Pillows, Puppies, Netflix...Oh my!

Strep throat AND the flu....at the same time....seriously?!?! I knew I felt bad and figured I had the flu, but was really surprised when I was also diagnosed with strep throat. I haven't been this sick in years.

That being said, I've had lots of quality time with my pillow, my puppies, and Netflix the past 4 days.

I've been living on hot peppermint tea, black cherry sorbet, Mexican chicken soup, and apple sauce.

I have never missed solid foods so much before!

Today is the first day I can swallow without a burning sensation. It's still uncomfortable, but not painful. I think I will venture out of the bedroom and make myself something more solid.

I'll keep it simple by making these paleo crepes (which are absolutely delicious) with fresh berries and maybe even top them with some home made fig jam Sam and I got from a local farm recently.

It'll be just like a paleo crepe style breakfast I made a few weeks ago.

This is what is on my mind today....

...or maybe I'll lie in bed just a little longer, because I feel absolutely exhausted thinking about the energy I will have to exert to get out of the bed...and I still have this obnoxious cough...and tightness in my chest. Damn flu.

& I'll leave you with a new favorite song of mine. :-)
