ShellFished | SGRLALives

I had the opportunity to have crawfish today! Couldn't eat it though because I'm allergic to shellfish. However, It made me think about few the times in the past where I ate crab legs just to try something new and for acceptance and to fit in. Each time I had a allergic reaction. I didn't know what the reaction was till I talked to a doctor. I just knew things wasn't right.

Shellfish wasn't something that I had often growing up. I only remember one time when my uncle made a gumbo when I was 8 or so and I got sick then. That maybe why I have been very skeptical at trying something new. However, I do remember trying neck bones for my first time because someone insisted that should. And was hooked! However, that was the last time I had them. Its not something that a typical restaurant serves and I had always been a "on the go" type person. But, So.... im open to trying something new as I learn more about my self.
