Message: <blockquote data-quote="Marie 2" data-source="post: 2638126" data-attributes="member: 475037">Well my pod decided to not work right, sometime before I left for our monthly vegan potluck. I noticed I was higher than I thought I should be but nothing horrible and gave myself a correction. When we got there and I looked I was at 10 and no way should I have been. That means not only did the correction not work but I was climbing. Luckily I had loaded up on Afrezza because of it being a potluck and never knowing what I was going to be eating until it is on my plate. I had 7 cartridges with me so I took all of them which is about 18 to 21 units because I knew I alone had brought a pasta dish and potato salad, plus I needed a correction. Actually a really nice selection this time, marinated tofu, jack fruit dessert, quinoa salad, coconut pudding, a green bean dish, kale, beet and eggplant brownies, to name a few. Now I could have passed on the brownies, but a beet brownie, a kale brownie and an eggplant brownie? I really wanted to try them so I tried the kale and the eggplant one. Both were delicious! It worked out because on the way home I ended up at 6 with an arrow slanted down so I had a piece of ginger candy. Of course since I hadn't switched my pod out yet and Afrezza is gone in 2 hours I started climbing by the time I got home. But I switched it, gave myself some insulin and got on my bike and it worked out pretty good.The eggplant brownie tasted like a lucious brownie. She said a neighbor grew eggplants and kept bringing her some and she isn't used to cooking with eggplant. She loves to bake so she looked up desserts online using eggplant and found the recipe. The marinated tofu dish won the best dish. It was really good and simple. Toughened tofu slices with soy sauce, slivered jalapenos and black pepper and I think 1or 2 other things were with it too. I should have taken a picture of the ingredients because it turned out to be a nice combo.</blockquote>
