do you ever have a moment

of pure idiocy? A total “what the heck was I thinking!” moment? I made this deliciousness. And DELISH it indeed is. Kaylee having food allergies caused me to start making my own (for safety reasons) granola cereal and bars. We both love this stuff. I had not made any for several months so a few days ago I whipped a batch up. Doesn’t it look OH SO YUM-O?


Well we have been enjoying big bowls of this for breakfast. We really love it. Well in all my “brilliance” I forgot that I had recently discovered that Regan is allergic (of course) to oatmeal. He had an awful reaction to the baby oatmeal. He was rashed out head to toe, and got the ever fun butt vomit. So my third morning of having a bowl of granola it dawns on me mid spoonful that Regan’s mystery mouth rash and butt vomit the last couple of days were not in fact a mystery. That they were caused by me! His Mama who just wasn’t thinking! And just as I had this revelation my older sister called me. So she got to hear all about it. And we laughed because what else do you do? I asked Jacck’ee if I should just throw my bowl away, and she said to just finish it as the damage was already done. So I did. And now I watch with envy as Kaylee scarfs down her breakfast granola and tells me, “delish Mama.” I’m not the only one out there that does stuff like this am I? You know have a sleep deprived moment of unthinking idiocy?

    Ugh, that’s no fun! Poor you and your poor kids with all their allergies!

    Been meaning to tell you THANK YOU for having us over the other night! Don’t know if you had planned to cook for an army, but it was SO DELISH!!! My mouth is watering just thinking about how yummy it was!

    ugh! The little things always get you don’t they! “butt vomit” – gotta be my favorite explanation of a bodily function! Way to keep your optimism while dealing with food allergies. I hate when my brain and mouth don’t coordinate their schedules – I have duh moments all the time!

    Oh dear. I’m so so sorry. I thought just avoiding milk was hard. Glad you can laugh about it now, but no fun still. Is regan going to get blood tests done to see what else he is allergic to so you don’t have to try everything yourself? Good luck!
