'Time Bomb'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm gonna have to start with the big things first and work my way to identifying the tricky places it creeps in.
So maybe almond pancakes and bacon tomorrow? Because when is bacon ever the wrong answer? Don't answer that. Bacon is never the wrong answer.
Bacon is never the wrong answer.
Again, you ain't never lied.
Oof, Dana.
I'm not opposed to gluten and wouldn't avoid it except...when I eat oatmeal or anything breadier than flatbread and tortillas, my gut does scary airy things that hurt. Do not like. I love my bread and pasta. I gave up lotsapasta because salad was a better easy meal choice, but OMG, not thrilled that my digestive system has gone on boycott.
Dana, I can't even.
Dana, at best an insensitive idiot. I am sorry.
I gave up sugar for lent, but only the big obvious sugar like desserts and I have already messed up some, but I am being aware and trying to remember and I did not have cake today at the department lunch, so that is something.
Dana, at best an insensitive idiot.
What msbelle said.
I need to give up white starches. I felt so much better when I cut out white rice, pasta, and potatoes. Something to work towards again.
It is day 5 since I fell on my knee. It has scabbed over pretty good, but now the scabs are cracking causing new pain and grossness. I still can't bend my leg easily, making sitting down, getting in and out of the car, and just about everything else painful.
Ugh, Dana.
I am craving steamed dumplings big time -- it's the random cravings for things with no readily available substitute that still kill me.
I got my sister the Gluten Free Asian Kitchen cookbook mostly for the dumpling recipes (and because it includes a recipe from the chef at a restaurant she likes and that I've eaten at with her several times). So that's an option. It's been out for a while, now, so your library might have a copy.
Oooh, yes, my library system has it, so I just requested it. Dumplings!
Hooray!
I haven't given up anything for Lent. This conversation makes me feel like a BLOB, esp since today is DH's birthday, so we went to Pacos for Mexican food and margaritas and wee mini cupcakes for dessert. I am way too full now, WAY too full. Oof. I think I'm going to waddle off to bed.
