I ate chocolate covered Strawberries on Valentine’s day and woke with a migraine.
I only ate four!
I love food and it does not always love me! I don’t do well-eating grain and sugar. Bloat, brain fog, and bad sugar numbers!
So, I need to be creative in the kitchen… not my strong suit!
And then! Dun, Dun, Dun! I found Cristina Curp from The Castaway Kitchen on Instagram!
And she changed everything for me! Cristina is an amazingly prolific Chef and recipe developer that faces crazy health challenges and cooks around them creating amazing food that is super easy to make and tastes absolutely amazeballs!.
Cristina and I get personal about food and health. She is funny and smart! You will love her! I do!
SHOW NOTES:

So, one afternoon I stopped by to check on him, he was sitting in the kitchen eating a tuna sandwich… completely naked with the neighbor lady Mrs. Martin, also naked, drinking tea out of my mother’s favorite teacup.
I stopped cold when I saw them; too far in the kitchen to back out they saw me. I quickly averted my eyes as to not see my father BRAVADO lying on the chair to Mrs. Martin, who’s seventy-something landing strip stared at me like an old Billy goat who was sticking his tongue out.
