Earth cannot live by Bread alone....

Peace, I have a complex relationship with bread. I like some bread a lot and others not at all. To me, bread MUST be tantalizing or it’s not worth it at all to me. Since being on this HCG diet I haven’t been able to eat a ridiculous amount of gluten. And I like the results. The hCg diet is a low calorie, no carb diet that lets you eat the smallest amounts of bread and eat them desiccated. As I’m making my way back to normal eating, I realize that I’m not a big bread eater. I’m not. A biscuit holds no fascination for me except as a vehicle for vegan sausage gravy. Yes, I will admit KFC might find me at their drive-thru requesting 3, but you can check the calendar and see I’m due. Sliced bread is only appealing with peanut butter or lettuce tomato and cheese. I am not one of these people who have a slice of bread on my dinner plate unless it is part of a sandwich. There is a loaf of bread on my countertop that has been there a month. It’s store bought and sliced. What it is not is

My skin is falling off!

Peace Y’all, I hope I can get this build up and running before I fall asleep. I had a violent skin reaction this morning and I had to take some Benadryl. Drowsiness is a side effect and I feel it coming down on me like a heavy blanket. I believe it was a reaction to the polyester in one of my favorite dresses. I generally don’t wear polyester and got rid of most things from my wardrobe. But this dress was a favorite. Oh well. It will find the Goodwill soon enough. I need to make that cotton slip that I have been promising myself I’d make. That might have aided me this morning. I have eczema. I have had it all my life. It is relation to the trilogy of asthma-sinusitis-eczema. My mother and brother have asthma so bad that they have both been hospitalized because of it. I suppose in the grand scheme of things, what I suffer from is not so bad. It could be worse. Time to be a bit proactive…. Google is everyone’s friend. As a child, I remember getting steroid shots and UV treatments.
