I’m so sorry that you experienced the profound loss of smell! Your recipe comes at the right moment, I need to take “something sweet” to a Boxing Day brunch - an antidote to bagels, lox, etc. This banana bread will be perfect! A continued wish for health & happiness during Chanukah!
Leah, oh my! I am so with you. Losing smell scared the heck out of me when I had Covid. I love this post and your ability to pivot and write so beautifully in the face of fear. Heal well. ❤️
Oh Leah! My heart hurts for you - you convey your fear so well. As much as I love this newsletter, I hope you can take a little time to heal and to be with your family (not that little kids lend to a relaxed state, but you know what I mean.)
I hope your sense taste/smell comes back fully ASAP! I know what you mean about not getting that satisfaction of eating when you can’t taste. I lose my sense of taste and smell every time I get a cold (its not Covid related) and I am still recovering now after almost three weeks of not tasting or smelling - I was hoping it would be back in time for Christmas, but now I’m not sure. It’s weird to eat something strong tasting like gingerbread and not really taste it properly! Thanks for a wonderful year of newsletters, I am looking forward to 2023 with The Jewish Table! Happy Hanukkah!
