No Walnuts Please

She's allergic to walnuts. The bakery section of Whole Foods was sampling Baklava. Ingredients for this yummy pastry are walnuts, filo dough, honey, olive oil, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Penelope seemed to like it and ate the whole sample. Couple seconds later, she spit it up, cried, and tried to wipe her tongue with the back of her hand. Redness and bumps started to appear around her mouth. The area looked like it is swelling. Even the back of her hand she used to wipe her tongue turned red and bumpy. Poor baby. With a little time, it all went away.

  1. I volunteer to be her walnut allergy support group! Poor thing! Hopefully she'll also take after her aunt and uncle in some good ways...
