He'll probably do his thing where he quotes everything he wants to comment on and makes a VERY long single post from it!!! It'll take him all day, then it'll take us a week to read and comprehend the whole thing :lol::lol::lol:

OMG--that IS probably what he'll do! :D

I was wondering if I was in the wrong thread for some "adult" talk. ;)

I don't know about "adult" talk. We're not talking about Altoids or anything--just general gabbery :lol:

Do you think he'll be upset at the mess that we've made of this thread, or would he be upset if there was nobody here? I mean if you have to come home to a messy "house", isn't it better to walk in on a party?

There's adult, and then there's ADULT (looks around for Karen :ph34r: )

True--most likely he'll just jump right back in!

I think the "fart on a skillet" :blink: might illicit a comment from him!

I'm guessing you got tired of being the adult, and that's why you popped in over here! ;)

Or would it be that I'm the kid and playing on the computer too much? :blink::ph34r:

I don't know how you do it! When I was working (I quit to be a mommy in 1999), we had just gotten mailine computers (I worked for a bank, accounting) with windows. I always enjoyed minesweeper, which a coworker showed me. We always had to watch for the boss. I always got my work and others work done though. I spent some time reading too. :ph34r: When I worked there they were nice enough to let us have our own music (since we weren't on the teller line). They changed that the year after I left.

Our main database software is down for maintenance/upgrades (for 4 days) so there is not much I could be doing!

Unlike me and you, probably haveing a productive day getting things done out there in the real world some place....

Hey, I'm being productive, I'm resting and healing, that's my job right now!!!! Doctor's orders!!! And, I've been to the grocery, done a load of laundry, and the big task of feeding myself fresh food all day!

You guys are hysterical.

Patti, I'm waiting for my chai to brew, then I'll test the almond milk!!

Richard, we can't have dairy!!! Or soy!!! But, yes, before I was off dairy, I loved them! I even loved eggnog lattes better!!

I am drinking a FOAMY spiced rooibos chai! It's very good! So, Patti, almond milk does foam, not exactly the same as dairy, but it's still foam! Now, what was that thread called?

Just add "milk"

Open Original Shared Link

...and yes, it is gluten free!

Or if you'd like to do it the hard way:

Enjoy!

Oh! Didn't even think of premade chai since I'm not supposed to have sugar! That can be made with almond milk! The stuff I've had is chai with real eggnog ... The stuff I'm making now is just chai tea that I brewed with almond milk. That sugary stuff is better, but can't have it!

What about the homemade recipe? (Could you replace the milk/cream with something)

I've only been a lurker on this thread, but had to come share your pain about no eggnog at Christmas. I haven't had eggnog for 10 Christmases and for some reason was just talking about it yesterday and feeling sorry for myself. Do you think there's any way to make "fakenog" with almond milk, thickener and spices?

Yea we need get my son re-tested for egg, I am holding on tight to the belief that he will out grow his egg allergy very soon! In fact might get him tested again nextmonth!

Oh man!!!! That's right....we can't have eggnog anymore. :(:(:angry:

We used to drink Silk Nog and are soy intolerant. We've gone dairy free as I'm dairy allergic, don't know about the kids yet. I suspect they are too since there enterolab scores were about the same as mine, which if I'm right would be mildly allergic.

:(:(:( So much for the party. :angry:

I'd have to look up some recipes online. I just sold a cookbook that had an eggnog recipe in it. It did use soy though, but if it had just been milk it would have been easy to sub.

I'm not sure it would be possible to make dairy-free, soy-free, egg-free "egg"nog. I'm positive that flax seeds and Ener-G egg replacer wouldn't work for it.

Chai nog

An Eggnog Alternative

2 Chai tea bags

5 cups water

2 tsp. grated fresh ginger

2 tsp. grated orange peel

1 tsp. grated lemon peel

2 sticks cinnamon, broken in half

1/4 cup honey

1 1/2 cups milk

1 1/2 cups whipped cream

1 tsp. vanilla

In saucepan, bring water, ginger, peels, and

cinnamon to boil. Add tea bags and steep for

7 minutes. Add honey, vanilla, milk, and cream

to liquid. To serve hot, reheat liquid; or serve cold

over crushed ice. Makes 8 cups.

Could you use one of the milk alternitives in that?

Hmmm, rice or almond milk for the milk, but NOTHING is as yummy, rich, fatty or decadent as real whipped cream.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By SusanJ · Posted

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      @tiffanygosci, Thiamine deficiency is a thing in pregnancy for "normal" people, so it's exponentially more important for those with celiac disease and malabsorption issues. I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I was curious what the vitamins were doing inside the body.  See my blog.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll to drop down menu "activities" and select blog.   So glad you're motivated to see the dietician!  We're always happy to help with questions.  Keep us posted on your progress!

      Thank you for sharing all of this, Knitty Kitty! I did just want someone to share some commonality with. I did not know This one Deficiency was a thing and that it's common for Celiac Disease. It makes sense since this is a disorder that causes malabsorption. I will have to keep this in mind for my next appointments. You also just spurred me on to make that Dietician appointment. There's a lot of information online but I do need to see a professional. There is too much to juggle on my own with this condition.<3
