Still sick…I stayed home from work today, and even though I didn’t venture outside, it seems like it was the perfect day to stay in. Lots of rain and flooding around town.
Thanks for all your suggestions on how to get well! I’m actually feeling a bit better, and I’ll probably go to work tomorrow (there’s really too much for me to do to stay home). Here’s what was on my plate today…
I started off with Vanilla Oikos because I read somewhere online last night that yogurt, as long as it doesn’t contain gelatin, is a good way to fight cold sores. Whenever I get any kind of head cold, I usually get at least one cold sore; this time it’s two. Even though they’re oh so attractive, I wanted to see if the yogurt tip was a good one, and it seems like it helped a bit.
Instead of topping with my usual blueberries and strawberries, I decided to go nuts (get it? ha) and incorporate some Wild Berry Mix that Eden Foods sent me to review a couple of weeks ago. Yum, this was delicious! I love how clean the ingredient list is – organic roasted pumpkin seeds, organic sunflower seeds, organic roasted almonds, organic Thompson raisins, organic dried cranberries, organic wild blueberries.
I loved it so much that I added some to my VitaSpelt Apple Cinnamon Organic Spelt Granola, along with some hazelnut milk and half a banana. Two breakfasts, a great way to start my day, even though I was sick.
I got creative with lunch, aside from my now-staple side of veggies and hummus. I warmed and cut up a Morningstar Veggie Burger and a BOCA Bruschetta Tomato Basil Parmesan patty and put that inside a whole wheat wrap with some Cedars Roasted Baba Ghannouj hummus. Heaven on a paper plate!
Mid-day, I also had a tasty glass of Naked Green Machine.
For dinner, my fiance surprised me by bringing me a surefire cure — Chinese chicken and veggie soup and crab puffs from Sesame House, our favorite neighborhood Chinese restaurant. I think that, and having a day to rest, made me feel a good bit better.
Don’t forget to enter the mini-giveaway I’ve got going. Who doesn’t love coupons?
