This Week’s Candida Diet Menu – June 27, 2010

Going food shopping is the household chore that I dislike the most.  I try to get up really early on Saturday or Sunday morning every week to get this task accomplished but if I wake up after 8:00 AM I usually put off food shopping until another day.  The food store is packed on both Saturday and Sunday and I am easily frustrated when there are too many people around.  I need my space to move around freely and find what I need and this is very difficult to do at the supermarket on the weekends.  The downside is if I do not make it to the supermarket on the weekend my week often starts off on the wrong foot.  Executing my candida diet menu without all of the necessary ingredients makes living yeast free very difficult. 

So today I was faced with the dilemma of going to the supermarket with the masses, as I woke up at 9:30 AM, or risk being unprepared for the week.  I managed to get myself together and ventured out to the supermarket armed with a list for each store that I have to visit in hand.  Two hours and 4 stores later I am ready for the week and I am happy that I sucked it up and just went.  It was annoying but I got it done and that means one less thing to take care of during the week.  I am looking forward to this week’s menu because there are a few meals on it that I have not made in quite a while.  I hope that you all have a wonderful yeast free week.
