Rethinking Beans

We just wrapped up the fifth morning of our bean trial.  All in all, Claire is happy, no vomiting, loose stools, or visible signs of discomfort.  I'm starting to question a suspicious rash that is appearing all over her body though.  At first I thought it might be a reaction to sunblock, something we've been slathering on a lot these summer days, but now I'm not so sure.  The rash (little red dots, spaced out all over her body and found more densely on her tummy) is located in regions that sunblock is not.  Her skin is striking an unsettling resemblance to that of days gone by.  Hmmm....

  1. That stinks Kris!!! The not-so-magical fruit, huh?.

    Did you happen to add anything into your diet? Will had the same rash (at least it sounds the same-especially with more on the belly) from my consumption of organic deli meat (with the lactic acid starter culture from beets not cow). Once I dropped the lunch meat, the rash went away. Wishful thinking for you b/c something you're eating would be a whole lot easier.
