2 months

two months ago was the last time that I cooked a real meal for my family at dinner time.  since that time, we've been living off of meals made by a few wonderful friends, meals made by a wonderful husband, and anything that i can throw in the microwave to get us by.  =)  often, walking into my kitchen makes me sick, and opening the fridge makes me sicker.  the smells, which no one else can smell but me, assault me the moment i enter the room.

the past week has been a little better.  i'm getting some energy back, not feeling quite as nauseous, and am feeling motivated again to clean... a little.  =)  and last night we hit a mile stone.  i actually cooked!!  i think will was in total shock the whole night; i wasn't planning on cooking anything, but as the afternoon wore on i felt the urge to plan a meal (thinking i would just tell will to please cook this).  and then i found myself actually thawing the meat.  by the time will got home i was chopping onions!

we had brown rice, topped with ground turkey, onions, peas, and yellow peppers, with a rosemary-chicken stock gravy.  

i'm so excited to be feeling a little better!!

Great to hear that your nose isn't connected to your stomach anynore. After what you've been through, I'm thinking of starting a Meals-On-Wheels service for expectant Moms.
