typing here one fingered so it's going to take a while...
i broke my arm...
it's amazing how quickly these things happen...
walking along in our dining area...my thongs 'stuck' to the floor and over i went...
splat, right onto my left shoulder...ouch
a day of hospital...x-rays...doctor...etc and i'm in a sling now and have to stay that way for 6 weeks...
followed by physiotherapy to get the arm moving...
providing it heals well without surgery...
this isn't easy being a carer for our daughter jojo who has a disability...
mr dolce vita was luckily here and able to assist me up...
and has been able to take some carers leave from work to care for jojo and me...and he is run off his feet...
one of the last meals i made before this happened was 'sticky pork with buk choy' from one of my favourite magazines...donna hay
donna sggested a pinot noir for this meal and mr dolce vita was happy to oblige...
the magazine purchased about 5 years ago...
donna's version...
i love my vegies and decided on pumpkin, potato, onion and garlic along with herbs from our little herb garden...
buk choy atop the pork...
vegies roasted...
all cooked and smelling delicious...
and all done in no time...
and this is what i look like...
it still hurts...doctor trip tomorrow to assess it all...
and i wouldn't mind being able to cook that meal again...
the positive side...i am having an enforced break from caring due to a very supportive husband...
bon appetit...dzintra

Sticky pork looks delicious Dzintra. You can do magic with one arm girl. Sorry it taken me awhile to get here. I lost some of the thumbnails of my blog list and can't see the images only word. Don't know what happened there. Look after yourself - Hugs Nat
ReplyDeleteDear Dzintra! I hope someone is looking after you well! You poor thing! :(
ReplyDeleteI was just checkin' in to see how you were gettin' along with that bum 'wing' of yours.
ReplyDeleteHope the mend is quick sweetie!
God bless and may the luck of the Irish rain upon you!!! :o)
How is it that I have only just discovered this fabulous blog! I love it and I love that you are cooking with Donna!
ReplyDeleteNow, about that injury, I am so sorry to hear that you have been poorly. I sure do hope that everything is better now.
Take care and best wishes for a beautiful week.
