Rachel,

If you ever experiment with making different kids of ice cream, see if you can invent an ice cream called:

"Arctic Altoids" :D

Hugs.

Karen

:lol::lol::lol:

Too bad I cant have Altoids though. I cant share in the joys of Altoids and all things having to do with Altoids. :(

Its soooo sad...aint it.

Oh yeah, the Altoidmobile would drive around Rachelville every evening between 5 and 6, slowing cruizing the neighborhood, the gingle on the altoidmoble would be _________?______________, and all the hard working men, who have just come home, all run out of their homes, just like we did when the Ice Cream truck did when we were little.

Now, what is the gingle? (thought of an old Michael Jackson song, but did not want to go there, afterall this is Rachelville :) )

The Altoidmobile will have a REALLY, REALLY BIG BUN. Because we have a REALLY, REALLY BIG BAKERY in Rachelville, gluten free of course. Zoning has already passed.

Andrea, You're kids are all so adorable. Love the new pic. :)

Have fun tonight playing softball, Rachel. Just remember, keep your eye on the ball, and wait for the ball to come to you before you swing! B)

Thanks Patti. :)

I bet you said this a million times to your son when he was playing ball. :D

Luckily I got some practice in at the cages the other night. I did well until I tried fast pitch just for the heck of it....never tried fast pitch....its alot harder than it looked. <_<

After that my timing got messed up cuz the fast pitches threw me off. Hopefully I'm over that now. ;)

RACH! I forgot to mention, if you looking to cut costs on the homande icecream, uses all half-half, its pretty close to the whipping cream/milk combo, but at $1.19 per quart (can you guess what I was buying today and making tonight LOL) its alot cheaper then whipping cream. :D

I have done it. See by adding milk your basicly "watering" down the whipping cream and half/half falls between milk and whipping cream for fat content, and as we stated fat is the magic key to ice cream! :D Try it, personal tastes always vary so you may even like it better or not. I will be making strawberry tonight and only plan to use 1/2 n 1/2 cause we needed diapers and that put us over budget already LOL.

Rachel,

In our ice cream making days about 8-10 years ago, we used half and half at times. It is still just as good.

Cecile,

Yea for the kids! :P

What's a food budget....I forget. Seems we never stay on budget. Hubby got a pay raise but got his miles cut so far, still got to figure things out with getting our van. :(

I came across this when I searched for "low histamine foods"...someone has probably already posted it, but I thought I'd post again anyway, lol:

Open Original Shared Link

Glad you posted this Donna, read it all thru. Not sure if I need this info but if I do will have it!! :) Mercury has been a concern for me for a long time but in this state dentists can not remove it but I have composite put in where a filling needs replaced or a new one, have had a lot of them. Also the autistic children is quite a concern. A friend of mine has a nephew/ that problem but the mother does not think he has much of a problem??? Thank you so much for this post and etc. too, I appreciate your research!! :):)

I posted early pm that I had a bad tummy...burning. Have decided I have lost another food (turkey), always liked that but we become allergic to some of our favorite foods. :angry:

Have not read many posts, is there better news from Megan, hopefully? :rolleyes: evie

MEGAN UPDATE

FRIDAY, JULY 28, 2006 06:22 PM, CDT

Megan had a really good day. The fever is still spiking for no apparent reason, but her bloodwork still didn't show any sign of infection. She even sat up in bed and played with toys a few times today.

Dr. Drinkwater, her surgeon, came by tonight and helped to settle our fears about the fevers. He thinks it is a rejection of sorts causing the fevers, but thinks she will adjust to it in a few days. He said it's more of an allergic reaction than a true rejection. She looks so good otherwise, he is not concerned that it will be anything that would precipitate needing another surgery - Thank God!!!!

The Tcell count they did won't be back until tomorrow. That should give us a better indication of whether or not rejection is the issue. Dr. Drinkwater said that as long as infection is not present, though, she should build up antibodies to be able to tolerate it. Pray that he's right.

She looks sooo much better. We also were told that we will have to continue to keep Megan in for about 6 weeks after surgery because of risk of infection, but should be able to be out more after that. We'll still have to be very careful through cold and flu season, but not as bad as last year.

Thanks for all the prayers today. God is still hearing and responding! He has big plans for Megan, plans for a future and a hope....

Love to all - Jarod, Tanya, Cole, and Megan Hope

Good news on Megan!

Evie - you're welcome! It's a whole lot of info...I'm trying to figure out the histamine thing AND the inflammation thing...I think I've decided to get the histamine thing down first then tweak it in a few weeks to include the inflammation thing, lol.

Speaking of histamine...my legs are really itchy again today...hoping if I reduce the histamine levels a bit that might go away. <_<

I'll bet it will--I had a lot of itchiness on my upper arms. I've been eating this way for a while now, and I don't itch anymore at all.

Now, if I could do something about these hot flashes! :ph34r:

hold on for this - a shocker - I read EVERY WORD of EVERY SINGLE PERSON"S scientific posts. That's right! HOw will I keep up if I don't? not that I ever remotely retain all of it, and soemtimes I read through them ever-so-quickly, but yes, I do read them all! But will still flunk the science test when it's given - (remember, I'm part of the....what is it? garden and design team? speaking of the garden team.....guess what, fixed my own sprinklers today, filthy, covered in mud, with a dog licking salt off my face.....and me, happy as a clam! :rolleyes:WHO NEEDS A MAN? (well, one day I WILL want a husband, you know, to test out the Altoids and other fun stuff..... ;) )

And, if I didn't read all the posts and know what you all are going through, what kind of citizen of our cult town would I be? :o

Yes, Patti, feeling better.....sometimes the devil likes to give me a really bad day, I think, so God can remind me of the really good ones.....after all, without the major storms, there would be no fields of green...... :) Dang I'm starting to get philosophical, must go eat....

Bad tummy-ache and gas-bomb bloat :ph34r: from those wicked Baked Lays though....ugh.... :blink: will take them over to a friend's now....must remove them....

Holy cravings Batman, I am going to have to get my own ice-cream maker now....any recommendations?

edit - hey you guys - did you see that thread entitled "I found spinach" or something like that? thought we might have gotten busted or something :ph34r: about too much spinaching of our pants, but it was a serious question about....spinach! :lol::lol:

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it. Gluten is the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part. Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein. Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat...

Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine. Weight...

To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night.

Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress.

Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By Florence Lillian · Posted

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.
