Sounds good, I will have to work on it this evening.

I want to get to Rochester one day, to the Tastings Restuarant at their one store, they serve gluten free things.

At my Harrisburg store the other day, I inquired about a salad that was in the deli case, and the chef came out and told me it was gluten free and then he told me he just got back from a Celiac Conference and such. Very impressive.

Hopefully one day you will have a Weggies closer to home. Or next time you go to Rochester stop in one of their stores, I hear Danny walks the aisles all the time.

He has agreed - with one catch. He wants his picture taken with you and Danny Wegman. Chuck's a big fan.

The whole incident reminds me of a friend who said she could understand why some species eat their young!

mmmm, Carla....

I wouldn't try that with all your food and lyme issues. Heaven only knows what kind of reaction you'd have to 'surly teenager'.

If he hints about staying just tell him to frisk his wookie and be done with it.

Yeah, now he's tough and unpleasant .... that's why animals eat their young when they're really young! :lol:

My answer to him is, Great! I'll help you pack! LOL

A girl that I used to work with said for her 18th birthday, her mom gave her luggage . . . just in case you hadn't thought of anything yet.

Richard, that is an INCREDIBLE avatar. The bar's been raised, and I can't imagine anyone topping that one. :lol::lol::lol:

Amanda, you could fire off a wedding invitation to Danny, and then your photographer can take a professional shot of Chuck with him. In fact, why don't we approach Danny for a corporate involvement in the parade?! Yes...we could advertise for them (large Wegman's float, perhaps, which he would be riding, with Chuck alongside)...Does Wegman's sell machine guns? We can give them that business, as well.

We haven't got Weggie's up here. Just a poor Canadian box-store attempt, Zellers. Now that our dollar is above par, I must try to get down there and find me a close Wegman's.

Carla, tell your son to get in this parade. A surly teenager can only come out of this endeavor a different, better person--he can measure the yeti's inseam, as apparently I may risk...exciting him... :o:lol:

In my vast photograhic experience, I have found that nothing "makes" a picture quite like a little Chuck Norris. B)

'Manda - No thanks necessary, please just accept this a an early wedding gift. I'm sure Chuck will understand. I'm sending the doubles to him. :)

If he's not sure where to go, tell him to let the yeti lead.

How about a change of address card from the USPS? Cards are always nice. It's the thought that counts :rolleyes::P

Susan did an interpretive dance

Until the yeti lead with his prance

She was immediately enamored

With the yeti's malodour

Enough to put down her wine glass!

Tom brought the Yeti to wash

But alas he was too big to squash

Into the bathtub, Tom tugged and tugged

And settled on perfume so posh.

Light wanted to braid the yeti's fur

With seashells that would make yeti purr

He still was quite smelly

As Tom didn't wash his belly

So light bathed him in balsam fir.

NICE AVATAR SUSIE! And TOM! And Richard....

The yeti held Chuck in his arms

Protecting all of his manly charms

Till Chuck round-housed kicked

The yeti through a wall of brick

Now the Yeti lets Chuck lead without harm.

BEV oh my LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORD :lol:

And yes *glances around* I am slacking off on science. I'm SUPPOSED to be doing a quiz... BUT!!! yeah.

But LOOK how you are developing your creative and wacky imaginary skills here, with us!!!!! WHERE ELSE will you get to braid seashells into the stinky yeti's hair!!!!!!!! :P

:ph34r:guilty of having too much time on my hands :ph34r:

I could set up an appointment for you and Chuck to get together if you're interested :huh:

BTW are you channeling Munkustrap in your avatar? There is something very familiar about the pose...

elye Community Regular

Rarely am I at a loss for words, but Richard, your avatar design skills do, in fact, leave me speechless. However, it is becomig surreal--I, as well, think Amanda is posting when it is you. So NOW we must remain witty AND keep an eye on who is saying what, and it could be a trick!.....owwwww, my little brain....

Carla! Your herx must have been dragging on...the yeti's been around for many pages. I cannot even begin to summarize for you his raison d'etre in our parade. You must go back and read. Go on...go...Let the Yeti Lead...

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools. 
    • trents
      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.
    • SilkieFairy
      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/
