What the Doctor Ordered

I went to see my doctor today and it looks like I'm recovering well. He said the Swine Flu has a more intense effect on people under the age of 24, people whose immune systems are down, and people who have asthma or other respiratory sensitivities.Lucky for me, I currently fall under every one of those categories. Unfortunately, I think I gave it to Kathryn, so she's in bed with the Flu now, too. I also had to make an appointment for a Pulmonary Function Test in a month, to find out if I really have asthma and to make sure that my lungs don't have anything else wrong with them.

But yesterday I felt a bit better, so I decided to try making stew. My grandmother is a culinary genius, so I got her recipe (it's the best out there) and I followed it the best I could. This is the result:


It looks like hers, it smells like hers, and heck, it even tastes pretty much like hers! I'm very proud of myself and will now share with all whom I have afflicted. Get well soon!

mmm.... tasty grandma stew. Too bad you had to make it on your own, that always makes it a little less satisfying. At least when you are sick and a baby like me. Hope it doesn't have pork in it--that's where the swine flu comes from. I'm working on being ignorant, how's it going?
