sick of this, for sure.
You wanna know what the worst thing in the world is?
Losing your sense of taste!
I know...initially I thought this nasally, congested, bronchial sickness would be my big breakthrough. As long as I couldn't taste, then I should have no problem surviving off the stuff of supermodels - lettuce, celery, and spring water. This should be just what I need to catapult myself closer to that not-so-new-New Year's weight loss resolution. So I thought...
Then Troy came home to care for me on Friday evening with my favorite mix of See's Candy. I excitedly grabbed one out of the box to taste, and nothing....nada....couldn't taste a blasted flavor of the delicious chocolate. So, I tried again. (I'm not a quitter) NOTHING! Then I tried about 3 more times before finally admitting to myself that my tastebuds were SHOT!
It's a sad realization, folks.
On the one hand, I wanted to keep trying because in my memory bank of food flavors I KNEW what that chocolate was supposed to taste like and I desperately wanted some. On the other hand, I couldn't keep eating in vain and wasting my calories on flavorless food.
Again this morning I returned home from the grocery store with some homemade chili sauce aka the stuff dreams are made of.
Then I got a hankering for one of my favorite snacks. This chili sauce poured over the top of cream cheese and spread on crackers. Oh....it is so delicious. But, as soon as I popped that first cracker into my mouth I was so frustrated. Once again...NOTHING.
So, please tastebuds....please come back to me. We've had a love/hate relationship in the past, but I am realizing now it's definitely more LOVE than hate.

lucky find? you decide.
together....
we went in search of some new ladybugs for the collection.
...in the process, we found much, much more than we bargained for!
Talk about bad dreams! We are all going to have them!
