While I've been feeling significantly better lately, I haven't been able to bring myself to start cooking. Food still doesn't appeal like it used to. I'm eating, but more out of necessity than desire. The several times I tried to make something I could barely bring myself to eat it and the majority of it ended up in the trash bin. Many foods I used to enjoy just sound and smell gross. I can't predict when or even if I'll get my appetite back. I sorely miss being passionate about eating, but someday this will pass (and it's definitely for a worthy cause). For now, we're spending Christmas split between Oregon and Virginia and I have my family to feed me!
I hope you all have a Merry Christmas, filled with love and happiness and all sorts of delicious things. ..
