Danny is still getting over a pretty awful virus. He had been sick with a sinus infection for about ten days, and then picked this up towards the end. By the time we got to the doctor he had 104 degree F fever and couldn't stop coughing. And no appetite.
So after a couple days of living on juice, Danny seemed to get his appetite back and requested garlic bread. He took a few bites and apologised-he still can't stomach much food. That's OK, I have a freezer filled with ice lollies, malt cups and other things that go down easily.
In what I'm sure is completely unrelated, but kind of funny-he's in the living room playing cannibal/zombie/dinosaur/Godzilla and I heard:
"Uuuugghhh, I just vomited a missionary!"
Thank god he's homeschooled-can you imagine the telephone calls I'd be getting from teachers?
You Will Need:
Bread(mine is a mixture of white, wheat and rye)
Butter
Finely chopped garlic
Hard Cheese (I used Pepato)
Salt/Pepper/Missionaries to taste
Mash the butter with the garlic and spread it on bread. Top with cheese and set under broiler for a couple minutes.
Two good reasons for home-schooling: sick kid stays home and doesn't infect others; "vomited a missionary" indicates he's getting a WAAAAAAY more intelligent education than he could from a committee-approved curriculum.
ReplyDeleteThat "vomited" comment is being added to my archive of great Danny comments..
By the way, every food from this post down to "Thumbprint Cookies" looks absolutely A+. (not sure about the pickled mushrooms) *envy!*
ReplyDeleteI don't know if I ever told you this story:
ReplyDeleteDanny was at the doctor and was told to "open wide and say aaahhh"
Being Danny, he looks at the doctor and says somewhat conspiratorially:
"You want to see my uvula-don't you?"
Thanks for the compliments. The mushrooms were pretty nice too. Half of this stuff I can't eat, so I have no idea how they turned out, but L. really liked the corned beef.
