Slowly getting back into the swing of things...

Well, my cooking mojo is back.... I enjoy going out to dinner and letting someone else do the cooking; but nothing beats a home cooked meal. David has been great these past three weeks taking care of things and doing some of the cooking. Tonight I made baked chicken with a spice rub, garlic Brussels sprouts sauteed, and white rice with orzo.

Dink... yes, dink...

For those of you non Navy folk, dink means to be behind in something or not do something at all... I have seriously been dink in keeping up with my House Frau blog. I have good reason to. Since the end of August, continuing on, I have had kidney stones from HELL, in both kidneys. I have gone from being ok and managing the pain, to literally not being able to get out of bed the pain is so bad. I am so frustrated because I haven't been able to finish my Project Clean, which should have been done the last weekend in August. So my bedroom still remains a disaster and my master bath floor and tub is still dirty. But I'm not dead, and life goes on, and I will get back to my normal routine. Once I get rid of those horrid little bastards. Ugh. So that's it in a nutshell. No fleeting words of wisdom or tasty recipes... those will have to wait.
