So...I forgot the Farmers Market Saturdays post - but I'm not going to do FM Sunday or even Monday. I'm going to reject the guilt and come back next Saturday to do it right. Sometimes you just have to move on.
Speaking of which, it's been a rough few weeks battling a cold that I mockingly stated that I would breeze through because of my ultra-great immune system. Um...no. No breezing through for me. It wasn't even one of those "I was so sick I lost 8 lbs in one week" colds. I couldn't even get lucky that way. Oh well. I'm feeling better and am ready to start the week. Mostly.
Some things that do help, in case you are one of the unlucky few that are dealing with a Spring cold right now (because the weather is ridiculously cold when it should be almost Summer:)
*Laughter. I saw "Date Night" with Steve Carrell and Tina Fey. Ridiculous - but funny. I am in love with Steve Carrell and Tina Fey. I would marry either or both of them, simply because they are insanely witty and deliver a line like no one else. Except...each other.
*Getting out of your comfort zone. My girlfriends and I went to an open casting call for extras in a scene/scenes being shot in my Valley for the move The Big Year, with Steve Martin and Jack Black. I think they were looking for "birding" types as the movie is about some guys who spend a year searching for the most rare birds they can find. We are definitely not "birding" types and so very likely won't get a call back (also there were almost 400 people who showed up for the call) but that's okay, because the thought of being on a movie set makes me kind of want to throw up. But we all firmly believe you should do things you've never done before - so there we were, getting our picture taken by an assistant to some super-fab casting director.
*Friends. The above-mentioned girlfriends are my life-savers/shrinks/partners in crime. When all else fails, we eat and drink and solve the worlds problems. There is no cure for the blues/a cold/heartbreak/violent mood swings like hot wings and libations with great friends.
I hope all of my American neighbours are having a wonderful Memorial day weekend!Blessings!

amazing wot hot wings can do with a good old chat with the girls :) get well soon xx
Hope you are quickly on the other side of that cold. Way to go about getting out there!!

Hot wings are the way to go when you have a cold! Someone told me once that putting things on your feet such as vick's vapor rub helped a cold, maybe some of that left over hot wing sauce would do the trick. When is Summer gonna get here and when it gets here I'll be praying for a cool breeze, there is just no pleasing me. Get better, sending you some warm positive cold bashing thoughts your way.
Colds are really a downer. I seem to have weak spot for them. Time seems to be the only cure.
We should always push our comfort zone and try something new. It makes life more interesting. X.
I think that We may have exchanged emails a long time ago but now I cannot find yours!! LOL Email meat zelmar1027@gmail.com. Thanks and congrats!!
Hot Wings are my FAVORITE!!!! Well anything hot really. I have 48 pepper plants in my garden right now!!! Yummy!!!!
Hope you are feeling better :) I love your list of things to help... hotwings and libations along with good laughter should be at the top of almost every list.
Love your feel better list! My boys also think that hot wings cure everything. The weather here has been in the 90's with thunderstorms, muggy. Sure hope that you a feeling better, summer colds are the pits.
