Day 9: remix

So my dude and i were out late last night and i didn't get a chance to look at day 9 until today, after i already ate. It said: "make something with your breakfast before you eat it". Well i ate flaming hot cheetos with cream cheese (its delicious, try it), and didn't do anything with it.

So the book says i can do whatever the fuck i want if i feel like it, so since i already couldn't do the breakfast thing, i had to do something else.

side story: I have a gluten allergy and have to eat gluten free foods. My parents sometimes suck at being accommodating to that, so tonight was no exception. They ordered pizza from the place i loved before i couldn't eat it anymore, and usually they get an antipasto salad just so i get something out of the deal. But it always sucks, cuz all i can smell is the amazing pizza as i eat rabbit food.

The worst person to be against eating gluten free with me is my dad. He refuses cuz he's ignorant about it and doesn't know exactly what's going on, even when i explain it to him for the millionth time. I've tricked him into eating gluten free lasagna once. I didn't tell him it was gfree, just that my dude made it, and he ate seconds. Then i told him it was gluten free and he was like "oh, hmm...", and doesn't put up as much of a fight.

So tonight was no exception, pizza was ordered, but this time, no salad. my mom says "there's salad in the fridge". Oh you mean that prepackaged crap that's super plain and i have nothing to add to it? nice dinner comin my way.

I just don't understand why we just can't go completely gfree, everyone eats gfree pizza or pasta or sandwiches, whatever. But no, i get my own separate thing and just have to deal, it sucks. I have to eat salad tonight? fuck that, i made my own pasta, only took 15 mins(ish), and you guys can kiss my ass.

So instead of making something out of my breakfast, i decided just to dedicate this blog entry to gfree food. It's good. REALLY good when you find the best stuff.

Take a look at that. can you tell it's gluten free just by lookin at it? no. you think you could tell the difference if you ate it? probably not, it just tastes like al dente pasta. and the fact that its in this amazing vodka sauce, its delicious!

I hate that people make gluten free into some fad or a "get skinny" diet. It's actually the complete opposite of a diet, you eat a ton of carbs - potatoes, rice, corn - and end up gaining weight. There's veggies and fruit of course, and meat is all good (as long as its not marinated in something i can't eat). I just wish my parents would get fully on board.

The worst part of the 'semi on board' of them is that my mom and brother eat my stuff sometimes. Not the full meals, just my snacks - my cookies, my chips, my granola bars. I caught my mom eating the last of one of my granola bars last night, and i was livid. It's my stuff. Not because i'm hoarding it, but because its the only shit i can eat. when they eat it, and i have none, I'm out, that's it. They can eat everything in the pantry, i can't, and it's like they don't get it.

I finally had it last night and told them all exactly that. That when it's gone, I have nothing to eat, and they can continue eating everything in there. My dude is the only person that is accommodating and will eat gfree with me. He makes food for me, he goes places that only i can go and doesn't complain, because he knows he can go anywhere else he wants if he wanted to, but i gotta eat too.

Today's entry wasn't exactly creativity, but it's sort of fitting and been on my mind.
