I ended up making the lemon frosting. It's pretty tasty, and I don't usually like frosting. It was really easy to make. The hardest part was measuring out the powdered sugar. I think I'm glad I had time to let the butter soften, though. It would have been hard to mix the butter in if it had been cold.
When I see my primary care doctor on Monday, I'm going to ask to have my thyroid checked. I'm not sure that 50 mcg is the right dose. I've been having what I can only call cold flashes. They're not out and out chills. I don't shiver. I just feel utterly cold, and my skin goes all over goose flesh. It happens instantly, at times when I should be warm, times when I was warm just a second before. I notice it most when I'm in bed at night. The little bit of googling I did tells me that it's most likely my thyroid being out of whack. Cold flashes, like hot flashes, can be a symptom of menopause, but thyroid is more likely to be the culprit.
