Making the most of it ... by Elizabeth Emerald

No need to review.

Corona confinement: day 4 of 10.

Ever since last night, I've been cuddling a maple-scented (unlit) candle and continuously sniffing it, so as to reassure myself I could discern its distinctive aroma.

This morning, I could barely smell it. 

As I'd feared: I'm on the cusp of the 4-5 day range for the likely onset of loss of sense of taste and smell.

I inhaled frantically, hoping my imagination had conjured this dreaded scenario.
Nope.

I forcefully blew my nose.
Yes! 

And I could taste my breakfast!

As to supper, Chuck called to say he would surprise me with one of my restaurant favorites. 

Throughout the afternoon, I worried that my sense of taste would vanish before it arrived.
Nope!

It was as I'd guessed--crab enchiladas with a side of sauteed peppers, onions, and mushrooms. You can be sure I relished every bite.   

Hopefully, I'll be able to enjoy the leftovers.
