One of the things I loved about Bones in the first season was Dr. Brennan constantly saying, "I don't know what that means," because I've spent much of my life feeling that way. I say versions of "I don't know what that means" on quite a frequent basis. My parents love to make e...

Yeah, I've found that cutting out most grains helps a lot. I eat fruits/veggies, quinoa, tofu, yogurt, nuts, cheese, and sometimes corn & rice. I think I am finally "recovered" from my every-major-meal-involves-processed-rice problem of the spring, which was bad.
