Wrangles code and dodges protein for a living (PKU).
It's been a while, but I've finished my Magnus Opus

Just tried using the Mevalia rice and it's the one for me (an old photo of the rice with veggies).

For one I have freedom in cooking the rice (I cook it in water with vegetable stock cube mixed for added flavour). Another reason is I can taste each rice grain.

So I gave the rice a shot (with spicy kimchi)

Pros: it's rice, alright. Tastes just like the real thing (kinda missing something, but better than PKU imitation rice)

Cons: look at the rice. It's pretty painful to take out of the packet, and is so tightly packed it comes out in lumps.

Finally - an actual PKU post!

I got an email from Promin saying they've got this new low protein rice - rice which is pretty much "normal rice" but has gone through some process to make it only half an exchange.

As someone who loves rice, I'm going to give this a try later on!

Just bought the vinyl two days ago, it arrived brand new.

I was still trying to get the plastic wrapping off when I walked into the door.

Creased the edge of the vinyl... 😡🤬

I recently got a bad result and I shared it with the PKU community. Good thing I did as I was feeling pretty rubbish about it until I read this post.

The PKU community is awesome 😎 - you can find these lot on Mastodon.

Did my blood test but completely forgot to take pictures of the sheet.

Just imagine a complete disarray of blood spots. Meanwhile, you'll have to settle on my finger instead.

Mogo chips with normal chips and vegan mayonnaise.

2 PKU exchanges and utterly delicious 😋

Did my blood test this morning! Nearly forgot as well 🤦‍♂️

It was absolutely freezing this morning so I had to use two fingers to do the blood test (oops) - I hope it still counts!

Stir fry rice with mushrooms and onions... 🤤

Used Mevalia rice as it's the closest I can get to tasting normal rice, and frozen garlic and ginger, mushrooms and onions for quicker prep.

Saw the review and it was super interesting! Definitely giving the audiobook a listen!

Got my #nspku news and views magazine!

I haven't managed to have a full read of it yet, but I briefly read about sepiapterin and JNT-517, and both seem to be extremely exciting developments in the world of #pku #phenylketonuria

Playing Silent Hill 2 on PS5, and good lord it makes Resident Evil 7 seem childish by comparison.

I think I'm going to need a shower after completing this game, I swear...

Blood spot for this month for #PKU #phenylketonuria

I think the strong winds and rain enforced some discipline, because I can't for the life of me explain how these circles are so neat.

Ordered some Tescos shopping the other day, had it booked between 7-8pm.

Sitting at home wondering why nobody has come and delivered it yet.

Getting fed up, I check the order and find out its a Click and Collect.

I drive to Tescos, panicking. Turns out I just missed it and C&C is closed.
