being sick is yucky

i've been dealing with a rather miserable cold for the past couple days, and while this has been hard on my social life, and i had to cancel on cooking for a couple of my friends this weekend, i have on the other hand had plenty of time to sit around and julienne sweet potatoes and work on my knife skills. i did make a big batch of pasta but after finishing it, i went to take a nap, and when i got up the family had gobbled it all up. none for me.
