Bread, Pasta and Scrambled Eggs

The last two days have sort of blended into one, and have resulted with me feeling incredibly sluggish, and like I’m coming down with a cold.

Yesterday, my boyfriend and I took a drive over to Worcester town for the day to browse the sales, get some birthday presents for my mum and brother, and to have a nice lunch somewhere. After days of eating sweets and chocolates we were both craving a mountain of carbs so we went to Ask – usually I avoid bread and pasta like the plague, but as it’s Christmas I’ve been treating myself to bread here and there. I ordered garlic bread with cheese to start, thinking it would only be a small portion, but it was the size of a dinner plate! Nom nom, all gone! Then I had pasta with chicken and mushroom in a creamy white wine sauce – I can’t describe how good it was to eat real pasta again! It must be over a year since I last ate real pasta and I was worried it would make me ill like the last time, but I survived!

After we came home from Worcester, we put a DVD on and I did something I never do…I fell asleep in front of the TV. So this morning, after almost 12 hours sleep, I dragged myself out of bed, managed to get myself showered and dressed, but I’ve spent the day just flopped on the sofa, feeling weak and pathetic. I’m so stuffed, but I can’t stop eating, I’ve got a sugar headache, a sore throat, and a day at work to look forward to tomorrow! My lovely boyfriend has been looking after me though, he made me delicious scrambled eggs for breakfast – I’ve never tasted scrambled eggs so good before; he is a kitchen genius!
