I've learned a few things over the past month, and thought I'd share:
- Thanksgiving dinner at the hospital, regardless of how fantastic the hospital staff is, will always be awful, and may even make you cry...just a little.
- My husband has excellent turkey cooking abilities that I never knew existed.
- I will never cook a turkey again.
- Having meals brought to your home, when you have no energy to cook, is the most wonderful thing imaginable.
- Spending time with family and friends is truly fantastic, especially when they have a place for you to sit and don't mind if you go lay down for a bit in the middle of a conversation.
- If I never see another episode of Law & Order, or SVU, it will be too soon.
- Going vegetarian for a few days a week really isn't that bad, despite being an unrepentant carnivore.
- Technically, French fries are vegetarian.
- I am really, really, really ready to feel like myself again and get back out there and into the kitchen.
- I have, without question, the best staff in all of Frederick. Thank you to Caroline, Kerry, Wendy, Sharon, Dotty, Elizabeth, Rachel, and Sarah. You. Are. AWESOME!
