The C in COVID stands for canker sores?

Rolling into day 3 of COVID, my wife and I have been comparing side effects. One (and I know this may be just a coincidence) that’s unique to me is I developed two huge canker sores directly under my tongue. Fortunately it only hurts a lot when I talk, eat food or drink. With limited appetite this is not really a problem, but then I got the b-day present my parents left for me while I was out of town:

The Skitt-dilemma

Skittles and Starburst are my favorite candies ever. But to even look at them in packaging right now is making the back of my mouth fill with bile. However, we recently got an air fryer, and I found quite a few videos on using one to create freeze dried treats. Maybe out of sheer morbid curiosity I’ll make a batch tomorrow and then enjoy them when the canker sores clear up. Of course…that’s probably just inviting a new batch of sores to setup shop in my mouth, so maybe I just take the plunge right now?

Appetite is still jacked

Only things I’ve found to sit well in my stomach today:

  • Mint hot cocoa
  • Pepsi
  • Bag of lime rice
  • Bag of trail mix
  • Cheese stick
  • A couple apples
