Why Do I Insist on Doing This to Myself?

I ♥ baklava (which if you don't know what that is...well, shame on you ) but it is chock full of walnuts...which I'm mildly allergic to. Basically it makes the inside of my mouth raw, which as you can imagine, hurts! Like hell!

Yet, here I find myself with my mouth aching, as I recently ingested a decadent, flaky, honey drenched parallelogram of yumminess.

Bah.
