One Year Later + A Chocolate Smoothie

Heeeey, I'm baaaaaack!  Wow, have I missed this.....writing and creating.  Last year - literally 2 days after posting about nightshade-free enchiladas and frustrations of a small flare-up  I was recovering from  (that I thought had been pretty intense. How wrong I was.), my body was rocket-launched into one flare-up after another. In September, I contracted Shingles after several months of long hours at the office and a 5-day trial, and by November, I would wake up in the morning already writhing in pain. I could barely walk, I felt that my brain had shrunk to the size of an ant, and I couldn't keep weight on.  This ultimately resulted in me crying with my doctor, telling her that I was at my wits end and, even though it was not what I wanted, I stated that I would get back on my RA medication if I needed to in order to get relief because nothing was working. None of my essential oils would touch the pain. All of the tinctures that I ingested whenever a flare-up came
