MARMITE..... I NEED YOU NOW!!!!
Day 32
I woke up at 9am with a sore throat and a slight fever. It's now 12pm, the fever's subsided and the sore throat almost non-existent. But gawd, my lower back still aches and my breasts are getting more tender by the day.
Now, i have this funny taste in my mouth. I must be really sick. I got a shock when i looked at myself in the mirror before i went to bed last night and i really looked like a zombie, pasty-faced and all. At least Gordon is back to his old self and watching Chicken Little now. I shoved him into the bathroom with papa just now to save myself from having to give him his bath later.
Porridge with Marmite is all that i want now; my ultimate comfort food. I love Marmite with almost everything i eat.... on toast, as a beverage, straight from the pot on my finger, with fried rice, as a dip/gravy, etc. Been eating that since i was a kid. I still remember my mom used to buy me small packets of macaroni that cost only 20 cents each and cook that for me whenever i'm ill. Aaawww, i want my mom to cook me that NOW. Gotta wait another 1/2hour for the porridge.... die.
Do you all have a special kind of food that'll make you feel better whenever you feel unwell or down? Care to share some perk-me-up recipes?
Tip: eating Marmite keeps those mozzies away

for me, if I'm ill, I just want to sleep. Food will never be in my mind. :(
Sleep and hope to die. Hahaha.
I like the pickled vege in cans. Nice! Now, I crave it. Maybe I go open and eat them. I always keep a can. Want some?
