Here is the application for PE teacher in R-ville.

Are you gluten free?

Do you promise to never infiltrate Rachelville with gluteney foods?

Do you promise to never bring gigantic Auxigro ridden produce into R-Ville?

OK...Thats about it.

If you answered yes to all of the above....the job is yours. :D

Oh...the purple glittery bats are our friends...so please do not hurt them. :)

OMG OMG OMG

THIS gave me the spinaching, gut-busting laugh of the day....just read these last few sentences to yourself, ESPECIALLY the choice one at the end about the glittery bats....and try to imagine a newcomer, stumbling into our fair cult, reading THIS...

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

BTW that is the job application for ANY prospective employee of R-ville, excellent Rachel...

and RACHEL....get a hold of yourself......you know they have meetings for people like you, who are lost in their addictions to a substance....oh......wait......I don't think they address the ice cream addiction specifically.... B);):lol::P

:lol::lol::lol::lol:

premature posting, will carry on reading now......

Lisa Mentor

Madame President: I feel the need to clarify a few items.

1) I make ONE MISTAKE, and all He** breaks out . . . granted it was a HUGE mistake -- that will teach me not to stroll through Rachelville BEFORE I've taken my concerta. Obviously, I need to concentrate and read, not SCAN . . . . and will NOT make that mistake again. My poor, dear, wrongly accused of being gay husband. . . . :rolleyes: Do you know how many Altoids nights I'm gonna have to go through to repay him for that????? May as well nickname me "hummingbird" :o;)

2) I was not the first one to introduce the T-shirt idea . . . . if you scroll back, oh, say, 50 posts(maybe more), you will find that SOMEONE said that we could have T-shirts that said something to the effect of Someone . . . . . and all I got was this t-shirt. THAT ALONE would constitute ADVERTISING for Rachelville . . . and would get CNN interested. MY shirt simply stated that I did not want anyone who wasn't a resident to bother me. I'm saving my altoids for the Rachelville MEN. Did we all hear that . . . Hunky, Burly MEN -- Not women -- although my husband may have a little difficulty with me "spreading the love", so to speak.

3) Tic-Tacs will NEVER do . . . although their previous jingle was "Put a Tic-Tac in your mouth and get a BANG out of life" . . . . enough said B)

I think I am finished; however, should I find any additional discrepancies, I will contact you immediately. Thank you for your time and consideration . . . . I remain, Sincerely, Town Physical Therapist and resident expert in Foot in Mouth disease :lol::lol::lol:

Do not fear, gentle citizens of R-ville! We shall simply never, EVER run short of Altoids, ice cream, inordinately large and impossibly sweet mangos grown without Auxigro, Hershey's Nuggets with Almonds (in fact I am goign to the store just now in my pajamas to get some)....what else? all the histamine-free produce and spinach ;) you can eat, you name it!! None of it will ever, ever run out. :)

Guest Robbin

:) Wow, Andrea, you are a great record-keeper!

Miamia, I use Ener-G sweet rice flour or tapioca flour and mix it with potato starch for most of the recipes I make. Seems to work really well for breading fried food, baking, etc.

Have a wonderful Sunday everyone!!

EDITED FOR TOPIC :)

I was picturing more along the lines of a piston on wheels......

:rolleyes:

DingoGirl Enthusiast

ROBBIN! Yay, sounds like you had a good day! :rolleyes: so glad you got to get out in the dirt AND take your wonderful dog to the park....all the dogs/dingos/geese are going to do just fine! Yes, we were together in spirit today, as I was at the park too, and just smiled to myself as I saw huge gaggles of geese.....would love to take a photo of my girls with the geese but, don't think that would work and oh, it is against the law.....

Glad you're feeling better and good to hear from you! :)

Karen, I love your Monkee cards as they are the absolute best and the funniest. The one you sent me when I was sick, I think I read daily every day for weeks. Laughter is so good for the soul. Thanks for being you.

Lisa Mentor

Too tired to go back to the geese thread, and don't know.......

We used to live on a lake and every day about 500 geese would come to rest. EVERYWHERE. When the girls were small the would ride their bikes and someone would be behind in the wagon that the bike would pull.

There was so much goose crap all over the road, that as the bike traveled down the road, it would kick up all the goose crap into the wagon and the girls would come in splattered with goose crap all over their faces and clothes. The bike wheels would kick it up into their faces.

You can really slip on goose crap too and really hurt your self. They CRA- everywhere.

They ARE CANADIAN, CAN WE SEND THEM BACK.

All they do here is eat and do-do.

Karen -- I am laughing so hard I can't BREATHE!!! Dave is simply shaking his head . . . . :P

In case y'all don't know . . . I'm in a wheelchair . . . hence, "piston on wheels". Good thing I ordered new batteries for the wheels two weeks ago!!!!!!! :lol::lol: May have to order new brakes, too!!!!!

Karen, you are the BEST :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

That's right, Lisa, I echo what Cecile said....our geese in r-ville DO NOT poop, they are magical, so do not worry...

am...trying....to.....resist.....going .......to store.... to get .....the NUGGETS.......help me........

Rachel--24 Collaborator
Yay, a PE teacher!!

Rachel - correction - it's Lynne who has the T-shirts and the gay husband..... ;):lol::P

ROFLMAO!!!

ahhhhh....Sorry to Lisa (and her straight hubby). :o

<smacking myself on the forehead> ....seeeeee this is why I *need* my ice cream!!! :blink:

I'm halucinating and delirious with laughter. Mixing up everything here in R-Ville....getting the T-shirts and gay husbands all confused. :ph34r:

I have a solution. Frozen apple juice and pear juice pops....this might do the trick. No added sugar, No added Auxigro....goooood stuff. :D

tiredofdoctors Enthusiast
Yeah, but once the word gets out how talented us Rachelvillettes are with our Altoids, pretty soon there will be population explosion and for every one woman, there will be 20 men......

Does that mean I will have to give a step by step demonstration on the proper technique?

Granted, we Rachelvillettes are TALENTED . . . but step-by-step demonstration on the proper technique got us in to WAY too much trouble a few months ago . . . . . :lol::lol::lol::lol:

And I have the STRAIGHT husband . . . . it's LISA'S husband who isn't as straight as he used to be . . . . :lol::lol::lol:

AndreaB Contributor

:blink: what? confused....clue us in LIsa or did I miss

Yeah...I dont get it either??

I wasnt going to ask since I seem to be just generally confused today anyways...thought maybe it was just me. :unsure:

EDIT: I'm prematurely posting so maybe this has been answered already. I'm learning bad habits from Susan...so I apologize in advance.

BTW is yours the husbnad who's "not as straight as he used to be" ??? I dunno what to say either..... :lol: But we'll get him STRAIGHTENED OUT in R-ville - - -

:lol::lol::lol:

Lisa Mentor

How wonderful to laugh! How great you all are. And how bright and quick so many of you are. Susan, if we get you "hooked-up" we will loose you to love. Got someone for you here, but your are GU (geographically, undesireable). Come east, and I can hook you up. Former Mayor, Huh.. :)

      I was tested back in 2017 and my TTG-IGA was mildly elevated (an 11 with reference range <4) but my EMA was negative and biopsy was negative. Fast forward to 2 weeks ago where I was like y'know what, I still have so many symptoms and I'm always so sick, I should repeat this, thinking it was not going to be positive.  I also found out through 23 and me that I do have the HLA-DQ2.5 gene so I thought it would be good to repeat given my ongoing symptoms. Well my blood work came back with a ttg-iga level of 152.6 with a reference range of <15 and my EMA was positive and EMA titer was 1:10 with reference range of <1:5. I guess I'm nervous that I'm going to do the biopsy and it's going to be negative again, especially since I also had an endoscopy in 2020, not to look for celiac but just as a regular 5 year thing I do because of all my GI issues, and they didn't see anything then either. I have no idea how long the EMA has been positive but I'm wondering if it's very recent, if the biopsy will show damage and if so, if they'll say well the biopsy is the gold standard so it's not celiac? I of course am doing all the things to convince myself that it isn't real. Do a lot of people go through this? I think because back in 2017 my ttg-iga was elevated but not a huge amount and my EMA was negative and my biopsy was negative, I keep thinking this time it's going to be different. But this time my ttg-iga is 152.6 with reference range <15, and my EMA was positive. BUT, my titer is only 1:10 and I keep reading how most people here had a ttg-iga in the hundreds or thousands, and the EMA titer was much higher. So now I am convinced that it was a false positive and when they do the biopsy it'll be negative.

      Welcome to the forum, @linnylou73! Are you claiming this based on a reaction or based upon actual testing?

      Sams club membermark columbian coffee is either cross contaminated or the pods contain gluten
    • KimMS

      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.
