I was raised to believe that if you don't have green vegetables every day you'll die. Until recently, I lived by that rule. Ate a lot of broccoli and -- my favorite -- green salad with fresh peas and green beans and, yes, uncooked broccoli. YUM. Well, needless to say, I can't do that anymore. It's been a gradual "weaning" but lately I haven't had ANY insolubles, and something very strange happened. While I'm doing just fine, in fact I haven't had a cramp in a week, my hubbie is having problems! He's cramped up and can't poop. VERY unusual for him. He insists on eating everything I eat -- no matter what I have on my plate, he wants it. He couldn't even stand my having this new fennel tea; he had to have it too. So, okay, I gave him some of my tea -- he LOVES it!
But I digress. I just announced, enroute to the bathroom, "here comes poop number THREE of the morning!" while he looked at me with jealousy and said, "OHMYGOD -- wish it was me!" Obviously, I gotta get those insolubles back into our diet. Think I'm gonna give some of Mags' soup recipes a try, especially that cream of broccoli soup (with the leeks). That'll fix up my hubby!

P.S.: So don't ferget those insolubles, guys! It's only fair.
