I've had a tenacious stomach bug for the last three days. So, this blog should be titled What I Can't Eat. It was a big deal when I ate a banana yesterday. But, club soda is my savior.
It's one thing when a person whose tastes go no farther than McDonald's can't eat... but when someone who enjoys and appreciates good food is stricken with a stomach bug, man oh man... life is *so* not fair.
Sending feel-better vibes your way for a quick recovery.
I do have a tiny little recipe for you which I think you can eat (and stays in, either way).
My mum used to mash a banana with a few tablespoons fresh orange juice and fed us that during this kind of trouble. I do the same with my kids and really it works. Also forms a nice layer to keep the steamed white rice in there as well.
Take care!
uck . . . hope it's all better soon Sher!

Oh no! So sorry you're not feeling well.

Maybe steamed plain rice to see if your stomach can take it first?

Warm low sodium chicken broth with a spritz of lemon always makes my tummy feel better.
Hope you are feeling better soon.

Bananas are the best when you're sick! I hope you get all back to normal soon.
