Cabbage can make you feel........gas - ee

So, I had brought my kiddo's to the sitter, aka, OMA, aka grandmom, aka my mom.... She was going to watch them because dh and I had a double date planned on friday night.  I brought them early, because I had a doctor appointment, and  I thought I could go to the store and shop.... YOU know, the kind of shop that DOES NOT include groceries, but involves ME, clothes and a mirror... So I went armed with a bit of cash I have been hording for some time.... Saving my nickles and all that jazz. 

Before I leave my mom's she offers me some soup.  YES, I love my mom's soup.  I think this is great, I 'll visit with my mom, just have a bit of soup, so as to not be hungry, nor tempted to spend my hard saved $$ on a bagel at panera.   So I have the soup, It was delicious.  I even asked for the recipe...no she did not give it.

But as I am driving to the store something AWFUL happened.  Gas....LOTS OF GAS!  I was wearing a skirt that is so big on me, and all of a sudden it is SO SNUG, my abdomen is HUGE, I am so uncomfortable, and all I can think is CABBAGE IS GAS-EE oi vey

you know NOTHING fit right....I couldn't zip up, button up or pull up anything....

at least I passed enough gas to light up town square....by the time dh came home, I was down to my size,, quite humbled, and my wardrobe hadn't grown either.

Perhaps the outfit I REALLY want will be on sale next time i am actually with out the troops.... cuz you know that happenes all the time>>> NOT

Feb. 5, 2007 at 5:37 PM I am now officially one of your groupies...I am on a diet.  Guess what happens when you add a ridiculous amount of veggies and whole grains to your diet all at once?  GIRL, I spent a WEEK in agony, cuz I couldn't pass it!  The only thing that helped was the freaking heating pad...sometimes for 3 hours at a time, I was in such pain!  Beano, baby...it SAVED MY LIFE!!  LOL  Have a nice, gas free day!!

Feb. 5, 2007 at 6:13 PM I feel the same way about dairy products now a days.  I am one of those people who are even embarrassed to pass gas in the bath room.  But, give me a mocha and I am without control.  I caulked it up to getting older but my 19 year old sister is doing the same thing.  What is in the milk these days? cabbage? lol

Feb. 6, 2007 at 3:30 AM I love cabbage but I so get what you mean. We had traditional corn beef and cabbage on St. Pattys and I spent the night with the heating pad on my tummy.
