I started a reply and as I was typing it went poof. So here I go again.

Yesterday started as nothing unusual. I had a hair appointment and did notice the heat and humidity. I carried both regular bottled water and the Smart one as well. From this appointment I went directly to the Farmer’s Market. Both veggies and fruit were way down in price and so I decided to stock up and give hubs a treat during the rest of this week. I also found an area where they had marinated salmon with mango and sweet chili. I purchased one package to try. I had my freezer bag with me while I shopped. Yes, there were 4 freezer paks in the bag. Following the purchase I made my way to an area that had a table with chairs and there I unloaded the plastic bags into the cooler. Reaching the car was awful even though I had found a parking spot near the front entrance. The sun was deadly hot and the humidity worse than when I left the hairdressers. I stopped at the house first to unload and repack some things to take with me to the rehab. I only had to make two trips from the car to the front door. I rested for a half hour and then left for the rehab. One of the things I also purchased were the homemade chocolate cream cheese from the market. It was like a small cookie. I did try it and it was really good. However, within an hour things took a turn. The A/C seemed to be off. It became very warm in hubs room. I had both waters with me and started to drink a bit at a time. Next thing I noticed it was after 9pm. I was extremely sweaty and I knew I had passed out. Hubs was asleep. I took a Dramamine and within seconds I started to feel sane enough to drive home. I stopped at the nurse’s station and let them know I was leaving so that someone could open the door to the parking lot. Not sure if this was again a sulfite thing or something from the heat and humidity. I stayed home all day and now will take a look at the ingredients from the one small piece of the chocolate cream cheese cookie. Oh, one more thing. I tried the salmon tonight and it was delicious. I think it is something I can easily copy. This is mango season. Who would have thought to combine salmon with the fruit and add sweet chili. Real good combo.
