Ohh, the pain (and boredom) caused by disabilities. I am feeling for you too.
I am getting to the end of my wanting to deal with dinner every night. I just don't know what else to do and I have run out of things to warm up from the freezer. On top of that, my contributions from friends and neighbours, of various chicken soups, have run out. Friends offer to take me to restaurants for dinner, but I'm afraid that we would both be ejected because of my Newly acquired eating behavior, reminiscent of a 2 year old.
A friend with a walk in shower. Offers a shower and dinner But there is A limit. To the number of times I can take advantage of that. It is an eye opener, to realize how much the loss of one hand Can limit creativity or in fact just minimal productivity. My flight down the stairs, Back first, Resulted in two broken ribs. One Ominously injured shin bone That is now developing into some new and unique liability. A Very painful bruise the size of France expanding down one hip and leg. A broken wrist...the most of the annoyances, Possible concussion since I am so dizzy right now…will know soon.. nasty bruised tailbone. Black eye. And Resultant. Disinterest in. Doing anything in the kitchen. It would probably not be so overwhelming if the wrist that is broken were not my useful wrist, as in my right wrist. But of course, not so. And if the ribs that broke were either both at the front or both on one side., but no. I had to Make sure this was going to be was well-balanced pain. BUT no lost teeth yet
I have neighbors to open pill bottles for me but I can't even open a can except sometimes pull tops , and then only with a great deal of help from extra tools. But Only thing I have in flip top cans is cat food. None of the labels is tempting me ,no matter how creatively the flavours are described (for the illiterate beasts).
So anyway, you get the idea…..i am useless.
If anyone has any ideas on enjoyable. And healthful frozen meals. I would be very grateful to know what they are. I am a bit concerned about not eating well enough to get over this as i can't chop/slice anything at all. Pain and physical inability….one thing. But not enjoying eating is a serious loss. Tank goodness somewhat decent wine is now available in a box. That I can operate.
So food:
P f chang ….. any good?
Mama somebody?
not mac & cheese
I have no experience with this type of pre prepared food.
Tonight: blueberry pancakes and bacon. Note the overload of green veg in that meal. I'm looking forward to seeing how well I can whip an egg with my left hand with nothing to hold the bowl but a damp cloth.
