what to do when you can't do anything

i had a medical procedure this morning that required me to stay off my feet for the rest of the day.

knowing that i would be looking for things to do after i'd plowed through the "now playing" list on my tivo, i had cleverly picked up a 3-ring binder and some sheet protectors at the dollar store last night. and today, after i'd finished my backlog of survivor reruns, i set to work organizing my recipes.

very few of my recipes are actually kept on proper recipe cards. the vast majority are emails, newspaper clippings and photocopies. this storage method is perfect.

now i feel like cooking something.
