home is where the sick people lie.

hi there, sweets. i hope you've enjoyed a most splendid week.

we've been keeping ourselves cozy these last few days-

both of us came down with crummy colds early in the week.

sore throats, stuffy noses and overall just super wiped out.

i swear i didn't budge from the couch all monday afternoon or tuesday.

{tomato soup and perfectly grilled cheese sandwiches . . . sick kid love.

side note: back home, cheese is white. here, it's orange.

should i be freaked out by this???}

we finally made it out into the world for an interesting morning lecture at belmont university,

followed by pancakes and coffee for lunch. hot breakfast foods really are

the miracle cure for aching, ailing bodies.

dozens of mugs of throat coat tea, salt water gargles

and hot apple sauce with cinnamon later and we're pretty much back to normal.

i'm looking forward to a fun weekend now that we're on the mend.

springtime colds are the worst! . . .

although, they are a good excuse for frozen yogurt and milkshakes.
