Hello all! I am relatively new here but I love all the positivity and was wondering if I could run a problem by you guys??  I have a pretty long and extensive history of awfulness that I would love some help on :)

About 3 years ago I was diagnosed with a yeast infection. I took 2 full years of aggressive treatment to finally get rid of it. My next step was fixing all the damage that the yeast infection did. It basically eroded any skin or tissue it came in contact with in my vagina which caused extreme pain due to exposed nerve endings etc.  I basically had to use boric acid every night and just live with the pain to give everything time to heal.  

( OK , SO HERE'S THE PROBLEM: )

Has anybody had any luck with Candistroy? I've been thinking of trying it, my last infection was difficult to get rid of :[

Thanks!

 breakfast- a quart of celery juice 
lunch- raw cinnamon roll
snack- raw chocolate
dinner- mixed berry/cabbage/banana smoothie
snacks- miso soup, 6 clementines, more chocolate

my house is almost entirely out of veggies :(

I have been depressed and upset today. Probably mainly because I should be happy - my husband surprised me with a vacation/trip to New York (Watkins Glen) to a Farm Sanctuary with saved farm animals.

This makes me SO excited (I adore animals, especially cows and such), but I'm also extremely scared and somewhat depressed. 1) because I've never been to New York, and have heard it's EXTREMELY lyme endemic. And 2) because we'll be spending the majority of the time at a farm with farm animals who have been in a field most of the day (I'm hoping I don't have to walk out in the fields... I think I'd be way too afraid to do that!). I want to enjoy this vacation, but I'm ALREADY dreading it... and that makes me angry and upset because my husband surprised me with this and thought it would make me happy!!!

So my question is, what is the liklihood of going to a farm in New York and picking up ticks just by being there? Or maybe this is a bad question.... LOL.

And what can I do to protect myself and my husband???? I am scared for myself to be rebitten, but more so for my husband to be bit at all! He's the healthiest of the two of us, and it needs to stay that way.... or we'd both be out of a job and in worse shape than we already are financially.

I realize I might be overthinking this or getting myself worked up. But that's something I cannot help. So I am here to ask your opinions and suggestions on what I can do to really protect me and my husband? To keep ticks off us? I know DEET is good, but does that keep ALL ticks off of you or no? I know to wear socks and tuck our pants into them.

I read that Permethrin is good at killing ticks on contact, but the Bed and Breakfast we will be staying at has cats and supposedly Permethrin is toxic to cats. :( So there goes that idea, which was a big hope!!! What else???? Please help!!!

Thanks!

Well I asked my whole foods about ordering this. I was pretty certain they would not be able to do this (as another poster suggested) because this is another country and crossing borders and such just special ordering into a another store is not as easy as it sounds. Anyway, they cannot do this due to packaging regulations. Nutritional/bilingual packaging regulations being different in Canada than the US make this impossible. For example, Canada used to see Boca products but don't anymore due to the bilingual packaging thing.


Booo

I tried to make it an all gray layout, I really did! But the colour creeped in, I'd like to think in a good way!

( NOTES & DIRECTIONS )

hi i'm lina
i have been having panic/aniexty attacks since i was 14 years old and in the eighth grade
i am currently 16 will be 17 in december
just thought i would introuduce myself

I had such a wonderful meal the other day at a restaurant that I decided (with some egging on by my guy) to give a shot at reproducing it. The dish was a chicken and vegetable pasta with chipotle cream sauce. We didn't have all the materials called for in the various recipes for cream sauce that I tried on line, but with a few substitutions such as a cubanelle pepper and some sangria instead of chipotle and white wine, we got a result which was more than acceptable and well worth trying again, especially if I can lay hands on the correct kind of pepper.

If big round bed made to look like a delicious cheeseburger isn't food porn, I don't know what is. If you've ever dreamed of diving into a larger-than-life sized hamburger, your dreams could come true. The world famous hamburger bed is on ebay! Imagine having this baby in your house, what a picker-upper. How could you ever have a bad day if you came home to this? Amazing.

I'm putting together a salad for a picnic outing/networking party for some friends in Brooklyn and I could use a little nudging in the right direction. I have this vague idea of what I'd like to do, and thought perhaps you guys could help me out. Pictures to come of all the food people bring, in a few days!

I have sweet potatoes, I have coconut milk and I have black beans. I'd like to make some sort of salad out of these things (plus other ingredients per your suggestions). This can be a chilled or room temperature salad, preferably. I'm finding nothing by the way of foodgawker, tastespotting or google.

Any ideas?

thanks♥
