After 5 days of a very unpleasant dose of stomach flu it is time to get back into the kitchen. Headaches, fever, stomach cramps, rumbling tummy and loss of appetite, incredibly frequent urgent trips to the bathroom have left us both washed out and exhausted. The humidity and heat either real or perceived has totally drained our energy. Sipping gingerbeer, filtered water and white tea has helped with hydration but it has been an uphill battle. The merest exertion has been very taxing. I, or should I say the pressure cooker, made a huge pot of soupy chicken and Vege risotto. There is no way I had the energy to stand at the stive a stir and cook. The very smell and thought of food turned my stomach but food was needed as was fluids. For 2 days we had a small scoop of it a couple of times a day. The dogs had the same. Chicken 'n rice just what a vet would order. Portie the antique chihuahua has quite enjoyed the holiday, no tools, no vacuum, 3 videos a day. Her favourite dinner and the aircon in the bedroom, don't forget sooky cuddles from a sick mum. She could really get used to this life. Tilly on the other hand had been bored. She has been taken on some runs the last two days that wore her out, plus the daily hunts for intruders in the pumpkin patch have kept otherwised engaged.
