Friday Finisher 6/12/15

June 12, 2015 by Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine 50 Comments

Down and out! That’s what happened to me from middle of the night Tuesday through Thursday. I basically lost a whole day of my life Wednesday. I slept the entire day, couldn’t even look at the screen of my phone, let alone promote the blog post I had go up. (If you noticed, I totally disappeared). I never EVER get sick like this…ever! The headache I had was unreal and I had a fever! I think the last time I had a fever was in 2nd grade when I had pneumonia! (Haha!) We’re assuming I caught it from my dad. All I can say now is TGIF! As I haven’t been able to move my body for the last 48 hours, I’m hoping to ease into the weekend and maybe actually act like a human again today.

So I really hope your week was a lot better than mine, but here’s to a great weekend for all of us! And I hope you’ve been enjoying all these circa 2014 recipes I’ve been posting! It’s my mission to get the old ones published before I get to the good new stuff! (Make sure you’re following me on Instagram since that’s where I share all my sneak peeks at what’s to come!)

A few things I loved about my week or am grateful for:

+ My cookbook collection increased by at least 12 new books over the last week or two. My cookbook addiction….it’s a beautiful thing!

+ My Hamilton Beach food processor (the new one) was sent to me, after my old one just broke on the second use. I hope this one actually…lives.

+ Here’s to a much better next few days for health and happiness!

So tell me:

+ When’s the last time you totally got smashed with flu/virus/sickness and were just out of total commission? Um…never…except this time. :/

+ Favorite thing to snag at a Farmer’s Market? Random, but the only food that didn’t make me feel nausea looking at or thinking about this whole time was the perfect sweet dark red lovely strawberries awaiting me in the fridge (and now…they weren’t from a farmer’s market..bu I digress!) I hope to get to a market soon!

    I’ve FINALLY caught up with my blog reading! Where do I begin? I totally agree with the “Dear Bloggers, I’m Done” post. It’s so frustrating to be faithful to a blogger and not get much of anything in return. I also loved the “F” word post. I never cursed until my kids became adults, now I say the “F” word way too often. Maybe it’s reality TV?

    I hope you’re one hundred percent by now. I’m so glad you’re home and your mom could take care of you. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Those mixed berry tarts are lookin good!! My favourite things to snag at the farmers market right now are local Ontario strawberries. They are so juicy and fresh and just so yummy! As for the last time I was sick… I had an awful stomach flu that had me hurling for three days. That was awful. When I recovered, I felt so grateful to be healthy again! Hope you had a beautiful weekend <3

    I hope your sickness is on its way out and you start to feel better ASAP! I haven’t been totally knocked out by a cold, but the last few months I definitely over-worked myself and ignored all the warning signals of burnout. I paid with a cold and a sprained ankle in the same week and ended up having to take the week off to recharge.

    I think that article about how successful people work less and get more done is going to be super helpful! ๐Ÿ˜‰

      No, this was a virus! I wish it was a cold! I can knock those like that (I have a whole get-well remedy that always works!)
      Yea, I’m trying to look on the bright side of total rest for 3 days, although, it’s hard to call that rest when you come out of it so weak!
      Yes! It’s good to know it is possible!

    Those popsicles look like something both my little sister and I would LOVE! :)) My favorite thing to snag at a farmer’s market is probably fresh peaches or pears, because Colorado produces some of the best from the Western slope. Last time I had a cold was about a month ago. I figure a cold is usually just a way of making my body slow down and relax.
