hello sweet sorrow, goodbye fair nuts.

the long awaited results of my food allergy test came back, with a few unpleasant surprises.

once i recovered from the initial shock, the doctor went on to tell me i was mildly allergic to walnuts and pecans. there goes delicious pecan pie, delicious apple-walnut salad.

here goes the next 4 weeks almond-pecan-walnut free...
