A great time to share he and I had on our first outing together. He still wasn’t used to dealing with someone with allergies but he survived and I would like to say thrived. But only he can truly answer that. We were eating out at a place in Myrtle Beach and we happened to […]
I just posted something and reread it and this phrase keeps sticking out in mind. The “NO eating clause”. I don’t know if it is because of the holiday season or because I think that should really be a contract. Contract you say? Yup! This contract I would have to sign agreeing to not eat […]
If you don’t know you can not get confused. Even if you do know you can get confused. It is okay to be confused. Life with allergies is confusing. Especially if you develop allergies later in life. Looking longingly… yeah I know that is probably not a word… at the foods that you could once […]

In today’s economy we have to save and so what sort of better way to save then have the food that you buy doing double-duty. For instance I had no idea until after playing around with watermelon that you could pick up a slice, without the shell of course, and squeeze it like a sponge. […]
No matter how many times I have the discussion with myself, I have to embrace these allergies. Yeah, I know I wrote embrace them, but seriously sometimes I want to throttle them. How dare they creep up now!! So many years being able to eat those foods and whammo… of course I do know now […]
