Irritable
Ears clogged, headache, antibiotics for likely infection, if it doesn't resolve, off to doc. Ugh. Good thing I has some left from the last time because my ears today were murder.
On the othe hand, been food logging for 5 days in a row, so this is a good thing.
Trying to make changes whiel sick sucks, but better to try than to not bother at all.

That's interesting that you bring that up, Amy.
I really prefer Julia be and stay vegan. I'm not sure how she'll feel as an older child, but our compromise was vegan til 12 or 6th grade, whichever comes first. Then if she wants to eat nonvegetarian, she can learn to cook it for herself and Dad, and will be big enough to reach the stove and handle things safely. And prehaps by then we'll have an idea on the PCOS front for her -- if she inheritted or not.
Of course, I'm hoping like hell she won't even want to bother going there because it's helping me with my PCOS junk so much to stick or organic vegan and if it comes right down to it, it's an easy, practical expression of faith. Or it is to me.
The seventh principle for UU's is "Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part." It usually interpreted in "green" or "eco-friendly" extensions. We try to recycle as much as we can and we observe as much "green" housekeeping possible. But I have to agree with this article... the biggest impact one person can make is to switch if they can. Food is a big deal.
On the tofu front, what kind do you get at home? Have you tried the smoked or grilled? It's pressed tofu that's firmer. I forget the brand name... starts with "M."
Or you can get firm or extra firm Nasoya and then press it yourself by wrapping it in paper towels or a clean dishcloth, placing it between plates, and setting a heavy soup can on the top plate to press it down. Or firm silken?
Freezing it in it's original packaging and then thawing it before use also changes it to be a bit chewier/meatier in texture.
Julia likes it just about any whcih way, but she's partial to "nuggets" because it's easy finger food for her.
