HO.LY. SHIT!!!
WOWEEE. I wouldn't even know where to start. This is awesome Dahli.

[charlielove]

Are you in heaven just thinking about the cheese you can consume? Holy selection! There is a ton of delicious sounding stuff. I would definitely try the pear and manchego cheese and the vegetarian rice paper rolls.

Are you going to be able to eat dietary restriction free while on your trip?

I am not going to eat gratuitous dairy but I can't worry about soy over there or I would starve and/or be miserable. I WILL eat a small bag of cheese doritos AND McDonald's Nuggets in the airport as my special treat before I leave. I am trying really hard not to order the cheesecakes or fruit w/ chocolate sauces. Dammit! :-)

I have not challenged soy since Feb. so I will consider what happens when I get back a mild challenge. I am going to chug water like a mutha on the 24 hour trip home. There is no guarantee she will nurse when I get back so I'd kick myself if I didn't enjoy the food and she weans...I don't think she will.

[TrudyCampbell]

Yumm!!

I don't think she will wean, don't worry.

Well no one will starve that's for sure. The Mediterranean selection sounds good!

She isn't going to wean! But I understand stressing. Post as many emo posts as you want, I will be here with equally emo hugs. I can give you Internet non-bosom hugs all I like dammit.

What I choose is the menu for all the attendees. I get to be queen of the food. I think everyone should be good for fish as a main course based on regional preferences.

Take me!
