Mrs. P made creamy (frozen) corn farfalle with (frozen) peas and shrimp and a side order of shishito peppers.
This was my first real dinner after laminectomy surgery on Wednesday to partially remove 3 bulging disks (L3, L4, and L5) that were hitting a nerve causing pain to shoot down my leg and numbness in my foot for the last 6 months. I had 3 epidural injections that didn’t help. This was my 1st surgery and I had no idea what to expect. It was a long 8 hour day at the hospital. I no longer feel the pain in my leg but the pain in my back from the surgery is excruciating. I can barely bend, sit up, or get out of bed. Poor Mrs. P, who has been a saint through all of this, has had to change my bandage several times a day because it is soaked in blood. She also had to rush the dog to the vet, so she didn’t have time to make anything with fresh ingredients. It looks like we won’t be dining out this weekend.
