Whats For Dinner?

Well, yesterday I didn’t post because it was my turn with the stomach bug. Not a lot of fun, let me tell you. The only thing I ate, if you can consider it food, was a candy cane. It was a struggle even to drink something.

Today, even though I’m feeling better, I still haven’t eaten much. I had a bagel this morning and a small piece of cheese a couple of hours ago. Atleast I could make the kids dinner, which I couldn’t do last night. I guess with everything I’ve eaten from Christmas until Sunday, maybe a few days without food is a good thing.

So, it got me to thinking what’s the best things to eat when you’re not feeling so hot. I know a lot of people swear by chicken broth. A long time ago, you’d have a bullion cube in a cup of boiling water. Saltine crackers also go good with this, or just the crackers by itself.

Some people like to have toast. They say to have it dry but I think most people have to put a little butter on it.

You really need to stay away from dairy products. On the second day of one of the kids being sick, she had a yogurt and we saw it again real soon. Then she asked for a glass of milk. I had to veto that one.

If anyone has any good suggestions on what to eat to get back to normal, I’d love to hear it. Four of us have already been sick so there’s one more to go. She thinks she’s going to avoid it but I’m not so sure.
