How ya feelin' today?

 

[elevan]

Went to the doctor today and they switched my antibiotics. I just wasn't tolerating the one that I was on. My fever is back to yo-yoing, so hopefully with this new med I'll be on a faster road to recovery.

I've slept most of the day. I haven't been out to see my critters since Saturday evening so all updates come from DH. I just don't have the energy to walk out to the field. I ate for the first time tonight since Sunday.

feel better soon

I hope you feel better really quickly!!!! Sounds like you are pretty weak and when you do start feeling better, be careful to not overly exert yourself, since that is so tempting after not being able to do very much...can set you back big time...so, take good care of yourself

Also want to thank you for that great link on how to clean a chicken...can't remember the thread, but it was very helpful

I have a nice shiny gift to myself on the table. Too bad I cannot enjoy it right now.

What is it?

A beautiful KitchenAid - Artisan Series Stand Mixer in Empire Red. I've wanted one of these for a long long time.



I want to feel better RIGHT NOW so I can play with my new toy!

oohhhh. I LOVE my kitchenaide!

I have lots of the attachments, too. The ice cream maker is the BOMB (had to get an extra bowl for it, lol). I use the meat grinder attachment alot, and also the veggie/cheese shredder.

Put the wire wisk on, and set it on the lowest setting with some warm creme....it makes butter for ya.

The pasta attachment is also wonderful, lol.

Yup, your gonna love it. It will be SO worth the wait!

The meat grinder, cheese / veggie shredder will arrive in a couple of weeks since it was out of stock when I ordered.

The ice cream maker and pasta makers are on my list. Did you see that they have a ravioli maker now too!?!

I am so fed up with being sick - I wanna play!

 

[redtailgal]

I knew that they had the ravioli maker but havent gotten it yet. I may get it, I am undecided. I dont make that much ravioli, and when I do I do it like my Mim did.......by hand. (prolly why I dont make it that often, lol)

 

[elevan]

I don't know who I'm kidding...I want every attachment for it

It's unbelievable how long I've waited to get one of these and now when I finally decided to do it, then it arrives and I'm sick. *big pouty face*

Think I'm gonna go take a nap and dream of my new Kitchenaid

 

[autumnprairie]

I am still dreaming of one
