I have to drink Orange Juice that has Calcium added to it otherwise I have heartburn for a week from one small glass.
It is quite irritating in more ways than one.
For me I really didn't start cooking until I was almost 40 and I taught myself to cook everything even though my Grandmother was a great cook and my Mother was pretty good as well, neither of them allowed anyone in the kitchen when they were cooking.
It's funny, I remember when I was little, I had this little kids' cookbook. Recipes for making hamburgers, etc. I thought it was so fun. But I guess I forgot about it.
Then, when I was 20-ish, long story short, I had to start cooking for my family. Again, I got into cookbooks and making these elaborate meals, again, forgot about it.
Then I was living alone and didn't think about it.
Once I got with Chow, I got back into it and now realize how much I really love it. You gotta eat anyway, and it's so nice to make something, out of, sort of, nothing, and please someone else (and yourself) with it.

I still remember the day almost two years ago that I binged on Christmas cookies at work. Holy buckets was I a BEEYOTCH that night! Luckily SD was working, because things would have been ugly. The smallest things set me off and I just snapped. It was not pleasant. I try to remember that when I'm tempted to stuff my face with sugar.
I feel your pain Mags... I'm going to have to do 2 days of early shifts next week then a couple of night shifts and then an early day shift on Friday... I normally never have to do this kind of shyt.. but we're working at a school district and have to work around the little darlings schedules... otherwise I'd tell them to put that shift work in their ****ing pipes and smoke that damn ****... LOL...
Ugh....that sucks. I want to tell my boss to put this schedule in a bong, never mind a pipe. lol

Lol...
I've never really gone with recipes to much at all. Of course, 95% of what I do is on the BBQ, rain, snow or shine. lol
But I usually like to make a salad, and potatoes. Mashed or baked.....either way, they'll have lots of butter, sour cream, and pepper on them. Or maybe some "Sidekicks"(noodles). Or chicken "Mr. Noodle", except I drain out all the broth and just put them on the side.
That's generally about it though. I'm really just a simple meat n potatoes guy. lol

That's all yummy and everything. But this is my concern, and I'm not surprised at all, lol, but put more veg/fruit into it! Just do it for me.
I think I've figured out what the next step is for me as far as career. The point was drove home to me this week.
Whiskey sampler?
