Noah’s baby brother is going on a month old now. Man, time has flown.
It takes me back to the first days of Noah. His mom and I used to freak out about every little germ, we’d worry about who was coming over and whether or not they’d had a single sniffle in the past six years, and we’d make everybody scrub down and swish their mouths out with hand sanitizer before they could get anywhere near us or our kid.
Well, now we’re divorced. We’re co-parents. Which means that Noah is at my house half the time and he’s at her house half the time. Which means that mud, and goober, and leftover food, and especially microscopic invaders love to latch onto that kid and travel from one house to the next.
Well, that’s usually not that big a deal except:
A) Noah has a new baby brother over at his other house. And,
B) For the past week, I’ve been sicker than I have been in years.

your comment made me chuckle... when is it not a good time to try them Oreos..... I've been looking at them for weeks, but I can't get over how much they cost, so I haven't bought them.
Oreos heal everyone differently, so you have to keep trying until you have the right one; you do have to share though
I send my husband to Panera to get me chicken soup in a sourdough breadbowl when I'm sick.
not a fan of Oreos... don't eat them
Eating a whole quart of double chocolate fudge brownie ice cream with caramel sauce and oreos is very curative.
Honestly, I dont think much about dessert food when I'm sick. I'm more of a chicken noodle soup kind of guy.
Me too Tim.....
I remember them fondly, but look in the mirror -- or worse, photos of me I didn't pose for -- recent ones, and those cookies just look like pretty works of art!!
That's what people tell me about donating blood - guilt free cookies (I am the juice & cookie volunteer).
Went looking for those birthday cake Oreos (their 100th birthday pkg), but couldn't find them, anywhere!
Works for me!
No, no, no, it's time for Girl Scout Cookies - 8 varieties!!
I am so with you, popcorn haven's mint oreo cookie rocks my world.
Absolutely!
Hmm...depends on what kind of sick. Stomach flu sick? Oh no...only soda crackers then but pretty much any other kind of sick then yes.
Mama's home made chicken and dumplings cures EVERYTHING!
TRUTH! Or every different danish, bear claw and Muffin! I also tend to eat a whole bow of captain crunch when I'm sick..
I got mine at Safeway! They are (or were) celebrating oreos 100th birthday! They are amazing! I truly believe that even just the smell could heal.
And if you're talking about girl scout cookies they should be out in front of any grocery store with their tables up and boxes upon boxes of them for sale. I think u can look up your local troop on line and they'll come right to your door! I always freak them out and ask of they're made with real girl scouts.....
Aisle.
Stay at home Mom with 2 little boys (work from home,too ). Hubby works 12's 4 days a week and has morning and night classes the other 3 so, what happens when mommy gets sick? The same things that happen when mommy isnt sick!
And those Oreos are 100 years old now so they are ready to eat! Delish.
Aisle?? Hmmmmm...must look that up I just had a vocabulary brain fart
Any grocery store should have them in the nut isle.
However, I can teach you the BEST way to eat an Oreo.
Emily, where do you get those? I'm running out of sick time!
No... I know when I'm sick the last thing on my mind is food
Lol No, they're just almonds, but it tastes naughty while actually being good for you. we're currently having the girl scout cookie overload in our house...
The birthday cake oreos are my favorite! Its a little sad they are limited time only. Hope you feel better soon and that the oreos help heal! I know they work wonders for my pregnancy induced sweet tooth :)
Emily, that's an oreo?
Emerald cocoa roasted almonds dark chocolate flavor. That's all I'm gonna say. :)
You have to be sick to do that? Apparently I never got that memo.
:(
Sounds about right. Feel better soon.
