Thanksgiving 2025

Good to know. At this point he is grown and I need to save my micro management for other more pressing topics, such as his current unemployed status! He is capable I suppose of advocating for his own health needs.

My dairy intolerance (which I just found yesterday is sometimes referred to as CMPI, which stands for Cows Milk Protein Intolerance) showed up in my 50s, after a literal lifetime of enjoying dairy.

So childhood or genetics doesnt always have any say in how it works.

I love my family, but they are the ones most likely to forget about my struggle, or to try to serve me something that has “just a little” dairy

God love em eh? We learned of my kids allergy when he reacted badly to a bagel at circa 8 months. They did an allergy panel at that point and over the years, the peanut has gotten much stronger. So he just avoids. As an adult I heard about my uncle who like you developed a strong allergy to pistachio at 40ish after eating them all his life. His face blew up. Sometimes we just cross a threshold.

Supposedly the tendency toward being allergic is hereditary but not the specific type of allergy.

Looks like we’ll be hosting some of our single / widowed friends / peeps with no fam nearby this year :hugs:

Depending on how many of them, we might go SUPER-non traditional and make hot pot.

But we got lots of time to plan yet.

I posted for inspiration. I have had their regular breakfast sandwich on a biscuit with bacon, egg, and cheese a dozen times, and it’s a good one.

I’m currently 120 miles away from that coffee shop. Have not tried that cranberry, chicken sausage, egg and Gouda sandwich yet!

Could sub Pumpkin Spice Gouda. LOL

I may make one.
