jazzyjjHey everybody. That's right, I can now say with a good deal of certainty what kombucha is. Just yesterday in the late afternoon, a neighbor/friend and I walked to a local brewery and purchased a small bottle of the stuff. Our order taker was friendly and courteous, and we thanked her. We then walked back here and we each had one drink of the stuff. I have to admit it's not bad, but prior to our adventure I did an Ixquick search for "kombucha" and the first result that popped up was an article which you can read by clicking the below link if interested. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kombucha
This article honestly made me question my sanity a bit, since I have to be at least somewhat cautious of these things due to immunosuppression. He is indeed aware of this, and has been very considerate. Ditto for others around here. But I thought why not just plow ahead and see what's my verdict? So that is what I did and while it wasn't bad like I mentioned above, I did experience a tingling sensation in my mouth the rest of the night. I took a bit of water, but the tingling persisted. I knew it couldn't be the turkey dinner I ate last evening, because that was kept in the freezer and I have had them before with no food poisoning. But now the tingling is completely gone. For those of you among the curious, yes I have been brushing my teeth regularly with an electric toothbrush. I'm not going to fret about the sensation unless it comes back. At that point I think I shall notify my healthcare team and my parents.
In other news of the week, I got a new desk chair and like it. It is a swivel chair like my other one was, but this one is different. I am working on getting more furniture in my apartment, but one step at a time right?
The garden out back is looking better and bigger. Hopefully soon I'll have bragging rights, lol.
I think that's it for today. Take care as always and be good. Talk to y'all soon!
