Hey daliatree! Thanks for responding!!
Yep, everything I eat is cooked. I can't do any fruit or veggies (unless they're green vegs and cooked within an inch of their life). I gag at the smell of raw meat, and fish and eggs. Always have. I can't even bake a cake unless I rinse out the egg shells and move them out of the house into the garbage outside, pronto. I also can't take out the garbage for the same reason. I always gag.
For some reason, when cooked or raw food sits out for 20-30 minutes, it smells really vile to me. I don't normally eat out, but at a thxgvg dinner I have to breathe through my mouth to avoid smelling the food in front of me. It just smells like decay to me. The smell of raw celery makes me gag. Carrots and corn too. But breathing through my mouth (and a little wine to take my mind off of it) helps.
I'm ok at organizing, tho. I do it for a living, so I'm ok there. This is not a real problem. This is a throw some money at it and it'll go away problem.
Just a liiiittle ironic that the girl who doesn't eat normal food is organizing the normal meal. I dig irony.
