For those of you who are wondering what a nut-free asylum is, here's a breakdown. There are many different terms for the word "crazy" that have to do with nuts...nuttier than a squirrel, headed to the nut house, gone completely nuts, etc. Well, my son is deathly allergic to peanuts, meaning we have had to make the switch to a nut-free household. Pair that with the fact that being a stay-at-home-mom with two kids, a husband, and a dog leaves me feeling like I belong in an asylum, it's not too far of a stretch to get to nut-free asylum. There's your lesson for the day.
I chose to start this blog for several reasons. One, to maybe help parents who are going through the same things I am. Two, to educate people who think that a peanut allergy is "not that big of deal". Three, to feel like I actually have something to do that does not involve boogers, diapers, dishes, homework, or bleach :-) I've always enjoyed writing, and while these tales might not be as captivating as Mark Twain or Ernest Hemingway, and surely aren't as creative as my poetic high school days, perhaps they will give someone somewhere some insight into my world.
Come along for the ride, and BYOSJ!!!! (Bring your own straight jacket!)
