pickles and splinters
anybody know the effect of pickles on one's digestive tract? ellen's been eating an awful lot of them lately and i wonder if i should curtail the massive pickle consumption.
she also got several splinters/thorns in her arm yesterday. well i think there are several. i got one out and think there three more. but i'm not sure. they'll work themselves out on their own won't they? (she's not really excited about the idea of me poking around in her arm i don't think) i'm just a bit worried they could get infected or something. she doesn't seem to care that they're there until someone wants to take a look.

They'll probably work themselves out. You can also smear Elmer's glue and let it dry (like we used to when we were kids) and peel it off. I haven't actually tried it, but someone told me it worked. I'm not sure how/if it affects arm hair...
Only thing I can think of about pickles is they have a lot of salt in them and could make her constipated and or raise her blood pressure. Tooooooo much salt is not so good.
But what do I know... are you talking a jar a day?
