Gotcha. Yeah, I'm a baker, so I get pregnant women sometimes who come in and can't eat certain things. I think that's smart. Better safe than sorry. There's so many ways to get food poisoning. I know of pregnant women who wouldn't give up their lox and cream cheese on their bagels...that just seems irresponsible, but…

Well, at least this won't be the French hatefest I'd feared when I read the headline. It was an American cheese.

A word of warning to all of you with untreated/under treated chronic pain:

Hah - I have a huge rant about House, MD and addiction and dependency that actually got my my first writing gig. Let me see if I can find the unedited-for-space version,... yup!

No joke, my coworkers actually make fun of me for eating healthy. I snapped the other day at one, pointing out that if she were my size she wouldn't be eating the way she does now.
