Tonight my pork roast is actually thawed enough to cook. I'll also throw a rub together for mine then throw it in the rotisserie and get some veggies for with it.

 

Sick or not, life is in hyperdrive this week. First market is this Saturday and I'm nearly ready! Plus my BFF just went part time teaching and they haven't found a replacement for the afternoon class yet so I subbed that half the days this week. (No class Fridays in the summer so I'm not awful at math, it was actually HALF the week. :P) Plus she finally put me to work while I'm at work, correcting papers and fixing the answer keys because they made me crazy. I used to sit and troll the internet or read the whole time other than when students needed me. Working for my money sucks. <_< lol!

This weekend I made Gumbo for the first time, from Emeril's cook book. I used Bisquick gluten-free Mix and it made a roux just fine, although I got a bit impatient stirring and stirring....but well w

I'm making stir fry, too!  Going to try out two of the SanJ sauces instead of the usual making my own from scratch.

I really wish my husband would eat a stir fry. <_< Our pork roast was itty bitty, and with only a tiny bit left over to make my lunch tonight I'm making a beef roast. Rotisserie again, because why not! My husband says I'm obsessed, pretty much with his mouth full and while talking about how awesome his dinner is. :lol: Second best kitchen purchase we ever made.

 

Well... I've been goofing off online for like an hour or so. I should probably get back to work. :ph34r:

Also, we harvested our first mint last night. I huge bowl full of chocolate mint. It's in the dehydrator now. It may seem like a crime, but my first batch is going into a heating pad for myself and I'm insanely excited. Also thinking of making some brownies or fudge. And we want to make a boatload of chocolate and Moroccan mint extract as Christmas gifts this year.

They make these "dump" cakes at Boy Scouts/  They call them cobbler.  They are also good with a can of pie fillings - apple (with spice cake) , peach, blueberry, cherry - with chocolate cake mix.  They cook them in a dutch oven in the fire (coals on top of lid).

 

and, nowwww...........BACK TO CAKE!!!  hey, ms. k, i has cherry pie filling and a bc chocolate cake - are you saying all i need to do is dump the pie filling in and sprinkle cake mix and then melted butter, bake, viola!  ??

It's a casserole or crockpot thing.

Tonight we are having oven chicken spinach risotto! Yummy! Love a one dish dinner!

Not in the KFG but in my favorite red enamel coverded iron pan. My hub calls it a fancy Dutch oven. The unfancy one is cast iron and it's what we make the " cobbler" in the fire. Or Gumbo.... Or green chile casserole... Or green chile, egg, casserole.... Hmmmm! Maybe gumbo tomorrow. All official Boy Scout Recipes

Tonight is leftovers. I'll eat early and do my nails. Hubs can come home and get his own leftovers. Just got in from PT and picking up some things to finish the last pads. Back to work!

Sick people need to stay at home and not infect me!  This is why I am a germaphobe, lol!

 

Has anyone tried the ancient harvest mac n cheese?  They have all three kinds at my grocery store, but after trying the horrible deboles one long ago, I am hesitant to eat anything but the good 'ol annies classic one.

 

Tonight for dinner will be grilled chicken, carrots, and lundberg risotto.  Tomorrow we are going out to eat so no cooking, just stuffing my face!

I made my very first batch of peanut butter fudge today.  Used Alton Brown's recipe.  Total Yummers.  It's hard to just eat one piece.  Can you freeze fudge?

 

Dinner tonight was ribeyes, sweet pots and sweet peas.

I don't know about freezing fudge... I know it lasts a long time at room temp, and can't think of anything that would make it a no.  Maybe try freezing a small piece to see.

 

Today we grilled burgers for lunch, and for dinner I am going to wrangle my husband for manual labor to help make home made gnocchi.  Buying it gluten-free is like $6 for 2 servings (or 1 large serving, hehe) and I have always been a gnocchi lover so I want to take a stab at making it myself.

probably, but if this were in my house, there would be nothing left to freeze. The recipe says it lasts for a week.

 

 J would inhale that within a few days. ^_^

I don't know if its a cream cheese fudge, cooked fudge or what but we keep fudge for a month in a tight sealed container in the fridge. Take a piece out for 10 minutes before eating if you can wait.

Wait ten minutes... :lol:  Can't do that.  And I think Irish's "inhalation theory" will be correct  :o it's going fast, and so is my figure  ^_^

it's easy, peasy :)  the hardest part was faking a ricer  ^_^  because i don't own one.  i think last time i made it, we had it with sausage, brown butter and sage.  yummmmzzz (now i want gnocchi..... <_< )

 

last night we had greek baked chicken (stuffed with spinach & feta, topped with herbed bread crumbs) with cucumber tzsasizikei <ok, you know, that cucumber/yogurt garlic yummy sauce)

 

we are coming off a rough week here in my town - last week 4 young people crossed a railroad track crossing and were hit by the train.  it was probably driver error but there were no crossing gates and no drugs or alcohol involved.  just tragic.  two of them died at the scene and we have been praying for the other two.  the driver and front passenger lived.  one of the ones who died was the driver's sister :(  all college kids.  we live in a very tight community, so all of our kids grew up together.  one of the boys in the hospital saved 3 kids last winter from drowning when they fell through the ice.........  and he has been released to go home today.  so, there is the first bright spot.  the other boy is speaking now, and recognized his mother.  

 

hug your babies   -_-

yes, that tzatziki is going on my lamb kefta later. (although technically, I should call it madzoon because I am part Armenian and that's what my Gramma called yogurt, but you're probably thinking "it's all Greek to me".. ^_^ )

 

Now, I want gnocchi with brown butter and sage but I do not have the energy to make both. (that bug is still bugging me...). 

 

My profound sympathies on the losses in your community.  :( just tragic. Sending big hugs, hon.xx

      Waiting for urgent referral.

      By Fluka66 · Posted

      Thank you again for your reply and comments which I have read carefully as I appreciate any input at this stage. I'm tending to listen to what my body wants me to do, having been in agony for many years any respite has been welcome and avoiding all wheat and lactose has thankfully brought this.  When in pain before I was seen by a number of gynacologists as I had 22 fibroids and had an operation 13 years ago to shrink them . However the pain remained and intensified to the point over the years where I began passing out. I was in and out of a&e during covid when waiting rooms where empty. My present diet is the only thing that's given me any hope for the future. As I say I had never heard of celiac disease before starting so I guess had this not come up in a conversation I would just have carried on. It was the swollen lymph node that sent me to a boots pharmacist who immediately sent me to a&e where a Dr asked questions prescribed antibiotics and then back to my GP. I'm now waiting for my hospital appointment . Hope this answers your question. I found out more about the disease because I googled something I wouldn't normally do, it did shed light on the disease but I also read some things that this disease can do. On good days I actually hope I haven't got this but on further investigation my mother's side of the family all Celtic have had various problems 're stomach pain my poor grandmother cried in pain as did her sister whilst two of her brother's survived WW2 but died from ulcers put down to stress of fighting.  Wishing you well with your recovery.  Many thanks

      Welcome to the forum, @Nacina, What supplements is your son taking?

      @BluegrassCeliac, I'm agreeing.  It's a good thing taking magnesium. And B vitamins. Magnesium and Thiamine work together.  If you supplement the B vitamins which include Thiamine, but don't have sufficient magnesium, Thiamine won't work well.  If you take Magnesium, but not Thiamine, magnesium won't work as well by itself. Hydrochlorothiazide HCTZ is a sulfonamide drug, a sulfa drug.  So are proton pump inhibitors PPIs, and SSRIs. High dose Thiamine is used to resolve cytokine storms.  High dose Thiamine was used in patients having cytokine storms in Covid infections.  Magnesium supplementation also improves cytokine storms, and was also used during Covid. How's your Vitamin D?

      Hi,   Not saying Thiamine (B1) couldn't be an issue as well, but Mg was definitely the cause of my problems. It's the only thing that worked. I supplemented with B vitamins, but that didn't change anything, in fact they made me sick. Mg stopped all my muscle pain (HCTZ) within a few months and fixed all the intestinal problems HCTZ caused as well. Mom has an allergy to some sulfa drugs (IgG Celiac too), but I don't think I've ever taken them. Mg boosted my energy as well. It solved a lot of problems. I take 1000mg MgO a day with no problems. I boost absorption with Vitamin D. Some people can't take MgO,  like mom, she takes Mg Glycinate. It's one of those things that someone has try and find the right form for themselves. Everyone's different. Mg deficiency can cause anxiety and is a treatment for it. A pharmacist gave me a list of drugs years ago that cause Mg deficiency: PPIs, H2 bockers, HCTZ, some beta blockers (metoprolol which I've taken -- horrible side effects), some anti-anxiety meds too were on it. I posted because I saw he was an IgG celiac. He's the first one I've seen in 20 years, other than my family. We're rare. All the celiacs I've met are IgA. Finding healthcare is a nightmare. Just trying to help. B

      It sounds like you've been through a lot with your son's health journey, and it's understandable that you're seeking answers and solutions. Given the complexity of his symptoms and medical history, it might be beneficial to explore a few avenues: Encourage your son to keep a detailed journal of his symptoms, including when they occur, their severity, any triggers or patterns, and how they impact his daily life. This information can be valuable during medical consultations and may help identify correlations or trends. Consider seeking opinions from specialized medical centers or academic hospitals that have multidisciplinary teams specializing in gastrointestinal disorders, especially those related to Celiac disease and Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EOE). These centers often have experts who deal with complex cases and can offer a comprehensive evaluation. Since you've already explored alternative medicine with a nutrition response doctor and a gut detox diet, you may want to consider consulting a functional medicine practitioner. They take a holistic approach to health, looking at underlying causes and imbalances that may contribute to symptoms. Given his low vitamin D levels and other nutritional markers, a thorough nutritional assessment by a registered dietitian or nutritionist specializing in gastrointestinal health could provide insights into any deficiencies or dietary adjustments that might help alleviate symptoms. In addition to routine tests, consider asking about more specialized tests that may not be part of standard screenings. These could include comprehensive stool analyses, food intolerance testing, allergy panels, or advanced imaging studies to assess gut health.
