Back to Basics

Well, it's been a bit of an interval. I have not been maintaining the blog because it's been hard to do so from my mobile devices - an issue I plan to fix asap - and I kind of ran out of ideas for food. I've been recycling a lot of recipes at home and even cheating a bit out of laziness: ordering food in, going to restaurants. And I've paid for it of course, with a new flare-up of my IBD. So it's time to go back to the Specific Carbohydrate Diet and that means cooking everything from scratch once again. This takes more time, often costs more money, but is a sure way of ensuring you do not ingest hidden starches or sugars.
