Soup Loop

I had a quiet day at home. Not too much to report on. I've been feeling tired all day, maybe lack of coffee? The green tea I got isn't very nice :(. I made some soup with the chicken stock I made from yesterday's chicken. It came out alright, but I feel like i'm not very good at seasoning soup :/ it's often bland even when I use nice ingredients and stock. My hip is still out of whack, it feels like the muscles are all seized up and weak. I'll have to go see the osteopath again soon I think.

Visit with the NP

I had a nice meeting with my Naturopath today. We've decided that it might be a good idea to up my romotiv (it's a mix of hops and st.john's wort mostly) and add in the magnesium powder to see if it will help with pain and muscle problems. Other than that keep steady with cutting out gluten, sugar, and dairy. Fun stuff.

I cooked a chicken. It didn't end up being raw this time ;).

Funny Little Pub

Today was a pretty usual saturday. Cleaning, grocery shopping, resting. Although we also went out for a birthday ;). A good friend of ours had a birthday party out at a funny little pub/restaurant in the valley. Of course it was nice to catch up with people, but the pub was the main event for me. They had blue drinks! Not gross blue daiquiris  but electric blue things with a pineapple slice :D! They also had brightly coloured fruity looking drinks and one in a pineapple! Alas, I didn't want to put more stress on my poor liver so I did not indulge in any of these drinks, but now I know where to find them ;).

Pain levels were up and down today. Woke up feeling groggy and tired. I think it was the cheese. I also had normal milk with my coffee, and almost immediately felt my gut gurgling. Really not liking dairy it seems. Within the past few hours the tendons in my feet have become inflamed. I don't know if thats related but it's worth noting.

Long Day is Long

Looong day.

I had my deferred human bio final today. Well....if I hadn't already passed the class I would be concerned...but as I did i'm not going to be too worried about it. I know I did really well on a quarter of it...>.>...

I also had a migraine...all...day...It was only really bad on my way home, but man is it ever hanging in there.

On top of that i've had an MTX hangover and Bran has a stomach bug :(.

Now i'm going to go have a luke warm shower (since the cold water pipes aren't actually cold) and pass out.

Coconut Flour Muffins

Spent most of the day studying and doing a few house chores. Also brought Milo to the vet for his vaccines.

Now for something more interesting; I made some GF coconut flour muffins! The recipe I used is from Heavenly Homemakers. Mine didn't end up looking quite as lovely, but they are yummy! They may be a bit sweet and a bit oily though, so next time I make them i'll play with the recipe a bit. I was quite surprised at how much the coconut flour soaked up, also that it wasn't too eggy. I did use my lovely new electric beaters, so it came together in a flash :D I found that you would probably have to do a lot of mixing to get all the lumps out, so that something to keep in mind.

So Many....

Studying for my exam on friday. Why are there so many words?!?
