Rola, what's Dutch soup?

Cindy, I agree - throwing up is HORRIBLE! But can you share some of that rain?

Cyndi, sorry to hear. Hate getting sick like that, it just ruins everything.

well Julie, you are having a great day, despite not having any luck with Avatars..

Another TOPP ... #8

I just remembered a horrible cheer I learned somewhere during my schooling:

Re- re- gurgitate.
Vomit, Vomit what you ate.
V - O - M, M - I - T
Vomit, vomit, (followed by a noise typically heard when vomiting)

I'm SO sorry, Cyndi! I hope that didn't gross you out.

Wow, Rola, thanks! I didn't notice, but just kept my fingers flying.

Cyndi, sorry to hear you are so ill,
hope you get over the tummy whatsits real soon, is it the Medication that is causing the upset tummy

No, the mouse is not one of the latest ones, I've been using him for a while. I actually borrowed him from Dave, but I think he got it from Rosemary(?) i picked up about ten new ones. Too bad I couldn't make this one into an avatar, but wouldn't reduce any further.

Cyndi, that's a GREAT comfy chair. I like it as a smilie, if you can't reduce it further.

Cyndi, you could open your comments with it. It'll show up right under your avatar.

Dutch Soup = Beef and Vegetable soup, the way my Mum and the Dutch make it... except mine doesn't taste nearly as nice as Mum's, or my uncle (dec) in Holland, or Mum's cousin (dec)..

This is a fine conversation. Sorry you're sick, Cyndi. Hello, all.

Just thought - is there any way to superimpose a smile or draw one on the chair?

still yummy though

hello Ruby.

Cyndi .. Like your Comfy Chair

Hi, Ruby! We're glad you could join us!

Cyndi, I like Becky's idea to just start your comment with it.

Rola, now I'm hungry for soup!

Hi Ruby.

Nothing I make tastes like my mom's.

You know, Rola, I've been wondering if one of the meds in particular is doing it. I'm sure it's the one that gets my head to spinning.
It seems to be gone for now, but I just took the second dose a whie ago. I'll be fine after I get some sleep.

Cyndi, Mayo Clinic has a great site for meds (names, what they're for and side effects, etc.).

hmm nothing like a nice bowl of soup.. when younger and at home, mum would always have soup on the stove. Would have it before I went to bed.

Rola, did you put the receep for Dutch soup on the receep page?

Cyndi, that would be terrible if meds are contributing to your problems! I hope you're right that sleeping will help alleviate the problem!

A happy memory like that can make you feel better than the soup.

no receep, I just make it.. watched my mum and helped with the chopping of the veg since I was knee high to a grasshopper

Let's see if I like this better.
Becky, I've checked the Keppra,but tge majority of the meds I take can cause nausea and/or vomiting so it's hard to tell.

That's the way my mom cooked, Rola. No recipe, just did it. Once I made the mistake of asking her how long to cook something. You know the answer. 'Til it's done.'

The reason I suggested the site it that my SIL has Crohn's and takes 40 pills a day. Hopefully after her hip surgery the number will go down.

Becky, thanks for letting us know that the Mayo Clinic site has meds information. I didn't know that!

Rola - wow - I never thought of having soup before bed, but it seems like a good idea! It's light and warm and maybe helps invite the sandman. You're right, Ruby, a good memory to have - and to share.

By the way, does anyone ever have the Comments box totally disappear? It happened to me, and I actually had to quit and restart to get it back.

Well, I messed that up, let me try again. What do you think: mouse or name?

Wow, Becky! I knew Crohn's Disease was awful, but 40 pills a day? I don't think my husband takes that many for anti-rejection and fighting the side-effect of the anti-rejection meds.

Big Soup Pot
Fill with Water, add meat
Chopped up Veg: carrots, celery and leaves, parsnip, turnip, onions (lots), I also add a little bit of grated pumpking, potato, zuchinni, small chopped up bit of cauliflower.
Beef Stock cubes, Salt.
Bring to Boil, simmer all day.
Take meat out and dice up, return to broth
add a couple nests of vermecelli, handfull of small shell pasta, if I have made some - tiny dutch meatballs

Cyndi, if you think your medicine is making you sick, you need to contact your doctor. I know it's late on Friday night (when everyone gets sick), but you can call his service.

Julie, the link is on the left side, above conditions.

I've had everything disappear tonight. Tried hitting the refresh button and it all came back.

I like the new avatar Cyndi

Gosh, Cyndi, I like both the mouse and your name! Is it overkill to use both?

Mum would make (thin) Porrige for desserts. I learn't how to make that too when younger. mum would be at work when I got home from School, Diiner would be ready for me to put on and start cooking. and I would make the porrige.
Sometimes on a Sunday Night I would just have Porrige for Dinner.

Becky, refresh didn't work for me - tried 2 or 3 times.

No Julie, it wouldn't be an overkill, I have 7 and change them regulary.

Julie, some of the pills are for hip pain, anti-inflamatories and mood-knockers to fight her depression caused by the anti-inflamatories. We're hoping that all these will go away once the surgery and recovery phase is over.

Is porridge like oatmeal? I remember the children's poem:

Pease porridge hot, pease porridge cold . . .

or is it 'peas'?
