I am feeling better, if not entirely well. In particular, I have my appetite back. To celebrate this, or something, [personal profile] adrian_turtle stopped by with a cheesecake this afternoon: it's from 7Ate9 Bakery and decorated in rainbow colors for Pride.

I have eaten one slice and will be freezing most of the rest. This was after having a reasonable lunch -- cucumber and smoked trout -- followed by some ice cream and then a slice of ham.

I also transplanted the two remaining tomato plants, one Yellow Brandywine and one hybrid cherry tomato, before Adrian showed up. I'm now somewhat tired, so clearly not altogether well.

For the record: on [personal profile] cattitude's advice, I called my doctor this morning to check in, since I was still coughing some. She assured me that this sort of cough can go on for weeks, and that I don't need to come in, or do anything else in particular, unless it gets worse. She also advised me to stop taking the cough syrup, so I have done so (after a dose first thing this morning, because I was coughing some). I don't seem to be coughing more now that the codeine has worn off, which is good.

I have also been easing back into my PT-ish exercises: just a few, both fewer kinds and fewer indivuidual exercises (one set instead of two or three).

Pride CHEESECAKES?!?

How do you accomplish this miracle?

It's super easy! (Well, it was when I ate cheese—vegan cheesecake is such an ordeal in itself that I haven't made the Pride one since.) Basically, you make your batter, but instead of pouring it all in to the crust at once, you divide it up and dye it into the different colours. Then you can either swirl them all together or try to keep them separate. If you're making a no-bake cheesecake, you can also layer, then freeze, then layer, then freeze, but I don't have the patience for that.
