More on the beaver's diet

Well, not exactly. I mean yes, this post is a sort of follow up on this one. It is snowy outside and I feel very much like I need sugar to keep me going, if I don't want to start hibernating out of wintery numbness. I could have caffeine, but I don't like coffee. So I have decided to fall at least partially into temptation and eat stuff high in sugar, like cakes and chocolate. In moderation, if I can (I am somewhat immoderate when I crave something, especially sugar). Sugar keeps me going when I feel tired or sleepy. Sugar gives me endorphin. Beavers must know how to survive in rough wintery weather (they even swim in water during winter), so having a sugar diet right now is a wise idea.

I uploaded this picture from Dropbox. It is a rolled cake that has, like all sweet roulade an uncanny ressemblance to a Yule log. Not too much to be out of place in a blog post written in January. And since it still looks like a log, it is kind of fitting. In fact, this could be the human adaptation of the beaver's diet. Instead of bark, I could get the sugar from the cake and the chocolate icing.
