I was supposed to have a doctor's appointment today along with a mini morning off for myself but Norah came down with a tummy bug yesterday and hasn't been able to keep anything down since. So, instead I had some of the yummy banana bread I made yesterday for breakfast today. I tried out a new recipe and I have to say I was impressed. There's not a lot of sugar so the natural sweetness of the banana gets to take center stage. You can find the recipe HERE. Did you know there's a banana bread site? Neither did I until yesterday. I'm a bit of a traditionalist when it comes to banana bread so I tend to not add anything unnecessary. My mom used to make it for us all the time and I remember getting sooo excited every single time. However, when she made banana pudding I wanted to cry. Go figure. :)
But while I spent my morning a yummy breakfast we found out that Norah still cannot keep down water or dry toast. So she is spending her morning like this. She is so miserable right now. I'm taking lots of breaks to snuggle with her and check on her. I think I'm going to move her to the chair in my office so I can keep a closer eye on her, though.
So, we'll be nursing the icky sickies while I finishing washing the other couch slipcover, the first victim of Norah's tummy bug.
I hope everyone is having a tummy bug-free day.
And I hope Norah perks up a bit enough later to go outside. I've told her that when she feels better we can go outside and see the new pink blossoms on the tree in our backyard. She's looking forward to it, too, as she said she wants to send some blossoms to my parents so they feel better, too.
Love this girl.
