Oooooh...southern stuff!

Fixin' to

I'll be waiting with cheese on my tonge (baited breath)

I have to second the "swoled up"

chicken fried steak

Green beans (as in cooked to death with bacon)

Chocolate gravy, sweet tea...

mmmmmmm

Lynne: Don't kill your daughter! At least after the wedding she'll be someone else's problem :rolleyes:

...Over yonder

take a notion

Sunday last/next (instead of last/next Sunday)

"busy as a long-tailed cat in a room full of rockin' chairs"...

I managed to retain a little "southern", even after 10 years! :D

Have the guest book & the table placement was set with the catering manager yesterday.

Chelsea -- waiting to see what Ashley's decision is going to be . . . I talked with her pastor last week, told her WHY it was important to me to be in the front to give her away. I told her that I DIDN'T want to stand at the Unity candle while everyone was coming in . . . that, quite frankly, I am not CAPABLE of doing that -- I'd need something to prop me up! She said that she understood what I was saying, she understood WHY I felt the way I did, and that she heard the hurt in my voice. She also said that, ultimately, it is Ashley's decision. So, we'll see. I'm getting to the point that I have been biting my tongue so much / so hard that it should be bleeding! I am to the point that I just smile and say, "Oh my, how nice."!!!!!!!!! :lol::lol:

Should be some decend fodder to report afterward, though!!!

"I'll be talking atcha of an evenin" . . . another Southern thing . . . you wake up "of a mornin' " , etc.

Amen! I was fixin' to add this, but it slipped my mind: Have y'all ever said "tump"? As in, "Don't stand up in that chair, child! It'll tump over!"

Love all these southern expressions.

Here is one of my grandmother's, said whenever young people had children before marriage, "first you build the nest, they you lay the eggs'. :lol: She was Ukrainian.

Christine, glad to hear from you. I've been wondering how you are doing. That is great that you are seeing a counsellor, but $100 a session, yikes! I think I would ask the counsellor what goals will be set and met within this number of sessions.

Lynne, I think it was me that you were going to get the information for but no rush at all given the wedding.

More southern sayings: They were all over (him)(her) like flies on spinach . . . Don't know if this one is southern, though . . . as nervous as a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs . . . . and don't listen to him, he doesn't (pronounced dudn't) know spinach from shin-ola. (Also, the older folks don't say "ho" --- they give it the good old long version!!!) Some of the older folks get the "swoles" -- swollen feet, etc. during the heat, and when the Good Old Southern Baptists faint during church because the spirit has taken them, "they done fell out" . . . . .

Have a good day, Rachelvillians . .. would you be mine, could you be mine, won't you be my neighbor???

Toodles,

Lynne

You're a riot, Lynne! :lol:

Yes indeedy!

Amen! I was fixin' to add this, but it slipped my mind: Have y'all ever said "tump"? As in, "Don't stand up in that chair, child! It'll tump over!"

I've said tump before.

:ph34r: I've been a military spouse too long. I'm sitting here trying to think of all the sayings I've heard and said and I can't think of 1. :ph34r:

kristi (8/1/2006 10:23:14 AM): Guess what! Tanya just called about 45 minutes ago and said that they might be discharged today, or tomorrow at the latest!!!!

And then from the site...

Megan continues to do so well. We are so blessed. On doctor said we may even get to go home today, but probably by tomorrow at least. I'll let you know as we find out more.

Cissie, that meal make me so hungry-but, WHERE'S THE GRAVY?!! Gotta have gravy to dump all over and some melon with it to salt and pepper and smear in it !! Cucumbers with onions in brine--yummy.

Some Southern sayings-Old as the hills--hard row to hoe--beat a dead horse--can't get blood from a turnip-!

Carla-I grew up in Ohio too, but family was all from the South. Been away for many years. You are near Cincinnati, right? Well, I have to say that having lived in Cincinncati for awhile, I think it is one of the most "southern" towns I have ever lived in!!! When we lived there, I swear it felt like I was in the deep south!! Great area. :)

Rachel, you and the ice cream are just the way I would be if I found out after a while I could eat it. I would go crazy. That is normal, I think and totally understood. If I found out I could eat gluten again, heck, I would eat a pizza every night for a month. I didn't even eat it that much before, but I sure want Pizza Hut now!!!

edit--Great news from the Megan front--I cannot believe she is coming home so soon!!!

:I've mellowed out on the ice cream a wee bit....still eating it...just not in mass quantities. You know...cutting back but not giving up entirely...like eating 8 nuggets rather 18! :o

news flash - still waiting for the golden poops, they never arrived - - mommy FOUND her bag of nuggets, had hidden them from myself in the cupboard (yeah, that works) and Miss FAtty Fat (Annie) had found an old empty bag under a stack of magazines near my bed, or under the bed, not sure, and tore that open...... :ph34r: does this make me a terrible mother.....

:lol: We also like to say "swolt up" - - from an old Richard Pryor album......yes, it was on vinyl.....

Lisa - - OMG, I did sort of get on you like white on rice yesterday....or it seemed that way....you must all remember that I was involved in an almost all-day long sewing project, didn't even make any jewelry as had to finish this and get it OUT OF MY LIFE.....I HATE SEWING..... :angry: makes me grumpy and crazy and note that I was walking back to the computer to decompress about every freaking hour..... :lol: I got all excited about the creamed corn and got a little crazy.... :ph34r: please excuse the agitation or any perceived attack...I am calmer today as am about to install the last of the curtains, after ironing...another heinous thing.....

Christine, glad to hear from you. I've been wondering how you are doing. That is great that you are seeing a counsellor, but $100 a session, yikes! I think I would ask the counsellor what goals will be set and met within this number of sessions.

very good point, Rinne.....there should be a determined goal....and Christine, I am not sure you should be making major life decisions/life changes until you really feel good and stabilized, just a thought.

Lynnie - - been meaning to address your gaseous dog - - - try this food called Bil Jac, it's not cheap but guess what, there is NO GLUTEN, Tika the Celiac dog :lol: has not laid a stink bomb on us for months, since she's been on this food!

Don't post here in Rachelville too often, but sure love the laughs. Wanted to add a Southern-ism. My uncle, born in Georgia, lives in N. Carolina, would always say, "Come here an' gimme sum suga' " in his really cool accent. I didn't see him much growing up, but still remember that voice. I talk to him on the phone once in a while and he still calls me "sugar".

And, by the way, is everyone remembering to "tighten, release, tighten, release..." as they sit at their computer?

I went to the health food store yesterday and was looking for my usual loaf of bread (which I did not find) when I noticed that Glutino had made a frozen pizza. They also had a pasta meal but i didn't pick that one up. The pizza was feta and spinach and I have to say that it's wonderful. Is this new or have I been going to the wrong store all this time. They're not really up on getting the newest items in. :huh:

The only pizza I've seen frozen is Amy's. I think it must be new. :unsure:

Susan, Donna...are you both registered for Stanford? Is it too late? Is there a cutoff? Are you guys going for sure? I'm assuming there will be lots of food...which sucks for me cuz I cant eat it but what else goes on there? Need more info puleeeze. I want to go. :D

It's got to be in my all time top ten of most hated jobs.

Funny that,because my Mum used to make all our clothes,darn socks ( :o WHAT!! Throw them away Mother!) and made ironing an art form.She even irons my Dad's socks and underpants! :blink:

I,apparently didn't inhereit them skills unfortunately.

I'm still loving your Southern witty little lines,but you guys don't always tell me what they mean! :huh:

I am an English gal,and I don't always get it!!(silly old me)

Okay, I've tried to reply to this twice and every time I do someone brings me work, lol. I am registered and paid for so I'm going for sure. I can't remember what the cut off is. Here is a link to the schedule:

I'm figuring I can eat a little but probably not most of what they'll have, but it should be fun anyway...I love to shop and who knows, BUMBLE BARS might be there! :lol:

She even irons my Dad's socks and underpants! :blink:

My brother-in-law is from the UK and while he and my sister were visiting his parents, my sister asked for the iron so that she could iron his pants, and they looked at her like she had 3 heads. She was like, "you know, his pants! They're wrinkled." and they said, "who on Earth irons PANTS?!" Bit of a culture gap there...pants being trousers in the US and pants being underwear in the UK

They thought she wanted to iron his boxers :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...

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.

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.
