What did you cook or eat today: July 2025

How about you, @TastyReuben? Healing quickly?
Thanks…not quickly enough! I’m probably just annoyed since I’ve been putting up with this for so long and still angry at my regular dentist for dropping the ball on things, but jaw is still sore, though better than it was, definitely.

Tooth still has that itchy feeling that, according to Dr. Google, can either mean healing is progressing properly…or a raging infection. It’s never one or the other with Dr. Google.

Throbbing is certainly gone, now it’s just a low-level ache and some pressure sensitivity, which every dentist who’s ever given me a root canal has said can last for six months - I think that’s a CYA to keep people from coming back.

My head says things are slowly getting better…my heart wants to tie the office staff, dentist and the assistant to the back of my car and drag them a several miles down a bumpy gravel at top speed.

Adding in my snack for lunch (going out to dinner tonight - belated birthday meal for moi):

Happy birthday!
 
Made a pint of garden fresh tomato paste. This is so not like that rust colored brown stuff in a can. I can see some homemade pasta and fresh garlic sauce coming up!View attachment 131290

JAS_OH1, you're on call for the pasta, right? 🫣
Yeah, it's on my to-do list to make a big batch, but I need to wait until after my new refrigerator is delivered on the 25th. Trying to keep the contents of the kitchen refrigerator/freezer at a minimum over the next week.
 
I'm working on it. Slow going today because of the barometric pressure headache from the weather, but DH has it worse than I do :thumbsdown:

I went and got a pedicure earlier so that felt nice. Might be time to take some more acetominophen.
I hate summertime now, it destroys me, I don't like the heat and the pressure and allergies and stuff wreck havok on me.
