People shouldn't weigh when they have been sick

Dave 299.4
Shannon 212.6

I don't know if I'm really going to count my weigh in for this week. I was bed ridden for almost 6 days terribly sick and really wasnt eating much and I'm sure I will put it back on this week since I'm back up and around.

The mashed cauliflower experiment went horribly wrong... so wrong that I dont know that I can ever eat regular cauliflower again lol Seriously, it was disgusting. You can ask Dave... he even looked surprised as I spit a mouthful of it in the sink. And the smell... ugh I know cooked cauliflower isn't the most pleasing of cooking smells, its on the other end of the spectrum from, say... Bacon, but dear god my kitchen stunk, which is odd because I steam the stuff all the time to eat.

Not terribly much to report for this entry, because of being sick there are no interesting hiking or walking tales to tell. The highlight of my week was actually obtaining Adam Lambert tickets, he will be performing in Charlotte, NC on my birthday. After many refreshing attempts on ticket master AND being told on the phone it was sold out (3 minutes after they went on sale) I finally got the computer to tell me there were 3 tickets. So, Dave, Amanda and I will be making the road trip up in July to see him. With all of Dave's travel he has enough reward points to get us a free room at the Crowne Plaza so thats extra cool.

This weekend is the Skunk River Bike Rally. Dan and Dave will be running the cornhole tournament while I do duties as photographer for the organizers. We are donating some of our candles as door prizes and I will have samples there at the cornhole tent, but since I didnt pay to be a vendor I wont be "selling" any (plus I will be too busy for 10 hours of the event taking pictures) but I have had some coupons printed to hand out. Hopefully I won't totally exhaust myself, but I will have Sunday to rest.

I miss walking, but until my lungs tell me its ok, exertion is the last thing I need right now :(

Oh... and I've decided I want to figure out how one grows black peppercorns
