'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I got myself out of the house, and checked out a local tire place, where the owner was very nice. He has to order the tires, though, so they don't get in until maybe 10:30 tomorrow.

After, since I was out that way anyway, I went to Penzey's Spices and picked up some Berbere powder which should add considerable ZING to my homemade Lamb Helper. Then, TJ's for general purpose Stuff. They now have a house-brand cultured coconut-milk "yogurt" so I'm giving them a try, since it's $0.50 less than the comparable So Delicious.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Wait, what? It is? Hell, maybe I'm allergic to ALL food, considering I'm anxious about 100% of the time.

It can be a symptom of a severe allergic reaction. It took me a really long time to figure out that I was having anxiety attacks and other weird reactions not long after eating. Eventually I narrowed it down to mushrooms, and now I don't feel like I'm going to die after I eat lunch. Progress!

True food allergies are less common than food intolerance, so... that seems unlikely?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Penzey's in Arlington? I totally just drove by there. We are always circling each other!

Interesting, shrift! Now I'll be paying more attention to when I get anxiety attacks and if some food item might be triggering it.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Now that I know anxiety is a symptom of a food allergy thanks to my mushroom misadventures, I probably should keep a food diary. Except that seems like a lot of work. Why can't I have a JARVIS?

loseit.com is pretty useable, I find (you can scan barcodes!). Although keeping a food diary makes me super-squirrely about food, it has been helpful.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

During my blueberry crisis this morning I didn't actually buy anything useful for lunch or dinner.

What to do?

I've tried using a couple different sites & apps, but since I cook a lot, I get really bored with inputting all the ingredients and lose steam after a couple of days.

Google loves stalking you, Jesse!

Amazon just messaged me that my hemispherical silicone molds have been delivered and now I just want to go home and try to make Thanksgivikkuh nuggets.

I so want these. very jealous, -t.
