Hi Barb! Your message regarding food made me hungry, even though I had just finished breakfast. I am definitely going to try your chicken suggestions (never tried cooking with marmalade, but it sounds great). Concentrating on textures when sense of taste is weak is a good idea. I'm always conscious of color too, having an art background. The idea of a plate filled with boiled chicken, mashed potatoes, and cauliffower is almost too yucky to contemplate! Now sweets are another thing altogether - texture and color are of no concern when I'm facing anything chocolate. Ever since I've had PD, I've craved sweets. Halloween was rough. I had to be forcibly restrained from attacking a 4 year old "pirate" who wanted my last Snickers Bar. (just kidding - I really showed admirable restraint.) If you haven't seen the movie "Big Night" yet, drop everything and go. Trust me, you will love the food scenes. You can almost smell the aromas. Hint: make a reservation at an Italian restaurant for right after the show. You'll never make it home without an emergency stop for risotto. Aren't we lucky that so many foods still taste good?
