Of garlic and headaches

[celticdragonfly]

Okay, that's the second time this year that I've managed to knock a glass jar of minced garlic out of the fridge and onto the floor and have it shatter. I'm thinking maybe I should just go back to the dried powdered stuff - it comes in a plastic bottle.

The hideous pounding nauseating headache I am having today *was* starting to give in to the ibuprofen, but that much garlic scent is bringing it back.

Gah.

I am a big fan of garlic, but the stuff in the jar does not appeal to me either. Stick with garlic powder, it doesn't go rancid that way.

Very good garlic this past weekend; the cooks at the Fiber Retreat wrapped whole heads in foil and stuck them on the BBQ alongside similarly wrapped sweet onions and baking potatoes. The garlic was cooked to perfect creaminess, and we squished it out onto the potatoes. Who needs butter? Risky proposition for an event where people were likely to have their heads close together in teaching situations but I guess everyone must have eaten the garlic because nobody complained.
