(146,218 posts)Terrible cold.... feel like hell.
I have some really good broccoli and a butternut squash, so one of these is going to become soup today, if I can get up the energy to make it.
Or maybe I will just send DH out for some hot and sour soup.
Hope you are well.

Hope you feel better soon!

(146,218 posts)Thanks for the good wishes, fizzgig. I don't get sick often, but when I do, I am a big baby.
(I'd give you a hug, but you don't want anywhere near me right now, lol)

Tonight, I am also having a baked potato and a salad.

(146,218 posts)I love to make a big old roast and eat it for days. Maybe I will do a pot roast tomorrow.

Saw above that you have a bad cold. Feel better quickly.

(146,218 posts)Fortunately, the weather is warm and I have a wonderful nurse who has been very thoughtful.
How have you been feeling?
I made a roast chicken earlier in the week. Found a great recipe which involved cutting it up and a citrus marinade, if you are interested. We made multiple meals out of it, including some chicken noodle soup, which was exactly what I needed.

(175,742 posts)I'm planning to just roast the chicken with salt, pepper and fresh tarragon. The citrus sounds good (maybe another time!) but I don't have the makings and no way to get it since I am not driving yet.
Funny thing about the eye is that I never felt bad with it and didn't have any pain. There was some discomfort for a while after the surgery and it still itches. My vision is improved, but I have trouble reading or focusing on the computer screen. Right now, I have the bad eye closed and my face is about one foot from the monitor.

Hope you're feeling better.

(35,687 posts)But not just any sammich. I bought a fresh piece of wild caught salmon and some shrimp. Made a salad of this by flaking the salmon and chopping the shrimp. Added chopped celery & onion, hard boiled egg, and mayo. It needed a bit of sweetening, so I put in a little coleslaw dressing.
I also got a fresh purple grain boule for the bread and some lentil chips to go with. Lentil chips are wonderful, BTW. My new favorite sandwich accompaniment.
cbayer, so sorry you're not feeling well. I hope you return to normal soon.

(146,218 posts)I've never heard of purple grain bread or lentil chips. I will look for them.
Thanks for the good wishes. This too will pass.
