It was a pretty tough week preparing for a dinner I booked pre-hurt hand. And although not being able to do much to help was pretty awful for someone like me, with the help of some kind chef friends who volunteered their time, we managed to pull it off. Many tears were shed by me over this entire experience…happy ones of gratitude for things like—one of my chef helpers, not only gave me two days of her time, but made me the exact sandwich I mentioned in passing that I was craving from Olibea (r.i.p.) and I shed frustrated tears at things like not even being able to open a well sealed zip lock bag by myself (good job Kirkland brand for a mighty seal 😂). all in all I am in awe all those that sent a kind note, brought food, flowers, candy, tea, or pain meds. I try to give a lot and I was not let down by all those that gave back to me 100 fold. THANK YOU. I get my stitches out Wednesday and hopefully will get back to it soon. Stay tuned for soup updates for in the next week!
