I like broccoli... so yeah, I really only would eat a fruit salad. And even then, rarely, cause these days fruit makes it feel like my throat might close.

oh noes...is you allergic to fruit, Navy? Or do you just not like it? :P
Broccoli is awesome if you mix it with chicken and a light cheese sauce. I'll eat it plain, but I like it best mixed with something else ^_^
btw this laptop rocks now that I have purged it of Vista :D took some clever finagling (sp?) on the bf's part, but it is 7 functional.

Um...sweetie... I'm pretty sure as a nurse that that's doctor code speak for "I give you ten years, tops,before your arteries put the roto-rooter guy on speed dial, and you're not listening to a word I say are you..."

Nurses aren't allowed to know doctor code speak. It would break doctor patient confidentiality.

Hey MSA we used to do that. we would get them to make the dough for mini pizzas from scratch and then choose their own toppings. on lazy days we'd use English muffins. we also taught them to make Gnocchi, Naan, Chapati, Hommus etc etc. back when I was coordinating I was really into nutritious afternoon teas and enhancing the kids life skills and culinary experiences. ah how I miss those days..I suggested some of this stuff at the place I work now and got some weird looks. so sad.

I remember talking about salads before. I love me some salad with:
Romaine and spinach lettuce
Garbanzo Beans
Kidney beans
Corn
Peas
Broccoli
Cauliflower
red onion
red bell pepper
yellow bell pepper
grape tomatos (but only if they look really good. I can't stand biting into one that is bad but you have to swallow because that's the only polite way to deal with it)
black olives
Sunflower seeds
bacon bits
honey mustard dressing
black pepper.
Yum.
Maybe that's what I'll have for lunch today.

mmmm Rugbug I am really glad I was eating a salad when I read your post or I would have had to go get one... yummy
Boris I completely understand. The last school I taught at had an after school session and they were forever feeding kids things like fried burritos... so so unhealthy argh
and every time I brought this up and suggested other foods they looked at me like I was nuts
Navy ...what you're off fruit now as well??
Just wait Zeek...oh and did you just love Barney's perfect week?

It's fuzzy-minded liberal thinking like that that gets you eaten.

How did we get from "Woodland Creatures, YUM!" to salad? That just seems wrong somehow.

Curious what you do Boris. Sounds like the facility I used to work in.

I still like fruit, some fruit I like a lot. I've always been fond of it. But after eating most fruits I always found that my mouth and throat felt mildly itchy. But it wasn't bad enough to stop me eating it, I just ignored it. In recent times it's been getting a lot worse. It takes less fruit to get me quite irritated, and at one point last year after a particularly banana-full banana milkshake (about 4 whole bananas got blended into it) it really felt very difficult to breathe and was scary.
So yeah, I decided that I might be a tad allergic to fruits. I still eat it, just more sparingly. And I still love orange and apple juice.
