warm, comforting meals when sick

the other day i had a rotten sore throat w/ a quite empty pantry, so i just made a super simple pastina recipe (broth, orzo, parmesan, butter, & pepper) and i'm telling you. it was like magic how much better i felt! i wasn't cured or anything, but i felt leagues better for a few hours :)

cut inflammatory foods from your diet

had mono a year ago and at first I wanted to eat comfort food to feel better during the fatigue, but once my tonsils got hella inflamed and my throat was just on fire all the time I realized all the greasy, salty, sugary, carby, alcoholic stuff was probably making it worse. you can find stuff online that has a more comprehensive list of what triggers inflammation but I took anything fun out of my diet for a while and stuck to simple soups/rice dishes and definitely helped some. side note whatever you do resist sticking stuff down your throat to scratch your tonsils.

I haven’t been sick in 2.5 years but Literally just classic chicken noodle soup from the Jewish deli

With tons and tons of black pepper… It heals all

a walk

if you don’t have the time for an actual break sometimes just taking an hour or less to go on a walk can really help settle your mind. It won’t immediately break you out of a funk but having that time to yourself outside will def help

blood oranges

recently bought blood oranges at trader joe’s bc they were cheaper than the normal oranges I buy and they’re sooo good. Easier to peel and better tasting
