Ugh, got the creepy, crawling, crud! I came down with this crud day before we got home. Caught it from my hubby. Have been in bed for 2 days, with cough, sore throat, chest and head cold, chills, and achy. My neck is even stiff as can be. Ugh. This too shall pass, I hope.

I make a fantastically awesome homemade from scratch chicken-n-pastry soup where when I make the noodles I load them up with all of my favorite italian seasonings to make them italian pastry noodles. I wouldnt mind whipping up a batch for you. Just say the word and consider it done. Hope you feel better
Re: Ugh, got the creepy, crawling, crud! Thanks you guys.....I feel better already.

Re: Ugh, got the creepy, crawling, crud! Cindylou,
So sorry you are under the weather! Hey, if you don't take Greg up on that soup, I will! Greg, do you deliver? How long before you can get me some to Alaska? lol
My daughter was so sick a while back and it ended up being Mono. I haven't seen anyone that sick in .....since I had mono in 9th grade! Actually had to take her to the ER because her glands swelled so big she couldn't breath!
My thoughts and prayers are with you!
Susanna
Re: Ugh, got the creepy, crawling, crud! Thanks Susanna. Appreciate the kind words. Greg's soup sounds like something, if I could only figure out a way to get it to Minnesoooooota! Sounds delish Greg! :thumpup:

Re: Ugh, got the creepy, crawling, crud! Thats where I come in handy....I already have the transportation dilema figured out. I'll just drive out there and deliver it. Or maybe I should drive out there and just make it there....probably would be fresher that way!
