Comfort Food

Still suffering with a cold, so I checked the National Health Service website and I think I have bronchitis and could be stuck with it for another two weeks or so – deep joy! At least I have my sense of taste back, so have been enjoying food and doing some comfort eating. This time online shopping worked out well and I found these goodies, with Halloween special and rather tasty strawberry and cream cakes. I see lots of tea and cakes in the coming days!

When you are sick, you are entitled to do whatever you want to feel better.

Oh no, I am so sorry you have bronchitis, I think the best is to rest at home and self-treat it. Those cream cakes look delicious and I am sure they help with the cough.

The trouble with online shopping is that it is so easy to spend more than you planned
