Voice


My voice is slowly coming back...ever so slowly. The Luo Han Guo really does work wonders - thanks for all the comments in my last post demystifying this curious fruit. I'm drinking cup and cups of the liquid as I type ^_^

I was clearing though photos from last week and came across this one I took Friday night. When Zubair and I kick back for a late night movie, wine and cheese is typically involved.

We settled onto the couch.

"No more alcohol," I pointed at my throat and exaggerated a whisper. We had just come home from an evening at El Quinto Pino and Mayahuel where I failed to obey my doctor's order of sticking only to hot water, hot tea, hot soup, hot (insert non-alcoholic liquid).

The wine disappeared along with him into the kitchen. I heard a beep, some fumbling, and clanking, and then out he came with a tea tray in hand. Tea pot, cups, sugar, and everything! So thoughtful!

Oh, and the cheese, we cannot forget the cheese. A half-pound wonder of Jasper Hill Bayley Hazen Blue. Same type that we brought to the movies two weeks ago. Addicting in the least ;)

Get your voice back by Saturday! That's a demand.

I would never have thought that tea and cheese would match but I am glad to hear that your voice is coming back. Take care!

This is really sweet. I'm glad you're feeling better.

Thanks for commenting on my Turkey photos. Have you had any good Turkish food here?

Kathy said...

Jess!
Will do, ma'am! ;)

Kat!
Heheh, the tea didn't match as well as wine, but it was the thought that counts ^_^

Darien!
I actually haven't had Turkish food here...but after seeing your ice cream photo and that CRAZY baked potato, and the pasta...we're going to have to find some!! :)

@Darien: did you travel to Turkey??
I'm planning to visit there this summer. If so, any good recommendations?

@Kathy: Glad you got your voice back! How many doses did you take? :)

What a great way to see a movie! I wish I could do that but I am still watching kids' movies only with my 9 yr old son and his friends. My "man friend" does not drink alcohol. Movies are not as fun for me, LOL! Glad to hear you are getting better.

Hey Gar!
Hahah, gallon and gallons of that fruit soup! :)

Hey Yutjangsah!
Hehe, I agree ^_^

Hey Mae!
LOL…I think I got extra lucky this time ^_^
