Daughter loved the meal she had tonight although it is not a typical meal
for her. She requested pancakes, eggs and bacon. They were buckwheat
pancakes. I've never made them before. She had sugar free syrup. I think
she wanted really soft foods because her throat is so inflamed. Dr. said
she needs to stay home and rest tomorrow. Thankfully it's only a really bad
cold and not the flu. But now husband has it as well. He wasn't as
complimentary about the meal. Said the eggs were bad. They were actually
an egg product. The kind that comes in a carton. Daughter likes the stuff
so that's what I buy.
