the mint brownies, 10.19.23

i don’t know if i’ve wrote about it here, but if i did, i apologize for the rerun. i looked back at my last week of posts and i didn’t see anything about it, but then again, i’m good at missing things. anyways, at the seminar in waltham last week, they had these incredible mint chocolate chip brownies. i got one, then got two more, then one for the road. okay, now that i’m writing, i remember writing about the brownies, but here’s the thing. i had a mean headache the day of the seminar. it happened around lunch time and i blamed it on being hungry and dehydrated. i typically don’t get headaches, let alone one as bad as i had that day. i didn’t make much of it. actually, the headache didn’t go away until i slept it off the next morning. the next day comes, i go about my day. i had a lot to do last friday, so i didn’t have time to eat. as i’m about to cut the grass, i see the brownie i took home from the seminar. i ate it and within minutes i had a booming headache that lasted for hours. that’s when i came to the conclusion that brownie had some ingredient my body wasn’t quite agreeing with. today, i run across a colleague from tech dev. i remember seeing him there so i asked if he ate the brownie. he said he didn’t but asked why. i told him about my experience and he said he didn’t eat a brownie. i have to ask a few more colleagues if they ate the brownies, but damn isn’t that wierd??

i wonder what the hell was in those brownies.
