Are smoothies “cooking”?

This is a blog about my experiences following an accident which occurred Nov 15, 2013. As I write this today I expect this blog to contain recipes for things to eat when your jaws are wired shut – which, I am told, will be my situation starting this friday night. A stylistic note: I’m going to avoid using other people’s names where possible, and will be generally vague about people other than myself. Not because I’m angry at them, or afraid for them, or anything like that, but because I want to keep the “voice” and focus of this blog on my experience and feelings.
