I hope islenskr and lady_jade01 both feel better soon!

Note to self: research on calories per serving of various foods when I get home. Started to do research before the trip and discovered I'm not consuming enough calories, so body is in 'starvation' mode. Could explain why I was so tired after hours in the garden or cleaning or whatever, as I've been averaging 1200-1500 calories per day. I think what changed is that I stopped having the between meal snacks -- eating habits got broken last year, between the craziness of packing/moving/selling, and then recovery from surgery, I expect.

Hard work and lack of a sufficient caloric intake probably contributed to getting sick, too. Blah. Well, the time lost to stopping for snacks will probably be gained in not staring at the PC screen like a zombie :D And then some, no doubt!

Will be bringing home a few small things from Mom's place, that she'd been intending to give to me. One, for the cooks here, is the Moosewood Cook Book. Also, a small stained glass music box that she and I picked out many years ago at the Polk Street Fair in SF. Beautiful workmanship, it's made to look like a little furniture cabinet, with working doors.
