this is how I cook when no one is watching

I made myself the weirdest dinner. I don't know what I was thinking. This is how it happened:

I started out with very few options, almost no food in my kitchen. Shredded beats and carrots, boiled up some buckwheat kasha, added garlic, lemon juice, salt, pepper, honey, to the beats and carrots. That tasted weird so I added soy sauce and a hot pepper. That tasted weirder so I added the rest of a jar of tomato sauce. Surprise surprise, still tasted weird, so I added a lot more honey, then I added the kasha and fried it all up together. I was starting to feel like I was 11 and at a slumber party and making that thing that I was going to dare my friend to eat. At a loss and unable to imagine my dinner without a healthy helping of dairy, I threw in a glob of the "creamy" cheese I accidentally bought hoping it MIGHT be cream cheese back in September. Luckily it will never go bad.

I'd rather not think about what kind of logic led me from one decision to the next, but somehow the resulting purple pile of mush tasted kind of ok. The only way I can describe the flavor is Mexican-ish. It tasted, inexplicably, like the insides of a bean burrito. So... I ate it.
