Phlegm-less menu ahoy

Man, I feel almost like myself again. I can walk around the house without ending up breathless, I can inhale deeply through clear, unclogged nostrils and I can move my head without going dizzy or getting pounding temples.
Joy.
I am going to celebrate by cooking a large joint of roast gammon, and will be adorning it with a side dish of my legendary, patented Chesworth Cauliflower Cheese. I hate not having an appetite, but when your throat feels like its been scoured with a metal loofah it’s hard to enjoy your food, so the past few days have been awful. Porridge, soup and pasta have been the only things I can ingest without feeling on the verge of vomiting. Today, though, I can taste clearly, breathe while chewing, and I have the energy to stand at the cooker peeling vegetables, so you can bet your fat arse I’ll be enjoying myself. I’ll get some rocking tunes banging through the bluetooth speaker and I’ll be glazing carrots in honey and coating potatoes in marmite prior to roasting.
Dishing up about 5pm, if you’re interested.
