Just for the record, we had the soup for dinner last night along with some great whole grain bread from Dave’s. It was a great dinner and there was yet another huge snow storm going outside.

I took a really horrible photograph via my iPhone, just for the record:

Garnished with more freshly ground pepper and some great fresh parsley.

For the record I feel crappy and I think I might be coming down with a cold. I was in bed by 5:00 this evening. I am watching the West Wing Season 2 – one of my favorites. My surgery is scheduled in less than a week.

I just finished the book Admission and The Girl That Kicked the Hornet’s Nest. I am so sad to be finished with the Millennium book series. Now I am reading Perfect Life by Jessica Shattuck. I really loved her first book, The Hazards of Good Breading. I am waiting for my mom to finish Freedom by Jonathan Franzen. Another book I am looking forward to reading is Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet. I have been doing a lot of reading these days. If you have suggestions, let me know.

I now have Apple TV – if you have recommendations for things to watch post-surgery, please let me know. 🙂

I am signing off for now. Lots of Vitamin C and tea with honey coming down the pike. Lovely.
