I have been feeling well enough to do more things like cooking. In the past 2 weeks I have cooked 5 times which resulted in 9 homemade dinners for my husband and myself. The home cooking is great and some creative recipes have come into our dining rotation. A new favorite is Scottish Loch Trout, which is similar in appearance to salmon but with an entirely different flavor and texture. I am happy to report that the Scottish Loch Trout tasted even better the second night.
You have guessed that there is a down side to all this cooking. Yes, there is a downside. I plan my shopping trips early in the morning. Then after the food is put away I take a 2 to 3 hour nap. Wake up in time to start dinner and nap again while dinner is cooking.
I am also working on a small shawl. It has a 7 row repeat. I find that since I am on the second skein of linen yarn I can only do 1 repeat of 7 rows a day. That’s ok with me. The shawl is slowly getting finished. Any progress is good progress.
As for house work it is all done in 5 to 10 minutes at a time followed by resting or a nap. Sometimes I wonder if the old energizer bunny will ever return. Other times I am grateful that I can get so much accomplished between my many rest and nap breaks throughout the day.
