The past week has been a blur of meetings, job candidates and yet another fucking cold. And oh yea, it’s fucking hot, too – 88° as I write this, on Sunday afternoon. Sitting on the bed next to Mark as we try to decide if we need to take him to urgent care – he [...]
Mark’s out for a walk, and Al is at work, so Joëlle & I had creamed spinach and leftover rice for dinner. The rice was cooked in coconut milk and homemade veggie broth – I made it to go with the Thai vegetable curry a few nights ago. I went to the doc this afternoon [...]
Today I was so tired I just felt like giving up all day. I’ve been thinking it’s a sinus infection – sore glands in my neck, really crusty eyes in the morning, tired, tired, tired. Today I searched “middle aged women fatigue” in MedlinePlus”, and the first thing was Subacute thyroiditis. It’s every symptom I’ve [...]
When we go out for Thai, if I don’t get tofu pad thai, I always like the curry that is red curry sauce with a little peanut sauce mixed in, too. At the place we usually go to, it’s #42 on the menu, “Pa-Naeng – curry sauce mixed with peanut sauce, zucchini, green peas, carrot. [...]
And a coconut cake that crumbled, and a green salad with little tomatoes, that Jean brought. That’s what we ate with the neighbors tonight. The lasagna had that pureed tomato sauce, that I make with my home-frozen tomatoes. Tuesday, I made a big batch with the last 4 bags of tomatoes from last summer (after [...]
I stayed home on Friday with my cold, and interspersed bouts of working between couch time and cups of tea. I went to Walgreens and got cold medicine, and took two doses but I woke up so dehydrated on Saturday morning that I haven’t taken anymore – seems better to let the cold drain. I [...]
On Thursday, I packed lunch for work, but tried to keep it light because I knew I was going to eat Indian for dinner. There was an event with pizza, though – faculty & instructors presenting descriptions of upcoming courses – and pizza was provided to get students to come. There was a lot left, [...]
In the evening, I cooked Indian food for the School Woods dinner on Thursday, so we never sat down to eat. I made pasta salad, though. And some of my snacks were Indian ingredients – like raisons.
So like I said, yesterday I tried to start taking pictures of everything I eat before I eat it – with mixed success. Today, I forgot once by my work breakfast time, 11:00 a.m., and then again by dinner. Man, this is hard – I went and got a hard boiled egg for a snack [...]
Here’s most of the rest of Monday’s food – Even though I had such a plethora of baked goods at home, I bought a cookie at the cafe at the Wisconsin Institutes of Discovery, where I had a meeting. It’s called Aldi’s for Aldo Leoplod. Bought a cup of coffee, too. Carried it all back [...]
