Lovely yeast-control-approved lunch

Slices carved from roast turkey (not cold cuts)
Black beans with shredded cheeeeese on top*
Chilled asparagus and almond "salad" with some fresh-ground pepper

I managed to get this at the cafeteria in our building. Yay me! I think it involved every permissible food they had in the whole place except the mushrooms.

I am trying very hard not to think about the group that went out for dosas today. For months I'd tried to get people interested in going for dosas, and now, on day 2 of my being unable to eat pretty much anything South Indian, they all go. Grump. But I'm not thinking of that; I'm eating my yummy asparagus. Right? Right.

Asparagus is one of those vegetables I can't fathom eating cold. More power to you for liking it that way. :-) The rest of your meal sounds good.

I hate situations like that. I'd give up on repeated "Let's go for...", being tired of falling on apparently deaf ears, and then, when I couldn't, the others do just that. :-/

Oh, it's not raw, just allowed to cool down. I don't know if that'd make it any better for you.

I think you and I both have the Voice of Subliminal Suggestion. When we say "Let's go for...", no one can hear what we say, so they don't respond, yet when they're suddenly at a loss for what to do, the subliminal message comes out. :-)

That makes a lot of sense considering how often I also seem to be invisible. Although sometimes that one has been as useful as it has been frustrating. ;-)

Me too, man, me too. I grew up invisible and I think one of the reasons I deeply hated going from girl to woman was that I was suddenly visible -- as prey -- to a portion of the population. I didn't know what to do with visibility.
