Generally, if you choose and seek out good health, it takes a lot of work. Bad health is easy – you don’t care what you put in your body, you eat what you want. It is very passive. But living that way has consequences, causes all sorts of health problems…and the usual solution to those [...]

Living with a dragon
Posted in celiac, food, food allergies, healing, health on November 10, 2009 | 7 Comments »
My whole life, I’ve had skin problems, mostly eczema, and food allergies. When I was very little, I couldn’t eat chocolate, dairy, among other things. Those are the ones I remember the most. I always had to sleep with a humidifier in the winter and an AC in the summer to keep my skin from [...]
A house offer and really flat pancakes

B and I went looking at more houses today, and the first one we looked at, we really loved. It’s in a nice, safe, quiet neighborhood that is six miles from my work and close to a big lake. The house backs up to a golf course (so no one could build behind the house! [...]
Friday Question

Hello!
I do realize I have pretty much fallen off the blog world lately. I am sorry — there has been lots of running around, some feelings of having my words locked up and not free flowing (which only gets worse the longer I go without writing), along with some normal, and not unexpected, mostly minor [...]
Missing summer food
Posted in celiac, food, food allergies on May 30, 2008 | 3 Comments »
Most of the time, I’m ok with my food allergies.
It means I don’t eat out very often, but I can usually find fun stuff to make at home. I don’t actively miss the stuff I can’t have — mostly.
But I think I am learning that summertime makes me miss food more, maybe because summer food [...]
You are what you eat

Like many, many people out there, I have food allergies, so I always have to think about what I eat. It doesn’t define me, but it does mean I have to check the ingredient labels, and then double-check, for everything I eat. It means I often have to say no to food that people offer [...]
A visit to the state farmers’ market

Mikki and I went to the state farmers’ market yesterday, what a neat place. The first building we were in had all sorts of antiques and furniture and home decorations and lawn decorations.
If you look closely, you can see me reflected in the ball
Large ornaments for really large christmas trees?
A really big watering can, for [...]
Dear Earthfare

I think I am in love with you. I am certainly in joy and in happiness and in gratitude with you.
You see, you understand me. You understand food allergies — not able to eat gluten, not able to eat dairy. You understand that just because I have food allergies, that shouldn’t mean I don’t get [...]

Dear Body,
You have been unhappy lately. I’m particularly talking to you stomach; you sinuses; and you, well you know who you are.
I am aware of your displeasure. Because we are a team, your unhappiness in turn becomes my unhappiness. I’m sorry I let it go on for as long as it did.
As the management [...]
There are days…
Posted in celiac, daily, food on August 21, 2007 | 1 Comment »
when I wish I could stop NOT eating wheat/gluten. There are days it frustrates me more than others, when it would be nice to not have to think about what and where I can eat.
Breakfasts and dinners, I’m fine with. It’s lunches that make me want to just say, Feck it all, I just want [...]
