Note to self...if you sneak that piece of red velvet cake and then go to sleep and then wake up to empty "The Alien's" outfit at 2 am, it's going to look like someone gutted a deer in there! Mind racing, half-asleep. Oh crap! What made it even worse was just being hospitalized a couple of weeks ago with a blockage....When I said sneak a piece of cake, I meant it. I can't have wheat, corn, milk, dyes, sooo many food reactions....but every now and then I fall off the wagon and eat real food! And this was real cake! And worth the price I paid! But real red dye is like a Halloween scene as it exits! Next time I fall off the wagon...and I will...I will put a sticky note on the wall in the bathroom in advance so my heart doesn't stop momentarily! Back to my gluten-free, milk-free, taste-free diet! But man, it was sooo good!
