A lot has been happening on the forum since I was last on.  Marina I hope your OP goes well.

I have had an interesting 12 days in hospital.  4 days in the West Gippsland Hospital and 8 days in the Dandenong Hospital.  I had not been eating properly for quite some time and then I had 5 days of being unable to keep food or liquid down.  I went from 72kg down to 60kg.  The problem is with my oesophagus which goes into spasm.   There have been lots of tests and still more to be done.  Unfortunately there is no cure for this.  In the hospital I was being fed through a nasal tube to try and build me up a bit.  Now my meals will need to be mostly soft foods like thin soups and pureed meals, nothing that is lumpy or has solid food in it.  This came as a bit of a shock but hopefully things will improve in time. I think my TMX is going to be working overtime.

I didn’t get to make fig and lime jam this year , it’s a Dani Valent recipe on Cookidoo . Might be good with ham .

Chicken mango curry rice . From Skinnymixers new book Dinners 2 . I actually really think Dinners 1 is better .

Cookie, how very exciting.
Last night I made a stir fry. Beef, mushrooms, snow peas, water chestnuts and cashew nuts. Enough for 2 meals.

That must be very disappointing Judy.

I ended up having a bit of my daughter’s fettuccine with prawns, you couldn’t even see where it went missing from her huge serve. At this time of the year you’d think hotels and restaurants would have soup on the menu.
