I don’t know what y’all did, but thank you for sending good thoughts my way! My migraine is FINALLY gone!!!!!
And, I took a shower and washed my hair!
Can you even believe it? I’m actually managing to have a productive day and have been busy working on some projects and phone calls this morning. I got in a two mile run before it started to pour and then ate some reheated soup for lunch.
This worked very nicely with my “eat the entire fridge and freezer” campaign as well as “feta makes it betta”. I made this coconut lentil soup last month and it was just as good, if not better, second time around.
Pretty much, I’m just putting feta cheese on everything. I don’t really have a reason. It’s just good.
I can’t stop reading!

I just wrote a new post about food and wine pairing here!
Enough exclamatories for one afternoon. Be well.

April 28, 2010 at 12:26 pmi LOVE feta cheese. I had a kale salad with some plus tofu and roasted red peppers yesterday and it was delicious. I love that a little bit of it goes a loooong way.

April 28, 2010 at 12:44 pmI love that soup too, I actually wrote a review of it on my blog! Good stuff!
Adam
April 28, 2010 at 12:56 pmWoah, coconut and feta? I have tried vegan cashew cheese and coconut, they need a vegan feta~!
Lauren
April 28, 2010 at 1:00 pmNo really, feta really does make everything betta!
Lauren @ A Fit Foodie
April 28, 2010 at 1:00 pmFeta does make everything better!! I am out and need to pick some up at the grocery on Friday! I’m missing it in my life!
Anna @ Newlywed, Newly Veg
April 28, 2010 at 1:05 pmYay!! Glad your headache is gone.
And I know that you already got a MASSIVE load of book requests, but if you’re looking for an UHHHHHmazing book of poetry, have you read The Last Time I Saw Amelia Earhart, by Gabrielle Calvocoressi? It is seriously awesome. I read it for the first time a few years ago, but I go back to it and re-read it every once in a while! It reads almost like prose, but the imagery is amazing.
Okay, last book rec, I promise! 🙂
allison @ livingoneday
April 28, 2010 at 1:06 pmyummm feta is my favvvvvorite. i made poached eggs for lunch today (im sick) and my dad came home from work just in time. they turned out perfectly!! 3 minutes was exactly the perfect time. i put sriracha on top and all was well!
Amanda
April 28, 2010 at 1:11 pmI’m glad your migraine is finally gone! I don’t get them often, but they’re quite debilitating when they do come around.
Your soup looks delicious… and I agree that feta can only make it better! I think I like Greek salads so much for that reason!
Lisa
April 28, 2010 at 1:22 pmGlad you are feeling better. I’ve never thought about putting feta in soup! What a cool idea! I like putting feta in my scrambled eggs with some spinach. Best breakfast!

April 28, 2010 at 1:24 pmAt the risk of being a big ‘ol party pooper, might feta be triggering some of your migraines? :/ Cheese often gave me a headache (pain/fullness in the sinuses/behind the eyes, but not exactly a migraine) and I have read about some varieties being migraine culprits, which is why I mention it.
Kait
April 28, 2010 at 1:27 pmFeta is definitely one of the best cheeses to use as a topper, so delicious!
kelsey@snackingsquirrel.com
April 28, 2010 at 1:32 pmomg that cow pic scared me LOL!
so glad feta made it betta <3
Tracey @ I'm Not Superhuman
April 28, 2010 at 1:41 pmI’m with you. Any cheese (feta or otherwise) makes just about any food better. Mmmm.
Jessica @ The Process of Healing
April 28, 2010 at 1:49 pmYay, I’m happy that you are feeling better!
Sarah (Oc2Seattle)
April 28, 2010 at 1:50 pmFeta is sooooo good, do you ever need a reason to use it? I love it in couscous, on salad, on toast with jam as a dessert, I could go on and on 😉 Perfect accompaniment to clearing the fridge dishes.
Morgan @ Life After Bagels
April 28, 2010 at 1:55 pmyour good mood feels contagious 🙂 glad your headache is gone

April 28, 2010 at 2:25 pmI love feta and it really does make everything better, EVERYTHING. 🙂
Jennie {in Wonderland}
April 28, 2010 at 2:31 pmI only eat goat’s feta – can you guys not get that in the US? and it’s sooooooooooo good! It’s the one reason I can’t seem to go vegan. I’ve given up all things cow, plus eggs and everything, but goat’s cheese is just GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH………
Especially grilled goat cheese on a warm asparagus salad. Is there anything better? Truly.
Samantha
April 28, 2010 at 2:35 pmJust read your food/wine pairing article. Very imformative-thanks!
I like the tip of eating spicy with a mild wine–so true!
And feta—yum! any cheese is a good cheese for me.
Kellie@obsessivelyhealthy
April 28, 2010 at 2:47 pmThanks for the book suggestion. I have been dying to try a good book. I just can’t seem to get into any lately. Very excited to try American Wife.

lisa
April 28, 2010 at 2:50 pmGlad your migraine went away – those are the worst!
I love feta too, but don’t buy it often enough. I’ve been on a new cheese kick, trying some cheeses that I’ve never had before. Yum yum!
Freya @ Brit Chick Runs
April 28, 2010 at 2:57 pmI really, really dislike feta…I SO badly want to like it – but I don’t. ALAS!! I say sheep’s milk cheese all the way 🙂
Glad the migrain’s gone!
Lisa @ bakebikeblog

April 28, 2010 at 3:22 pmFeta certainly makes it betta….the other day I had the most delicious breakfast sandwich from a nearby deli-an english muffin with egg, spinach, tomato and feta-warmed and toasted in a paninni press! melted feta mmmm…..
eatmovelove
April 28, 2010 at 4:00 pmThere is nothing that cheese cannot top. Nothing.
And I always find soups taste better the second day myself…lasagnas too…hmm. It’s all good 🙂

April 28, 2010 at 4:47 pmI love your “eat the entire fridge and freezer” idea. I need to do that. Sometimes perfectly good food makes its way to the back of my fridge only to be forgotten about and tossed later
🙁 Something to work on!
Nora@LiveLifeEatRight
April 28, 2010 at 4:50 pmhahahhahahha I showered for the first time in 3 days today…gross but whatever. I almost DIED when I saw that cow picture! You are hilarious! And of course Feta is the best…have you ever had Mt. Vikos Barrel Feta? I worked in the cheese shop for a while at my grocery store (worked in the bakery so it was a natural progression) and tried this …thought I died and went to heaven. Barrel aged feta is like NO OTHER!
Katherine
April 28, 2010 at 5:05 pmwhat a great looking soup! I’m going to be emailing you soon; look out for it! (long story). Anyways, love reading your blog and hearing all your thoughts

April 28, 2010 at 5:37 pmI have a tub of feta in the fridge and am putting it on just about everything! My favorite simple combo is cucumbers, tomatoes, balsamic vinaigrette, and then feta!
Lauren @ Eater not a runner
April 28, 2010 at 5:58 pmI’m not a feta fan! More of a blue cheese girl 🙂

April 28, 2010 at 6:03 pmDon’t you hate when you have occasion for multiple exclamation points, but you start to feel like you sound like a valley girl or over-caffeinated middle-schooler when you use them, no matter how appropriate?
Rebecca @ How the Cookies Crumble
April 28, 2010 at 6:05 pmFeta really does go with everything! Rock on feta!!
Dana
April 28, 2010 at 6:45 pmGlad your feeling better. Feta in soup? Something I never thought to do!
