Carbs and Cola

I’m feeling much better today; thankfully I took aspirin early enough that I never developed a full-fledged migraine.  I got a lot of migraines as a kid, and often they would hurt so bad that the pain would cause me to throw up.  Thankfully the husband is really diligent about getting me medicine as soon as he sees me rubbing my eye.

I did, however, have a strong enough headache that the only foods that appealed to me were carbs and diet coke.  I just went with it and ordered a Turkey Grill (sourdough, swiss cheese, turkey, tomato, thousand island dressing) with fries from the bar down the street.

I also ate a small bowl of popcorn.

Two confessions – 1. I totally would have eaten more than that but we ran out; 2. I think it’s kind of hysterical that what I consider to be so small a bowl it’s hardly worth it is probably just a normal serving size to most people!

What foods sound good to you when you are feeling sick?  I’m pretty much always down for a CokeZero.  If I order a non-diet, clear soda than you know I’m really sick.
