Got cold :(

Finally I got cold!

How come I didn't know I had got cold until I had fever and headache last night when I was sleeping? The fact that I started having sore throat since last Sunday is already a 'signal' to me but I didn't catch that. I had just thought it was because I ate too much deep fried food over the weekend, that I got sore throat. I was still feeling ok over the last two days! Then all of a sudden, in the middle of the night, I felt my body was feverish, and I had severe headache and muscular pain. I didn't sleep well. When I got up this morning, all I felt was severe headache, muscular pain, 腰酸背痛, 手軟腳軟! :(  I knew then that I got cold. I wonder if the soup I had last night 'triggered' it, since it was so 涼 in Chinese medicine and for women like me who are weak when 'auntie' is coming, it's so easy to get sick! I remember last time when I had 綠豆生地湯, I also seemed to feel a bit ill afterward. :( Maybe my body can't take too many green beans?

Anyway, throughout the day, I just felt so tired, with severe headache. I didn't stay at home to rest though. I went out for hair cut in the morning - my long hair made my skin problem worse and also I wanted something refreshing. I guess I did look more energetic with shorter hair! Then I went to the china town to get some foodstuff for lunch. Later in the afternoon I was trying to look for chilblains cream for my poor little finger which is still swollen, red and itchy (the cream that the GP prescribed me doesn't work at all!) but I can't find any. :(

It's said it'll be even colder in the next few days, especially the weekend! I don't like winter.. :(

Lunch: 雪菜雞絲炆米粉 :)
I didn't feel like anything deep fried or too saucy. I just want something tasty but plain when I'm sick!

 Dinner: 薑汁炒芥蘭配雞肉, 冬菇蒸三文魚, 芝士洋蔥quiche (from Waitrose)
the quiche was the most tasty! The 'kai lan' was also good! 
Though I was ill, I still had good appetite!
