wierd food things are going on. since i got sick, i have been eating an INORDINATE amount of eggs. i'm obsessed with soft-boiling them just right. i had one for lunch just now and it was deleeshus.
also for lunch, made myself a huge bowlful of chicken and wild rice soup. i usually hate animal broth-based canned soups but man, this cough must be screwing with my taste buds because today, for the first time EVER, i savored the taste of chicken broth. o___o weird! i also bought at the store for the first time that frozen tabatchnick (sp?) cabbage soup, which i have always been curious about, but not curious enough to buy. we'll see how that goes. :P
so yeah, instead of going to class today after work, i became disheartened and mulish at the sight of the rain and have just been eating/drinking warm liquidy things and listening to rainy-day music. :P
lessons:
1) when life gives you lemons (aka crap days), make lemonade (aka be a fatty)!
2) illness makes you more adventurous in your bland food tastes!
3) every day, i become more literally a boring old woman. :D
at least the rain colors the hillsides lush green. when i drive to work sometimes i pretend that i am driving through gloucestershire. noooooot sure why my mind picks that particular british county, i just roll with the punches. :D
