Summerfest

It is Summerfest time again...It is a huge outdoor music festival here in Milwaukee. It is sooooo much fun to walk around and see all of the bands and dance and eat (I can only get corn on the cob) and drink!! It is Miller country here, or should I say beer country here!!?? We were walking past the Lakefront Brewery stand and there was the NEW GRIST sign!! I drank a cold, tap beer!!! :D Everyone I was with kept laughing at me because I was so excited!! It was the same price as the other beer too!! I kept telling them thank you and could you please bring this back next year.

If anyone is interested in seeing how big of a festival this is, just visit www.summerfest.com. We went to Tom Petty/Pearl Jam on the "pay" stage. All of the other acts were included in the admission price.

How exciting for us!!! :lol:

Wow, I thought tap beer was one of the "never again" treats. What a hope-inspiring story! I too would have been dancing for joy!

Never seen someone so happy to spend 5 dollars for a beer. You see the article in the journal sentinel a few days ago about Lakefront Brewery and New Grist?

I am super duper excited for you! I was at the Taste of Chicago last night... I too enjoyed some corn on the cob... and frozen bananas dipped in chocolate... I miss eating and drinking the other stuff... but I focus on the fun times!!!

I can't believe they had NEW GRIST ON TAP! Very good news.

Smiles to you,

On a side note, I just saw Pearl Jam last night at the MGM Grand Arena.

Eddie was hammered, but performed for almost 2.5 hours straight. The arena went crazy when they played "Betterman", "Alive", "Black" and "Daughter"...

Darn good show!!!

Ah, for a gluten-free mimic of Guinness's Extra Stout.

here is a link to the article about New Grist/ gluten free beer if anyone is interested: Open Original Shared Link

I think it is awesome Anheuser-Busch is consider a gluten free beer...although I really hope Miller jumps on the bandwagon.

Eddie went to my high school (years and years before I did - obviously :)). He apparantly dated our attendance lady (when she was in high school there too). It was pretty funny to think that the lady handing out detentions and Saturday schools used to date Eddie Vedder.

Hmmm... I was guessing that it would be viewed as though at such a big festival they were serving gluten free beer and it was the same price as regular beer. Those that know gluten-free beer at the store, it is a lot more money than regular.

Yes, I did see the article.

I was just joking around about Summerfest's prices, I was not trying to downplay about Lake Front serving New Grist there.

      Hi. So sorry to hear about your shingles. There is a lidocaine cream that you can get at Walmart that will help numb the pain.  That's what I used for mine. It can't be put near your eyes or in your ears. I hope your doctor gave you valacyclovir which is an antiviral.  It does lessen the symptoms. If it is in your eyes,  see an ophthalmologist.  They have an antiviral eye drop that can be prescribed.  Shingles in the eye could cause blindness.  I was unsure whether you have celiac or not.  If you do,  follow the diet.  I believe that extra stress on your body does affect everything. Shingles can recur. If you start getting the warning signs of nerves tingling,  see the dr and start taking the valacyclovir to prevent a breakout. If I sound technical,  I am a retired pharmacist.

      You are right to be proactive, as research does indicate that individuals with celiac disease can have a higher predisposition to enamel defects, cavities, and periodontal issues, even with excellent oral hygiene. While many people with celiac successfully undergo orthodontic treatment without complication, your caution is valid. It may be beneficial to seek a consultation with an orthodontist who is familiar with managing patients with autoimmune conditions or who is willing to collaborate with your daughter's gastroenterologist or a periodontist. They can perform a thorough assessment of her current oral health, discuss your specific concerns about recession and decay, and create a tailored hygiene plan. This second opinion could provide a clearer risk-benefit analysis, helping you decide if addressing the cosmetic concern of the lower teeth is worth the potential risks for your daughter, especially if they are not currently affecting function or her confidence.

      This is an older article, but still helpful:

      It's strange because I'm pretty sure not too long ago I picked up a loaf of bread with B vitamins, but I can't find a single one now.  Probably cutbacks, everyone's trying to save money now!
    • Scott Adams
      Eating grains typically depletes certain B vitamins, so I'm not sure why they decided to fortify with calcium and iron, but hopefully we'll see more B vitamin fortification in gluten-free products going forward.
