My Appetite Came Back!

Being sick stinks. Not only because you feel crummy but I can't enjoy food, and that is major for me. I love food. It seriously makes me happy. I know that's not normal but it really does. So today I splurged at the store so I can get my pallet back in shape. I bought an artichoke to steam and dip in butter and some creamy swiss cheese to go on rosemary crackers for a snack later. Yum.

I want to make savory dishes this week. Not too fond of the sweet stuff yet. My body goes in spurts of wanting different things at different times. So I figure I'll listen to my body and do my thing that way. We've been juicing fruits and vegetables every morning and it really helps keep my energy level up mostly all day. This week will be rich and savory. Rosemary is one of my all time favorite herbs. It's good on almost everything and your breath smells good after you eat it. :) From garlic bread, crackers, appetizers, meat, etc. it's incredibly versatile.

Once our house finally kicks this icky illness I need to kick myself into high gear. I want to get back to cooking and creating and doing what I need to do. Sitting in bed all day is driving me nuts. We have a garden to plant. Our pigs are coming nest week and we need to build a pen for them too. Book reports to start, poems to memorize for school, mutual, and a ma and pa meeting for the trek to complete.
