My Valentines Gift

Well, the title is 2 fold. I still have not received a call from my Dr.s office. I am so anxious I can't stand it. I haven't gotten real sleep in a week, I toss and turn and think about this surgery all the time. I am hoping that they will call me on Valentine's Day and give me my surgery date. Thus the first part.

The second part, my hubs got me a new Cookbook for after surgery. Let me clarify, I walked up, handed him the book and said, this is what I want for Valentine's Day! And yes, he really needs that much instruction. He would have gotten me roses and chocolate (I work from home, so roses are mute and uhm, chocolate, yeah, no explanation needed).

The book is called Recipes For Life After Weight-Loss Surgery by Margaret M. Furtado and Lynette Schultz. I have read all but a few pages that I skimmed and it is awesome. The recipes call for normal foods and sound yummy. It is full color and has beautiful pictures of most of the recipes. I love to cook, I am a total Paula Dean fan, so I have a lot of learning to do when it comes post surgery. I will be posting some of the better recipes on the blog at a later time.
