Sorry for my absence. I’m sick. I mean really sick. High fever, cough, sore throat, chills, my nose even spontaneously started bleeding tonight. It totally freaked me out.
I’m not going to lie. I’m worried. Worried about the baby. Worried about not being to finish up projects at work before Friday. Worried that I didn’t post yesterday. Worried that my crazy schedule and lack of sleep has finally caught up with me.
BAH!
I’m done worrying. As a wise friend of mine once told me…
“Worrying is praying for what you don’t want to have happen”
Off to bed. Tomorrow will be better.

If I was a good blogger this idea would have been published BEFORE the Super Bowl not during it. I made these today to have a little fun. Surprisingly, The Husband liked them even though he didn't eat more than one. Why? Because he's strange like [...] -
If you read my weight loss blog you know I'm battling a bit of back and neck pain right now. I'm starting to feel a little better but those first few days where rough. Being the head chef of the household, this meant we ordered in a couple of times. I'm [...] -
I'm LOVING Pinterest! I can just scroll all day long looking at food photo after food photo. I wish I had more time to peruse! (I'm RoniNoone there by the way?) The other day I pinned a Portabello Mushroom pizza and was immediately inspired. It's such a simple idea and so light. [...] -
The other day I found myself craving an Orange Julius. Are they as popular as I think they are? Growing up we had an Orange Julius at our local mall. It was always a treat for us at the end of a family shopping trip. Once I was old enough to be [...] -
So I'm a little breakfast nutty at the moment. Little Bean LOVES eggs and I find myself cooking them more and more. This morning I decided to go super light (after last nights chocolate overload) and it was totally satisfying for just over 100 calories! The trick to making [...] -
A few weeks ago I saw Chef Michael Simon make a raw kale salad on The Chew. He sliced beets up real thin and cut the kale into ribbons. Then made a vinaigrette out of red wine vinegar and olive oil. I was immediately intrigued. So far I've only [...] -
I've had this idea for a quick creamy chicken dish for a few days now. It was time to give it a shot. The whole family LOVED it. I'm not joking. The only complaint came from Little Guy who declared his hate of mushrooms yet again BUT he ate everything around them. Fine [...] -
I made this on a total whim yesterday as I had leftover avocado after feeding the baby and leftover Spaghetti squash cooked from the weekend. I roasted the squash to serve with my Chicken tips instead of potatoes and it was AMAZING! Anyway, I'm getting sidetracked. So I'm sitting there staring [...] -
It's post holiday season. You know what that means? Leftover Crescent rolls to experiment with! Every year for Thanksgiving I buy a few canisters. It's the only time I do as I can't be trusted around them. Let's just say I'd beat you in the How-Many-Crescent-Rolls-Can-You-Eat-In-One-Sitting game and leave [...] -
Last week the kids and I tried parsnips for the first time and I've made them 3 times since. I wanted to figure out the best way to roast them. Yeah, that's it, the best way to roast them. You'll buy that right? Right? The truth is, I'm obsessed. I found myself [...] -
Yesterday just felt like a good day to stuff an acorn squash. I had one sitting on my counter for quite some time and it was just begging to be cooked. Since both husband and child don't like it I made a solo meal just for me and, well, it was DELICIOUS! [...] -
I bought a fennel bulb on a whim for the holidays not knowing quite what I would do with it. Of course I forgot about until yesterday when I was rummaging through the fridge trying to figure out what I wanted to make for breakfast. I pulled it out and stared [...] -
I probably should have warned you I was taking a holiday hiatus. I've been soaking up every moment of family time imaginable these last few days, leaving no time for anything else. Not even blogging! Shocking I know. ;) So I return not with a new recipe, per se, but to [...] -
Here's a quick idea for when you find yourself with a spaghetti squash but don't quite know what to do with it. Come on. Admit it. That's happened to you too. It's sure happened to me! I roasted this squash on Sunday... [...] -
I'm not sure if this will be a crowd pleaser, but I liked it and thought I'd share in hopes it inspires you to have some fun with kale. I loved the combination of sweet pear, earthy kale, salty bacon bits and creamy hummus. The only issue with the wrap was [...] -
I'm going on day 2 of counting Weight Watcher Points and I'm already inspired to come up with light, healthy meals for myself. It's like I needed the constraint of points to motivate me. Isn't that weird? Anyway, all morning I was brainstorming what to make for lunch. I wanted something flavorful [...] -
I have a friend who patiently cleaned, peeled and cubed a fresh pumpkin and then selflessly gave me some. Scratch that, a TON! I would have never even thought of doing something like that! But now that I have it in my fridge the ideas are flowing. First, I roasted some [...] -
CHRISTMAS COOKIES! YAY! Sorry. I'm so excited! Little Guy and I had tons of fun making and decorating cookies today. It may just be my favorite part of the holiday season. I loved it when I was a kid and now I get to do it with my own kids. [...] -
This may be my simplest idea yet, but it was so tasty and satisfying I had to share. Plus you guys know I'm a Laughing Cow Community Leader so I'm all about sharing fun ways to use their products. You guys may also know how I feel about pausing and making [...] -
I made this on Thursday. THURSDAY! I hate when I can't post something I've eaten within 24 hours. It just bugs me. Not sure why, it really doesn't matter when I post it, does it? Anyway, I did whip this up to cure a pizza craving and I couldn't be happier. [...] -
It's been awhile since I jazzed up a tilapia fillet. I've breaded them before, coated them in oats, flavored them like one of my favorite drinks and topped them with a fun salsa. It was time to bring nuts into the party. You are going to think I'm crazy but I've [...] -
Fun leftover turkey idea #2! Click here for leftover turkey idea #1. I had a little Gouda leftover from this years Harvest Salad and decided to put all the same flavors from the salad into a quesadilla. I just can't get enough of the smokey gouda/sweet craisin combo. It goes [...] -
It's the day after Thanksgiving and my refrigerator ROCKS! I have leftover turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, roasted Brussels Sprouts, a bunch of veggies and tons of miscellaneous fun stuff. I've already made stock from the bones (like this) and my first batch of soup, Classic Turkey Noodle. I hope to share [...] -
I'm so sorry I've been slacking in the Thanksgiving recipe department. I feel like a bad food blogger. Everyone else is posting festive ideas and here I've gone missing for a few days. Maybe it's because I'm not doing anything special for Turkey day. I finally got my holiday cooking [...] -
I just made a quick, tasty one pot meal the whole family ate without complaint! And when I say "whole" I mean WHOLE! The Baby, The Little Guy, AND The Picky Eater Husband! Here's the story…I was in NO mood to spend a lot of time on dinner. The thought [...]

Roni…I hope that you are totally better in the morning!
Oh man, Roni. Feel better soon!
Hoping you get well quickly.
I hope that you are resting. Focus on getting better, that is top priority. Hugs!
Relax! It’s just bronchitis. Even with a fever, your body can manage to homeostasis just fine. After all, our bodies had been perfected for thousands and thousands of years!
You probably burst a small vessel in your nose. No biggie. Remember: you’re not in the island of Lost and the sky hasn’t lighted up and you’re not travelling through time!! I just had to make a Lostie reference =D
Feel better soon! Lots of ♥ to you.
sending you hugs….feel better soon Roni!
Saying a little prayer that you can sleep peacefully tonight and wake up feeling better tomorrow.
Worrying will only make things worse. I found out I was 4 days pregnant because I had a tick bite and got lyme disease and they randomly ran a preggo test. I understand worrying about the baby and all that, but the stress is sooo much worse on your immune system than anything. Just let it be. It will be anyways.
WOW, i am a pretty faithful follower of all things “Roni” and this is the first time I have seen anything about you being pregnant? Congratulations! That is wonderful news. And I hope you feel better soon… and get some worry-free rest. :)
Hope you feel better soon. Hopefully nothing was going around BlogHer. I started feeling really sick today and spent most of the day sleeping.
Hey Roni, I haven’t commented since reading your exciting news so firstly congrats!
I completely understand you being worried about the baby – especially after what you have already been through – I was the same. But worrying won’t help the little one. Just rest, recover and gain your strength back. Hope you feel better soon xx
Take care Roni…. thinking of you xx
RELAX!!! Sleep, rest, medicate, do whatever you need to to get yourself healthy. It is the ONLY thing that matters. Work, blogs… nothing else makes a difference and will all sort itself out as long as you and that baby are healthy.
Can we help somehow? I bet people would be willing to guest post for a few days…
Did I miss something? Are you expecting a baby?
Rest, rest, rest my friend. Everything else is second right now and it will all be fine and ok to get your attention when you’re feeling better.
All the best!
I hope you feel better soon:)
Our bodies are amazing… even will illness and stress your body will do everything it can to protect that little growing bean sprout. (probably why your immunity has been down and you got sick in the first place!). I can only imagine how scary this is for you though–hang in there!
Taking care of yourself is priority numero uno! I hope you feel better soon.
As everyone has been saying, Focus on getting well, relax and put yourself and your baby first. Realize that even though you are a super person, you’re not “super-human” and sometimes things have to be put on hold. If you don’t post for a day or two your readers will understand. We’re all pulling for you!
It’s a new day! Hope you are feeling better.
Hope you feel better soon!
I must have missed your exciting announcement! Congrats about the baby! When you feel better, fill us in:-)
Feel better soon!!
Another saying I’ve heard that I like is:
Worrying does not empty tomorrow of its troubles. It empties today of its strength.
Feel better, Roni! And congratulations on the pregnancy!!!
I totally missed this but it looks as if you are pregnant! Congratulations and hoping you feel better quickly.
Feel better soon.
Thanks so much everyone! and in case you missed it…. http://ronisweigh.com/2010/08/back-from-blogher-blissful-beaming.html
Being sick does suck, but it won’t last long. Take care.
Feel better soon. HUGS.
The phrase I always use to dissuade worrying is: Don’t suffer future pain.
Hope you feel better!! Zicam and lots of oranges.
Did someone hack your blog?
not that I know of! Why do you ask?!?
Relax. :) Do some nice things for yourself today. When things seem to be the worst, they somehow have a miraculous way of working themselves out. I’m rootin’ for ya!
Congrats, Roni!! And don’t worry about being so sick right now (at least try not to!) I get horribly sick the week I found out I was pregnant too, and my daughter is a happy almost 5 year old now :)
Hugs to you and lots of luck in the next 9 months!
Get well, go to the doctor, sleep, perhaps dream. Wait. Eat wisely. You know..take care of yourself. Hopefully everything will be fine. Best, M.
WOrrying just increases stress and that is not good for sickness or baby. Relax! Breathe! and enjoy!
Breathe. It will all work itself out, it always does. Stop stressing and just realize you’re doing everything you can do at the time. Get some rest, you’re in my thoughts!
actually, a wise friend just told ME that prayer and anxiety cannot occupy the same space. that’s the great thing about prayer. it can cancel worry out!
What? I missed the baby news!! Congratulations! I’m trying to find it in past posts…but can’t. When are you due? I hope you’re feeling better….
All the best,
Anne
