So, I have a little peanut “_issue_”. Namely, I can’t eat them.

I dined out with my brother and his wife, my niece and my visiting grandpa last night at a nifty Mongolian restaurant where you grab your food, slap on the sauce and they cook it right up in front of you. Well, apparently, the person who’s meal was cooked right before mine must have used a _Tonne_ of peanut sauce which was mixed with my selections.

I’ve spent the last 24 hours in the bathroom, and I feel like a big fat bloated puddin’. ☹

Pea, pea, pea, peanuts!  
I like peanuts,  
'Cause peanuts taste so good!

Make my tummy,  
Yum, yum, yum, yum, yummy!

Sorry, **alice** … I couldn’t resist! Especially after **Rue** already did that to you!😉

FTR: Burger King onion rings do something similar to me… DO NOT stand down-wind of me after eating those suckers!!:eek:

Ugh, pounding headache to go with bad tummy…

**PEANUTS ARE BAD!!!**

On a brighter note, the owner of the restaurant has offered to buy me a lovely \*peanut free \* dinner next time I go in…
