Maybe Make You Smile?

[Dasmith]

Last night my husband was drinking a pepsi....(for some reason I am unable to tolorate caramel coloring). He left the room....now mind you I LOVE pepsi, so I reached down, picked it up, and started smelling it....lol. So here I am smelling his soda when he walks in....looks at me (like I have lost my mind) and says "what are you doing?". I reply, "smelling your soda in the hopes that it will trick my mind into thinking I have had it....." LOL (so he is right in looking at me like I am crazy). He then gets this panic in his eyes and says " you didn't drink it did you!!!" Which I hadn't but he was so worried...he is so sweet!!

Anyone else there get caught doing weird things since going gluten free?? I am sure I will get caught sniffing other things.

Yeah.....I've been know to sniff on occaision! Unfortunately, a lot of the things I used to like...I can't even tolerate the smell anymore .... or maybe it's forntunate. Siiiggghhhh

It's become a ritual on the rare occasion that my husband has a beer - upon opening it (or having it delivered to our table) he automatically passes it to me, so I can get a good whiff! It definitely tricks my mind for a little while.

I admit, I've also secretly sniffed his full-of-gluten sandwich rolls and donuts without his knowledge!

Sniff away!!!!

It is good to know that I am not crazy!! LOL I was really enjoying the smelling of his pepsi and will continue to do so whenever he has it.....

Wishing everyone a great weekend!

Kiddo came into the kitchen the other day after eating a container of key-lime pie yogurt and unintentionally breathed right in my face. It smelled so good. I told him he could breathe on me anytime after eating it! And we had a good laugh. Gluteny pizza is a different matter. Somehow the smell is more addictive and I will resist because it makes me so sick but just smelling it is not satisfying. I'm glad that I don't encounter it often.

I caught myself doing it yesterday when my husband and I walked into Walmart. The smell of the pizza and chicken.mmmm. I bought some gluten free pizza crust mix and mak my own pizza.

Hey I am doing more crazy stuff...The other day I put chocolate cake (can't have sugar cause of candida) and pizza in my plate, took a fork and pretended I was actually eating it. ......wow...that was pathetic!!!

And of course I do put my nose in everyones food. just to catch that smell....

lol So I'm not nuts! My dad and I went out for lunch at a pub yesterday. He ordered a Guinness, and I asked if I could sniff it. After a long inhale of that rich heavenly scent--nearly fell into the glass--I handed it back to him. He drank it and told me I enjoyed it very much. Aw, sweet dad.

This makes me laugh! I always "Secretly" sniff foods when people aren't looking. I was just sniffing my daughters Valentine Chocolates today, and I always sniff Chick-fil-a because I MISS IT SO MUCH!!!

Sometimes I catch myself watching people stuff that I can not eat. It is almost like food porn. lol

[hannahp57]

Food porn! now thats funny

i used to go through the line in a deli or at a buffet and grab a dessert just so could visualize eating it. and i totally smelled it too! i do that all the time. i would bake a loaf of homemade gluten bread just for that scent of a yeast bread baking. mm...

and of course those delis with the chicken strips... you know where you can taste it because the scent of fried food is SO strong. i used to ask my hubby to breath in my face after brownie fudge sundaes and the like. no embarassment there. he's seen me at my weirdest.
