Best part of being sick in bed is being able to READ. Those of you with kids will know what I mean! Anyway, I have a large stack of books I want to read, and three days in bed allowed me to devour Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert (amazing stroke of six-degrees is that her lover's kids live in Australia, one in Canberra, and actually works with my best buddy here!!!) I loved the Eat section on Rome.
The Rushdie is still being read - another book that's easy to read, like hot chocolate it is enjoyable, goes down well, and you are sad when it is over. He is a master story-teller.
Pi was a gift from my Best Friend in The World before she went to Saudi for a year. I don't want to finish it!!
A reading session can only improve with 1970s and 1980s cookbooks, including a Robert Carrier classic (each 20c at oppy).

Life of Pi is great !
So jealous...of the reading, not the sickness - glad you're better!
Reading + Bed = Bliss
I hope you get more chances to do that again - minus being sick of course. (ooh that would make the equation:
(Reading + Bed) - Sick = Heaven
Augh, don't mind me, I've just come back delirious after trying to learn how to write html....
Nice fabric shelves there!
Yep, I know what you mean...a few days in bed, even sick, would be great! Running around with a baby is very busy!
