Allergy Season =P
Show us something you're allegic to.
Allergy season is something that hasn't ever affected me. I don't get hayfever and pollen, to me, is something that other people are constantly annoyed with during the spiring and summer months. In my case, allergies mean something year-round and should be avoided at all costs. Here are my two allergies:Coconut is something I wish I wasn't allergic to because I actually like the taste of it. When I was little, a friend of mine let me have a handful of shredded coconut at lunch, and I ended up sick for two days; it was the first and last time I tasted the stuff. My poor husband, who loves coconut desserts (especially cakes) ends up going without it most of time. It also makes eating Indian and Thai food quite difficult as this ingredient is used frequently in those recipes.
The other allergy I have is of the prescription drug variety: penicillin. This allergy was discovered when I was about five years old, and I was rushed to the hospital with a nasty case of tonsillitis. After the injection, I became even sicker and developed a horrible rash - I don't remember much, but I do know that I ended up having to stay in the hospital even longer because of it. It turned out that this allergy is hereditary - my great great grandfather was also allergic to penicillin, and sadly it was the cause of his death. Therefore, I'm always very careful to let people know about this allergy in case of an emergency.
You can now consider yourselves informed. =P
