I have had my senses of taste and smell stolen from me, just in time for Christmas. I have booked an expensive lunch for Christmas day and need to decide today to cancel if I want a refund.
This is what I'd do. Cancel the dinner. Then I'd go and buy the aldi frozen Australian prawns for $30 and pop them in the freezer and if my taste buds come back by then I'd still get a nice dinner. If not they're still there until I do. Oh and I'd also get a Christmas pudding.
