Good times

It has been a good few days for me and I am very thankful to people around me. Some of these people are servers that I have had before and others are people that I never met before.

Today I went to one of our usual restaurants and it was another good experience. it is so comforting to know that I can go out and not have too many problems at one restaurant. Tonight we had a different server (one who is usually a manager) but of course knowing him and his aware of my allergies makes eating there so easy.

This weekend we went out and to a restaurant that we go to maybe once or twice a year. Basically we go to the restaurant after the Air Show so it's not some place we frequent. The best part of this weekend was we had a server that totally understood how to handle my allergies. I know in some cases he may not have known my specific allergies but at least he was willing to assist me in ensuring that I had a good experience. The experience we had on Saturday meant that when we went back to the Air Show on Sunday we went back to the same restaurant and asked for the server again. Two excellent experiences this weekend meant that I smiled a lot more and was able to enjoy the entire long weekend. Thanks so much for helping me feel good and also being able to show you how to use an epi-pen.

What can I say other than every time you go out and eat you must mention all your food allergies and know that sometimes you will have excellent experiences and other times they may not be as well but always remember the good times.
