Recovering from The Flu...

This week, to put it lightly I have felt RUBBISH! Thank goodness for being organised and having a large supply of bubba meals I had made and frozen. Because I struggled to get dinner on the table this week, little though cook brekky and lunch. So this weekend definitely is going to entail going to the Farmer's Market tomorrow and getting a heap of fresh goodies to do a cook up and replenish the containers I used this week!

Yesterday I did manage to cook Pumpkin Soup with Smoked Ham & Topped with Crispy Procuitto and Mash (a recipe from the Matthew Hayden Cookbook)...shame I couldn't really taste it yet as my tastebuds still have that fluey dullness going on. Troy seemed to like it though which was good and when Hudson finished his bowl and saw it was empty started crying so I got him some more which is devoured so I think that's a big tick of approval. This was what it looked like....

Also I made Huddo a little treat for his afternoon tea....some Apple & Carrot Minimuffins. I made some changes to a recipe I found online to fit with ingredients I had and not wanting to put too much sugar in.
I gave him 2 for afternoon tea yesterday and 2 today...by the time I give them to him and walk back to the kitchen to put the container away and come back he's only got half of one left.....The kid is a little food machine!


As for what I'm doing to recover from the flu as quickly as possible....
Trying to rest whenever I can (basically when Huddo slept this week...I slept too!)
Having plenty of water, SuperGreens powder, Herbs of Gold Zinc & C Powder and a nightly cup of hot water with fresh lemon juice and honey and 2 panadol. ...I'm on the mend but Tuesday night and Wednesday...I was definitely a visitor to Struggle Street!
