When we were out of town, my husband picked up a stomach virus. He promptly gave it to me. I didn't eat much of anything for two days. The next two days were a BTD version of the BRAT diet - Bananas, Rice, applesauce, and Toast (Ezekiel bread in my case).

The BRAT diet was useful for getting my digestive tract to slow down. However I woke this morning knowing that I didn't want another day dominated by fruit and grain. I was ready for vegetables and light meats - nothing too heavy or hard to digest though.

For lunch I had salmon, turnip greens, and cooked carrots. For supper I had thin sliced roast beef with black eyed peas and apple slices. It's a start back towards normal.

Tonight I'm tired. We had planned a garage sale for this weekend long before the stomach virus, and I carried on with it. I could go off on a tangent that has nothing to do with the BTD, but I don't understand how garage sale aficionados think. We sold a broken bed frame, a broken clock, and old make up, but no one was seriously interested in the state of the art Norwalk juicer.
