Message: <blockquote data-quote="Antje77" data-source="post: 2719130" data-attributes="member: 372207">I've been MIA and just skimmed over all the posts I've missed.I spent the weekend (friday afternoon until just now, sunday evening) with my neighbours at a small festival, two nights in a tent, little sleep, lots of booze, and mystery food, and had a wonderful time!I wish I could tell you what I've eaten, but the festival was one where everyone brings foods to share so I chose my meals by appearance and taste, guessing on lower carb options and dosing insulin quite boldly, knowing there were plenty of high carb options to nudge my BG up a little if needed.So I had lots of tasty food but no clue what most of it actually was!  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite39" alt=":hilarious:" title="Hilarious    :hilarious:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":hilarious:" /> The ongoing buffet was quite dimly lit, and there were many foods I've never seen or tasted before, a true diabetic adventure!My sensor showed I chose quite well, only one unexpectedly carby thing must have snuck past without me noticing, which made me go up to 9.1 for a short while, still no idea which of the dishes was the culprit though.People behind the bar (drinks only, food was DIY and wash your own dishes) were very accomodating. Caipirinhas turn out to be very tasty with only a smidge of sugar as well, which made for a perfect balance between the alcohol lowering BG and the sugar upping it.</blockquote>
