It's Wednesday already!

Time really flies. Today is already Wednesday and almost half a week had past. This week I am trying not to push myself too hard as I just recovered from stomach flu and really feeling slow right now. The challenge this week is to try and help the kids regain their appetites back and let them gain some weight back. All except Hao, who is the last one standing and not affected by the epidemic. His appetite is also good and is eating more everyday. Now instead of getting food to share with his siblings, he had to get his own adult portion now when we go out for meals. Am quite happy to see him eating well.
Monday was a slow day for me as I was still tired out. I cook a simple Yong Tau Foo Mee Sua soup for the kids as they were not really up to any real foods and were more to drinking soups instead. Maybe we need to replenish the water in our body. They ate up all that I cooked that day.
Yesterday was back to rice for dinner again. I thought hard what could whet up their appetite and decided to make some crispy pork chop with sweet and sour sauce on the side (I added corn in that). Both Ee and Min ate more. Hao liked it too. I also had plenty of soup again and fried some simple vege and also their egg omelette with hot dog slices. At least they are starting to eat proper foods again.
Today, at the request of Ee, I will be making sushi again. Sushi is usually eaten on Fridays as one of my all in one friday meals, but since he told me he wanted it, I thought just to make it for them as recovery food also. It's also simple enough to prepare and easier to clean afterwards. I've more or less prepared the stuff so I'll just cook the rice and wrap it up later.
