Tears of the Trufflepig by Fernando A. Flores . ‘Tears of the Trufflepig’ follows Esteban Bellacosa as he balances the border of South Texas and Mexico, muddying his Ostrich-knee Wingham dress shoes in the process. It’s the story of extinct animals brought back to life to be eaten by the rich and powerful, cultures returning only to be killed and sold as twisted artefacts, and a whole lot of Herzegovina Flor cigarette smoke. Flores is a writer like few others, blending myth and fiction into an beautiful, earthy concoction, and through his work I have discovered the combined joy/heart ache of Border Fiction, realised that more novels need accompanying playlists and now have a desire to find out what fried Dodo gizzards truly taste like which I’m sure will linger longer than is really healthy. Personally, I’m imagining it’s like a really rich quail. 4.5 out of 5 shrunken heads. . #tearsofthetrufflepig #fernandoaflores #trufflepig #minimonotonebookclub #booksivereadin2020 #booksivedrawnin2020 #booksreillustrated #illustration #bookstagram #houlart #houl (at Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-sYxjBBwwp/?igshid=12i8k1uwo5iqd
Reality Check, how overweight I really am... argh!
Ok so now I have decided on what my posts are going to be about I need a serious reality check to get me motivated. So I took the dreaded “before” pictures.
Before I show you those I want to show you what I USED to be like, and I will hopefully definitely be that person again!
Here is a picture of me OH SO LONG AGO, looking sexy AF and feeling it too! I used to love costume parties and felt amazing dressed up as a 40s army cadet, damn I look hot if I do say so myself!
Right there I was 10 stone and 5lbs. Right now I am 15 stone and 4lbs, nearly 5 stone of fat is now sat around my body stopping me from being the sexy little cadet minx anymore! Now I DREAD costume parties and avoid them at all costs!
Here is what I look like now (deep breath, oh.my.god am I actually doing this? This photo has never before been seen by anyone but me)
There you go it’s done, like a ridiculously humiliating plaster it has been ripped off... ouchies.
Anyhoo, today I have restarted the ‘bulletproof’ diet that I used to love but it’s a tough old cookie to stick to. I have had my buttered coffee and I am about to start on making my tuna salad YUM YUM YUM.
