I'm pretty sure this is a cold and not allergies. I really feel like crap. I hope I'm over it before I go into labor. I don't want to risk giving it to Dominic when he's brand new. "Welcome to the world, Dom. Here's something that'll make you feel like crap!" It kinda makes me hope I'm Beta strep positive so I get those antibiotics in my IV. I just blew my nose and it looks as though I'm getting a sinus infection.
Justin took my car in yesterday to have the brakes looked at. I'd been noticing they were kinda mushy and not working too well. I had no idea the brake shoe was broken clean in half. Very dangerous. I'm glad they didn't give out entirely.
I made cherry turnovers last night. The apple ones are far superior. I need to find a good cherry pie filling to make good cherry turnovers, I think. I used canned cherry pie filling. I split the filling in half, rinsed off the goop and added the clean cherries to the other half, thus making the filling more cherry-dense. Unfortunately, all of the flavor is in the goop. The cherries are completely flavorless. One of the things Justin really loved about Washington was its access to good fresh produce, including Rainier cherries. He'd never seen them before outside a Harry & David catalog and was drooling over them at the Safeway. I bought him half a pound and he fell in love. We can get bing cherries here in Ohio, but they're not that good and I can't justify Harry & David prices to make a good turnover.
