Having a cold is not helping...but maybe it is...

So I've had this horrific cold for about 10 days now. Three days into it I lost my sense of smell...and so largely my sense of taste (I'm assuming temporarily until I am completely well). Last night I started my latest venture into raw food. I mad this "pasta" of squash and zucchini with a creamy sauce. My husband, ever long suffering for my experiments, is coming along for the ride with raw. I ate my supper...reasonably enjoyably for not being able to taste much more than salt and slight sweet and experience nice textures. He did not enjoy so much =( The recipe called for miso, white miso to be specific, which he's since concluded he doesn't like...the frustrating part is I don't have any idea if I like it. I've had miso before...but not in this way...and I don't remember it well anyway. But I truly can not taste it at all...other than the saltiness...FRUSTRATING!

This morning I made a green smoothie with Mango, Beet Greens, Spirulina, little agave syrup, water and lemon juice. It tasted good...well the sweetness and the texture did...I'm wondering if I would feel the same way if I could smell...I'm hoping so.
