[Magdalen] Say Cheese!

[cady soukup]

Imagine my chagrin to find that I am allergic to all forms of cheese
and dairy -

Ghee is acceptable to the seriously fine-tuned analytic chemistry lab
that is my body. The non-dairy, fake stuff is abysmal (think "Elmer's
Glue" only slightly solid), although there is a cashew-based "cheese
substitute" that is almost edible.

It is a form of Lenten discipline, 100% of the time, or else extremely
unpleasant mayhem ensues. It's not as life-threatening as the
allergies to wheat (and now oats, rye, barley, and ... sesame
seeds!?). I should have been born into a family that kept dairy cows
in the back yard ... to reset my immune system from the start.

hugs anyway - Cady
