hiccup

there has been a minor hiccup in the good weekage...nothing too serious though. just aching, fever, headache, runny-then-stuffy nose, etc. laura was kind enough to share her nyquil last night so i could sleep despite my inability to breath through my nose. i guess it worked, i woke up a ton last night but felt a little better today.

having no appetite this morning and full on vitamin C immunity boost juice goodness i thought, what do people eat when they're sick? grilled cheese and tomato soup popped into my head. not being a huge fan of tomato soup, and lacking the key ingredient, i decided to finally make the carrot soup i've been planning on making in order to utilize all of those carrot tops i've been getting. it was okay...my taste buds aren't really working anyway right now, so it seems like perfect time to try out something i was a little hesitant of.


have i mentioned how comical i find gluten free bread? i've seen crackers bigger than that bread, hence the double dose.

the rest of the afternoon i spent curled up with a box of tissues and this movie (tissues for my runny nose, not tears):

a most incredible movie. i watched it before going to china a couple of years ago and fell in love. i finally found it on line for $8, perhaps one of my best investments!

april, brittany, and butt-face nick came over for dinner tonight so that was fun and definitely a good distraction for the not feeling so well. although i eventually sat at the table with an ice pack attached to me and found out i had a fever. still a good time though and more food out of the fridge, yay! i have a lot of work to do before friday when i get the next batch. stay tuned for an update at the end of the week on all the deliciousness that has been cooked!
