One of the struggles with my lactose intolerance issue is that others around me are often forgetful. This especially happens when my husband and son eat ice-cream.  It seems like every other time my son forgets that I do not eat ice-cream anymore.  

        On the one hand, it is nice of him to offer me some or my folks to offer some to me if I am over at their house for a visit. On the other hand, my brain often wonders how can everyone be so forgetful?  It is not like I just went on this random diet for the fun of it or anything?
   
       It is only been at least a year of my eating sherbert or fruit bars instead of the other frozen treat.  On some occasions have been known to eat frozen yogurt, but that still is not the same thing.  Just goes to show there is no telling how long it will take my mom and dad, or my son to remember the fact that I do not do ice-cream.   

       Anyway, I love them rather they recall this detail about my life or not.  It only happens on rare occasions.  The rest of the time everyone seems to fine to let me enjoy the fruit-related frozen foods.  If nothing else I could always eat some regular yogurt or no dessert at all.  Either way, I am good because that is just who I am.

      What can I say?   It must be one of the perks of my food allergy.
