I hope you feel MUCH better (as opposed to a bit better and able to pick up your weary head) soon. There are some good GIs in the area (I don't know why, particularly, but I've heard this from a few people who really liked their GI.) so hopefully you'll be in good hands.
OK, I can't seem to send an email for some reason and don't have time to figure it out, so I'll try it as a comment.
This might be a strange request, especially since you are living on crackers these days, but here goes. I remember that you have your grandmother's recipe book and I've told you about how we make her Pumpkin bread often often often. Anyway (hem and haw) did she have a good gingerbread recipe? Not the cookies, but the thick dark cake like they sometimes have at Trader Joes or Whole Foods? I have tried a bunch of recipes and none have been what I'm looking for. Oh, one was pretty good but it had a big dose of coffee in it which made me think twice about serving it to the small guys in the house. Thanks, Megan from Chandler

I suppose you've already gone to your apointment, but I have my fingers AND toes crossed that you'll feel better soon!
