Back-tracking

We thought we'd successfully re-introduced eggs several weeks ago. About a week ago, Lily developed a mystery rash - so mysterious that the doctor at urgent care had no idea, other than the suggestion that it "sort of looked like bug bites". After 8 days of this rash, we dropped everything suspect - including eggs, xanthan gum, her vitamin, and the hydro-cortisone cream we'd been using to help control the itching and inflammation. That was Sunday night. Monday morning she was significantly improved. This morning, she is even better. We've actually been off of eggs since Saturday morning. So, I don't know what effect anything had on anything, really. All I know is her skin is better; her behavior is better; her sleep (kinda - shhhhh) is better... And that's okay for now.

Therefore, my recipes will now again default to egg-free. (I should go back and edit the Tuna Pasta Salad entry - I just made an eggless version this morning. It was really good. Different, but good.)
