Independency & self cooking

The table is , the table the epi-center in our house , the table in the kitchen and the table in the dining room. The table is where we share our stories and cook and bake . Dealing with deadly fatal allergies mean that we have been inventive, creative , autonomous the way we prepare our food . Intuition and genuine cooking are ingredients and both inseparable while being deadly allergic .

Not being afraid and yet aware of the limitations and taking precautions and avoiding certain ingredients eternally from the kitchen !

I am proud and happy when I see my allergy baby , and the way she cooks herself . The pleasure and the determination to make her own food as a student . Being independent is a necessity while being deadly allergic . Your body is a constant source of your own safe feeling and safe being .

Michael Pollen is right with his latest book! Self cooking is al about being independent . I know how important food is for my daughter and her well being . Because there is always a treat . And at home things are safe ! The love of making and preparing your food and study traditions of food and ways you can take cate of your health while you need to be careful with so many products make you aware of the richness of genuine food and cooking . On the end it feels that the limitations are easily to overcome if you make the choice to invest in cooking and baking .

Fair food and home made with love and endless exchange is stories . I have seen my girls growing up and spending time with me . Standing at stools and curious about all the excitement in the kitchen. For my allergy baby the easiness and eagerness in the kitchen make her life and her waking with allergies so rich and exciting . 

These little breads with salmon , pressed lemon , avocado and Parmesan are ready to go for packed school lunch .

Départ

Quand mon homme se déplace ce soir pour un séjour lointain on se sent loin d'un coup , un peu perdu peu être , émerveillée par un sentiment de grand amour et éveillé d'un nouveau séjour attendu avec patience .

Ce soir on a besoin un peu de se retrouver , d'installer un nouveau équilibre aussi après un temps de cocooning depuis le début d'octobre .

Confiance et patience de l'aventure inconnu. 

Medications and allergies

We are struggling with allergy medication again . It seems that the medication is not strong enough and yet there doesn't seem to be another good alternative . Ever since we arrived in the UK we didn't find the right medication.

The hay fever medication she gets is just not right. Where the package tells one can take one pill a day she take soften four in a row .

Who can come up with an explanation and a good plan. To tackle the almost daily reactions. What is the best medication . Why is there a difference in prescription between all the countries . Why did we experience these variations in prescription between France, Switserland and Morocco and
now the UK? What is knowledge ? 

Some pills make one sleepy and other simply not bring the sufficient relief .

Our latest appointment with an allergist wasn't helpful and it even seems like there is lack of true insight in the allergy issue as a whole . My concern is: she needs the right medication to be safe. There is no need, as described in her file, for further consult as her conditions won't change . Her severe and life threatening allergies will stay. Innovations and new medications in the future might hopefully bring insights in her afflictions .

Pour les filles: repas du mardi soir

Pour les filles: repas du mardi soir. Une superbe tarte: pâte brisée fait à la maison, beurre - farine - l'eau froide et un peu du sel . 

Une grande cuillère de moutarde pour imbiber la pâte une fois dans un moule.

Puis rangez les tomates coupées en rondelles, thym, poivre. Une boule de mozzarelle coupée en petits dés et puis deux petits boîtes de sardines .

Enfournez pendant 35 à 40 minutes au four. Manger chaud ou tiède.

Petite salade verte avec une mélange aux framboises et myrtilles et vinaigrette a choix.
