Sick-Day

I have been sick with some cold for the past couple of days so I don't feel like cooking.  Tonight, my daughter, Lisa, made Split Pea Soup with Ham and other vegetables (carrots, onions, and a tomato).  It was delicious.  We really enjoyed it.  It was true comfort food.


We also had a Japanese pumpkin that we prepared in two ways.  David, my husband, did the cutting.  We made one dish that is Japanese-style with soy sauce, and the other dish was a warm pumpkin salad with onions tossed in mayonnaise and lemon, some salt.  Both were light and tasty.  
Tonight's dinner was simple, for obvious reasons, but very satisfying.
