So I got wheated a couple weeks ago pretty badly (by accident!) and I have learned a very important lesson:
I'm now only moderately allergic to wheat.
The allergic reaction is still there don't get me wrong but I didn't suffer the near instant death symptoms I had before. And I did do the scientisty thing and waited about a week and tried wheat again (on purpose this time) and same thing. Moderate allergic reaction.
I will not be re-introducing wheat into my diet but it means that I can try to eat out again more than once a year, and maybe I can actually enjoy the meal instead of being terrified the next bite would send me into anaphylactic shock.

“I had a dream, though,” I say, thinking back. “I was following a mockingjay through the woods. For a long time. It was Rue, really. I mean, when it sang, it had her voice.”
“Where did she take you?” he says, brushing my hair off my forehead.
“I don’t know. We never arrived.” I say. “But I felt happy.”
...
Peeta pulls the chain with the gold disk from around his neck. He holds it in the moonlight so I can clearly see the mockingjay. Then his thumb slides along a catch I didn’t notice before and the disc pops open. It’s not solid, as I had thought, but a locket. And within the locket are photos. […]
“Your family needs you, Katniss,” Peeta says.
My family. My mother. My sister. And my pretend cousin Gale. But Peeta’s intention is clear. That Gale really is my family, or will be one day, if I live. That I’ll marry him. So Peeta’s giving me his life and Gale at the same time. To let me know I shouldn’t ever have doubts about it. Everything. That’s what Peeta wants me to take from him.
...
He puts the chain with the locket around my neck, then rests his hand over the spot where our baby would be. “You’re going to make a great mother, you know,” he says.
...
As I drift off, I try to imagine that world, somewhere in the future, with no Games, no Captiol. A place like the meadow in the song I sang to Rue as she died. Where Peeta’s child could be safe.
....

I don't know what's so special about tonight, but there's a party or something similar going on down the street that's blaring the bass to whatever music they're playing, and have been for hours.
It's 2:30 am, guys, and I'm a notoriously light sleeper. Please. Turn it down and go home 😮💨 Some of us have kids that are going to be awake in five hours

trader joes frozen green curry is currently saving my ass lunch wise because they're 1. convenient 2. tasty 3. PAERVE AND KOSHER FOR PASSOVER*. however they are getting me back by 1. being really annoying to fucking open (the plastic cover is REALLY stuck on and hard to pull off without spilling boiling curry on yourself) and 2. it always fucking boils over in the microwave if you cook it the way the box instructions tell you to

One really forgets how delicious Weetabix are until you randomly decide to buy them again after like 5 years and become addicted and go through one tower/packet in four days. Like for something that theoretically sounds like it wouldn't be that good why are they so good

Ok so look what i got at work today
Someone thought it was a quarter and when I told them that it was not, in fact, American legal tender (i don't even think it's legal tender in Germany anymore) they said they didn't want it back and told me to either keep it or throw it away so now it's mine

Found a dutch oven for like, astoundingly cheap yesterday and was finally able to try baking bread in one ! This is a poppyseed rye that I darkened with some molasses and cocoa powder, mostly out of curiousity (i often use molasses but this is the first time trying cocoa as well. Smelled super nice while baking). I added those after the first rise and didn't do a whole lot of kneading when i did, and it seems to have marbled, if the bit of exposed interior (didn't grease the dutch oven, and that part of the crust stuck) is anything to go by. Definitely overbaked it a little, but super happy with how much oven spring I got.
Also, the jams from last night. Very pretty reds.
