Bah! No fair you guys are getting snow! :angry: It was 67 degrees here today- we had all the windows open and the kids are wearing shorts.

And we didn't move down south till I was 10, old enough that I know what I'm missing!

sigh... we haven't gotten a decent snow in three winters now. Keeping our fingers crossed for this year!!!

I'd gladly trade--it was nasty today here--40 and rainy and gloomy. Just nasty :angry:

Our temp was in the 50's today. I'm not particularly fond of cold weather ... and I grew up in the north! I'd be perfecty happy to move back down south ... not Florida though .... I like a little bit of season change.

Man, our seasons change just TOO MUCH here...minus twenty in the winter, plus thirty-five in the summer...and HUMID!

We had snowflakes today, too. Gus likes to bite them. Such a childish goofball. Wait...I like to do that, too....

:rolleyes::D

Dang I let a good 'un RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIP last night - it startled Annie :lol: and I had a good chortle over it...........(um, I must recommend AGAINST, however, eating 2/3 of a canister of Archer Farms (Target) butter toffee popcorn w/ almonds/cashews. :ph34r::ph34r:

That Dingo Quinoa stuffing looks delicious...must try it, and thanks for the reprint, Richard! Will have to make a couple of substitutions...One sub-standard poodle in place of dingo... :lol:

:lol: yes, that'll do, and be sure to have some wine on hand. ;)

Ya! You guys are weirdos!! :lol::lol:

OMG we SO are!!!!!!!!!!!!! :wacko:

SNOW?? SNOW!! OMG - - some of you are having winter and some - in shorts? Shorts......I'm sorry Sarah....that is just WRONG........I think it's in the 60s here.......I am always DESPERATELY MAD to ahve a rainy and cozy Thanksgiving or Christmas - bloody never happens..............alas, THIS year, there MAY be a chance of rain that day - -

Susie is pleased!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes:

p.s. the wee snowy Angus is SOOOOOOOOOOOO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think he'd make a fine ebay model...................... :P

I know, it was just so not right.

I kicked back on the front porch, in shorts and a t-shirt, bare feet... watching the kids romp around in the yard, with ORANGE and RED leaves blowing gently in the warm breeze. :blink: Utterly bizarre!

They say it's supposed to get cold again by Friday... In NC, you can never pack away either type of clothes- summer or winter. It bounces up and down too much.

I remember one year, when I was a kid.... it was 72 a couple days before Christmas, and snowed a week later.

I have to admit, it was a pretty picture today at the Med Center, there were still red leaves on the trees and this fresh blanket of white snow, the first snow of the season. The color in the leaves just looked so much brighter. I wish I had my camera on me. I never saw anything that pretty in real life, only in picture books.

I suddenly remembered a quote that is on my list of favourites, from another hero of mine, The Great Oscar Wilde:

DingoGirl Enthusiast

Bloody sunny here. Bah! :angry: Well, it was dark and foggy in the morning, loved it, felt very holiday-ish. Now, sun coming out.........I am envious of you people with the dark gloom......I just think it makes the holidays SO MUCH cozier when it's cold and dark outside!!!!!!!

Patti - a heinous headache? whatever for? Feel better. :)

dear gawd, must get to work............ :ph34r:

If you see me here again, scream at me............. :huh:

Darn210 Enthusiast

Cooking has started. Today I'm making lasagne to freeze and take for Saturday night. I've made chex(type) mix, muddy buddies and tonight is the choc chip cookies. Everything gluten-free, of course so that the kiddos will have some proper treats when everyone else is going hog wild on the gluten stuff at my mom & dad's.

Doing Christmas while we are there so have to get all the presents wrapped as well. Somebody needs to start packing!!! Ugggghhhhh!!!!!!!

Good News! The head count is down to 19. I'm working on a sineous infection myself. Think I can get a doctor's note excusing me from the cooking?

Excellent motto . . . fits us, perfectly. And where do we go to buy these T-shirts and coffee mugs? Anybody selling them on ebay?

68 degrees here today . . . falling temps and rain tomorrow . . . snow and ice for Thanksgiving. Whatever. Just so it's not icy when we are driving.

Time to go kill that turkey.

Susie, get off and go do your work!!!!

Well, she was here when I started this post.

Happy cooking, Janet! Chocolate chip cookies sound good....I may make a batch.

Hey everyone! I'm one of those newbies Susie or Emily mentioned, who came across this thread by chance. I love it! :D

I really wish I had seen the toaster poster...although that was posted before I was diagnosed, so I wouldn't have had a reason to be here.

Also, to combine the cat comment and the dutch oven discussion, the absolute worst is when your cat farts on your pillow and/or you in bed. :blink:

For some reason the vision of some cute, cuddly, soft, warm, purring fluffball with weapons grade gas is hysterical.

Bloody sunny here. Bah! :angry:

Wonderfully sunny here! :) ahhhhhhhhhh .. . :)

If you see me here again, scream at me............. :huh:

:lol: riiiiiiiiight . . .. .

I spy w/ my little eye . .. . . Dingy here ~12:20p . .. .

<but tom's not falling for THAT again!>

Meanwhile, back at the fantastically located, but too small, apartment, I can let out a general purpose scream to be interpreted however one likes.

In my case, it's the annoyance & frustration of TOO MUCH STUFF!!! :angry:

Why do I have this? . . . .Why do I have THIS? .. . . . . Why does my roommate think the front/coat closet is a good place for his bin of extra sheets??!

Sounds like a good time for a trip to Salvation Army or Goodwill. :) I love getting rid of stuff!! :lol: So do my kids! It's hysterical. They get it from me ... hubby is a packrat .... but no more since we've moved so many times in the past few years.

Sunny here too, and 73 degrees. And Lucas has some kind of virus from hell and has been throwing up since 6am. The vomit and poop never ends around here.

Welcome, Joyful!

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out. 
    • lizzie42
      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior? 
    • trents
      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be. 
    • trents
      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
