I'm doing fairly well, Thanks for asking . I have a few persistent issues that I fear are here to stay or at least linger
Too bad we can't smell each others cooking Our house smells of cookies again today.

Hello

Like me you have an adversity to metal, so I loathe aluminium and have been trying to find a ceramic frying pan or skillet as you Americans call them. Would you have any ideas?

The first batch of pretzel rolls. I wasn’t going to eat bread for a while, but that’s out the window!

Sourdough starter is in the refrigerator, so as long as I leave her in there, I can’t bake.

Not true. Lots of things can be baked without sourdough,

Good morning Marie Hope life is treating you well . My issues are still bothering me and now I have a new problem. On Monday I was collecting eggs and on my way back and started up the steps when my right knee gave out. I fell backwards and landed on the ground, catching myself with my left hand. I broke my hand in two places. I had surgery on Friday, they put a metal plate and pins in my wrist. Needless to say, it hurts a lo, but I'll get through it like I get through everything else. Thank you for asking about me.

@Grammy60, I hope I'm not out of line for jumping in here...

6 years ago I broke my right wrist. It took a year for it to come back to full use. I'd say it's at 95%, and is as far as it's gonna come back.

What I really wish someone had told me was that I needed to keep moving my elbow and shoulder as well, as much as I safely could. I had to rehab the wrist, obviously, but also the elbow and shoulder, because use it or lose it, and I didn't use it.

I didn't even realize how compromised my range of movement was until I tried to reach back behind my head and turn on the dome light in my car. I couldn't get my hand anywhere near it. I told my physical therapist, and he seemed surprised that the medical doctor hadn't addressed that with me.

Best wishes for a good recovery. Believe me, I know what you're going through.
