This week I had my monthly type 1 support group meeting with JDRF. It was SO much fun! It was just beautiful! So classy and fancy, and I got to meet some amazing people.

They had such things as a liquid olive!!
This exploded in your mouth to create the sensation of eating all those flavors!

Very fancy!
