Bzzzzzzz

Today is day nine of my Bell's Palsy.  And, yes, I STILL have it.  I just knew I'd be done with this thing by now.  I mean, come on.  Okay, joke's on me.  Hardy har freakin' har.  Let's move on.

Nope.

I still cannot close my eye by itself.  Cannot BLINK it at all.  It just stays open ALLLLL day unless I reach up there with my finger and manually close it.  Which I do.  A lot.  Together with my left eye, though, it will close.  I'm still having tingling and some feelings that I can only describe as "buzzing".  It doesn't make the sound, of course, but it feels like the sound makes. Make sense??  Like a vibration.  That HAS to mean some nerves are waking up, right??

I WAS able to blow out a candle today, though.  First puff!!  

My eye is very tired tonight.  I guess I strained it too much today.  So I'll leave you with zee baked ziti I made for supper tonight.



Five cheeses (provolone, ricotta, parmesan, cheddar and romano), fresh spinach, portabella mushrooms, marinara sauce, veggie burger crumbles, garlic powder, salt, pepper.



Oh yeah.

  3. No recipe! I just threw all that stuff together with a cooked box of ziti.
    I used a whole jar of plain marinara and a handful of fresh spinach that I had in the fridge. I chopped it up in my chopper. The shredded cheeses were individual bags and the mushrooms were fresh. The veggie burger crumbles were frozen. You could use ground beef instead. I guess a pound or half a pound. Garlic powder, salt and pepper on top. Bake 20 minutes at 350. Voila!
