On Easter I half of a large piece of salmon from the fish store. It was fresh Wild Salmon.. so dark Pink.. almost red. It was so good. I split the piece into 2 filets.
Cooked it stove top, with EVOO.. I forgot to baste it Gordon Ramsey's way, with butt when I flipped it over.. but it came out good. I have never cooked a salmon filet before. I usually use salmon steak, broiled, during the summer.
It was good.. not overdone, but I think I used a bit too much EVOO; very crispy on each side. I do not eat the skin.
For Easter, I had green beans and wild rice.. Not a fan of wild rice..
Monday, I had leftovers, tossed the wild rice; taking a small container of cooked spaghetti squash out of the freezer.. It was good..
Yesterday, I was not feeling well. My six months between the two doses of shingles vaccine were up this week, on the 11... I had to get the second dose... I dread that because I got such a bad reaction to the first dose and I am still recovering from the hospital visit..
I got it on Tuesday, early afternoon.. I forget what I ate on Tuesday, for supper, but it ws good.. my mind is jut not there anymore...
Woke up Wednesday, very early morning/night.. after 1AM, shivering, freezing.. took Temp. 100 degrees.
The shivering stopped, but I was so darn hot.. Temp peaked at 100.8.... I was taking Arthritis strength tylenol..
Needless to say, food was not in my future.
I ended up getting showering, getting dressed, ran down to building store for some bagels, english muffing and so cream cheese... That is what I ate yesterday..
Today, woke up with temp of 99.8... much better, but still a fever, and my usual torso rash..
It has to be some type of reaction to the additives in the vaccine..
I looked them up: Pneumonia is a active virus. Shingles is from the protein of the virus; not active..
The Covid is an mRNA vaccine... all different, and all give me a reaction..
Wonder if that means my immune system is woking?? I do not know, but I wish I would stop getting sick from all these vaccines..
Yesterday, I did take a container of chicken soup out of the freezer.. I mad it.. I do not know if I will eat it today or not. I did order a turkey club sandwich for supper.. It depends on how I feel..
Yesterday, I did not even feel like heating anything up... the english muffins were all I could handle..
Spent all day in bed..
With Geoffrey cuddling me.. Poor baby wanted to play, so desperately.. He was even trying to open the drawer where I keep his wand toys.. but he was a good nurse.. even lying down on the foot of the recliner while I watched Star Trek Voyager, last night.. sweet baby..
He knows when I do not feel well.. He is always at my side.. when I am sick.. always cuddling with me..
Geoffrey is still a baby at heart.. He is 5 years old.. but he was so frightened when I adopted him~~ hiding, afraid of everything.. He finally broke out of his shell, became a real cat, 2 years ago.. when I moved.. so his emotional capacity is that of a 2 year old.. sweet.. not a biter. not a scratcher..
All the Vets say he is such a good cat.. He really is.. still makes me laugh.. and we still play, a miniature
"chase" around the apartment.. every night.. I play 'monster' and he runs..
Sorry for rambling... just a bit of my day...
