Korma Obsession & Lactose Issues

You guys have got to check out this post today from Warren Caterson @ Table for Two Cookbooks called: Diets I Have Tried That Really Do Work. I realize that sounds serious, but trust me, this post is hilarious! Actually, you should probably just read everything he writes because the guy is just plain funny.

This blog post is not too exciting...haha. sorry. I say that because I ate the same thing for lunch and dinner again. And let's be honest...I'm probably doing this again until the korma has been licked clean from the 3 gallon pot. What can I say, It's just that darn good.

Breakfast: omelet that I totally destroyed made with 3 eggs, 2 slices bacon, and 2 whole mushrooms, cooked in 1 1/2 tbsp butter.
Now on a nutrition side note: I have noticed that since Matt made korma (both recipes) I have been feeling really bloated and kind ick. I wasn't positive what was going on at first but after making the second recipe I realized it was probably the heavy cream (even though there was only 1 cup in a 1.5 gallon thing of it). I've always been lactose intolerant but for some reason I just didn't think of it. I know, that sounds crazy. I just figured it wouldn't bother me in a smaller amount. Well...I was wrong! Last night I took 2 lactaid pills with my dinner to test it out, and of course now I feel fine! Now I don't want to keep taking them because I'd much rather just avoid the issue all together...but like I said..this korma is amazing and there is no way I'm not eating it. So, until it's alllllll gone, I'll be packing lactaid pills with my lunch (and dinner).
Lunch & Dinner: Obviously I ate more korma for lunch...and again for dinner tonight.  And it was fantastic. Most likely I'm going to eat it again tomorrow for lunch...and dinner..
If you aren't familiar with Green & Black's Chocolate...you should be. ;) I will say however, if you get any less than the 85% cocoa, there are some ingredients you probably don't want to put in your body. I always stick with this one:
Dessert: clearly my obsession, a couple squares from my Green & Black's Organic Dark Chocolate bar, yum! & 8 oz red wine.
