Okay, for those of you in northern climes perhaps 20 F is not cold. However, I am FREEZING. Every time I go outside I feel like my sinuses want to explode. Could it be my metal glass frames? Who knows? All I know is that I am staying inside until it gets warmer.
Had a cleaning frenzy today, vacuumed and mopped the floors, cleaned off the countertops, and just generally made things look a little better. The place is still cluttered, but I’m getting there. Cleaning is also not bad exercise if you are moving around a lot. I was moving furniture also. I said it was a frenzy.
Back to health. I am definitely feeling better, but still tire very easily. However, I am now truly over the prednisone munchies. I bought all healthy food at the grocery and didn’t once crave something else (well…that is until my silly husband started talking about chocolate). Went to a friend’s for dinner last night and zonked out around 10 p.m. We were playing dominoes though (chickenfeet), so I managed to finished the game. Every time I laughed though I thought my head would explode. I HATE sinus issues
Anyway, we made a great salad to take over there. It is my husband’s creation and I love it!! Everything is best in chunky sizes–not chopped too small. It is best with a balsamic vinaigrette dressing (the light version, of course).
- baby spinach and radicchio (Of course, I use the bags. I hate washing lettuce.)
- strawberries
- mandarin oranges (I use canned.)
- radishes
- seedless cucumber
- kalamata olives
- cheese (swiss or cheddar)
- purple onion (not too much)
- mushrooms
- cherry tomatoes
The strawberries with the balsamic vinaigrette are to die for!
