Today I finally ran out
of steam. After another night of no sleep and appalling pain the
morning found me more tired than when I lay down and I was
frighteningly weak. I managed to get up and make a pan of porridge
for breakfast (I have a new spurtle I wanted to christen) and
breakfast was lovely,unfortunately I kept on falling asleep at the
table and eventually I had to admit defeat and allowed myself to be
packed off to bed.
I propped up my swollen
feet, snuggled into a fleece rug and tried to sleep but it was no
use,still I was at least resting and for that I was thankful.
I was able by dinner
time to make a lasagne along with some garlic bread the troops were
delighted do that was all right.
I seem to be getting
worse quite quickly now and my concern for the boys is growing,my
confidence in them has also growing as my son becomes more and more
proficient
about the cooking.
He now had a proper chefs apron and really looks the part.
As in all he does he
takes a real pride in his efforts and shows great promise in matters
culinary.
I hope to feel better
in the morning,but in the event that I am still feeling shaky a
rabbit pudding is on the menu,it is a breeze to make takes all day to
cook and costs the minimum effort for someone who is feeling unwell.
I shall serve this glorious dish with a quadrille of winter root
vegetables and a rich rabbit and port wine gravy.
Well it won't do for me
to lose my position as head chef too soon!
