Chicken and Egg Dumpling Soup
When the flu suddenly comes to visit you make a giant pot of chicken and dumpling soup. It is one of those kind of soups that you just put on the back of the stove and it takes care of itself pretty much. I woke up at 4 this morning and could not go back to sleep so I put the pot of soup on then. Later on I went back to sleep.
I wanted matzo ball soup but we didn't have enough matzo meal and I am not about to go to the store. It took just about all available energy just to make this pot of soup.
There was something on the news that my county (Kitsap) has been hit hard with some sort of flu, but then again I could have told them that already. I don't remember the strain they said it was. Just "the flu" is good enough for me.
On a side note: How do people watch so much TV? Since last night I have been doing pretty much nothing but resting in bed with the TV along with sleeping and it is totally boring. Usually about an hour or two a week is enough for me.
