy, so much brilliance zipping in my brain.
Then this happened:
For 15 minutes, I stared at this. Well, the first 7 minutes was staring. The next 4 minutes was spent trying to keep my eyes, heavy, heavy eyes, open. The next 4 minutes after that, well, I don’t remember. But all of a sudden, 15 minutes had gone by and there it was.
Insomnia. Cured.
Haven’t eaten condensed milk out of a can since I was a child. Am not ruling it out though.

It’s pretty good trip down memory lane. Plus, I’ve been experimenting with condensed milk to re-create the chai tea from this Tibetan place in NYC…it’s the closest I’ve gotten.
