I woke up this AM with a swollen armpit. I know, pretty gross. I was going to rest and see if it went down but my hubby insisted that I go to urgent care (love having this service, it beats waiting for the Dr. on Monday or going to the emergency room). So I listened to the man and went to Liberty Urgent Care. I am glad I did b/c it hurt to even drive to the Dr.
It turns out that my glands were just swollen from using cream deodorant. Since we moved to Cincy 3 years ago, my skin goes through a horrid change every fall. My acne becomes flared up, my armpits get irritated and my allergies go haywire. I keep saying that I am going to get acupuncture but always just suffer through it. All is all I am fine. A little rest, antibiotics and not using deodorant for a little while will get me raising my arm again.
This week will be busy. I plan on baking beginning tomorrow. I have 2 sweet potato cheesecakes to make for Turkey day. The flavors mellow as the cake ages so I will make these on Tuesday. I also have to make Apple Cobbler cupcakes. If I have time I will play around with a few of my winter recipes. I am really excited about the apricot brandy cupcake. It is really a wonderful cake and the topping is really stunning (no butter cream, just apricot preserves and an apricot half). I will be sure to post pictures.
Well, I am off to rest. My arm is still not fully functional.
Happy Turkey Week.
