Strategy:
Hypersensitivity: Accept that you actually need more private, quiet time for recovery than the rest of the world.
Something I Really Like: Chestnuts! Roast them (find instructions in The Joy of Cooking.) And use them in your baked, stuffed pumpkin.
The High Road to Health--Lindsey Wagner's bionic, vegan cookbook.
Put A Lid On It:
Get your jars back! Inspect them carefully before reuse.
It's time to make citrus pickles and start planning the marmalades. Use organic fruits for these to avoid eating pesticide.
Dried lemons! Easy and soooo useful!
The Joy of Pickling. You want this for a present under the tree!

Blather:
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!

Dr. Gemma - very interesting discussion of hypersensitivity! I had always attributed the need for "quiet time" to introversion/shyness. Could you possibly discuss the relationship between hypersensitivity and introversion? Thank you for your podcast - I'm always so excited to see another episode up!
