Yes, its the Strawberry that drops because that area in H-burg is called Strawberry Square :)

Um.......I thought you were talking about a cocktail called Strawberry Drops. :lol: are you saying that a giant strawberry comes down, like Dick Clark's descending crystal orb? :blink:

Just think of the mess . . . unless . . . perhaps . . . it falls on some shortcake, or ice cream, or whip cream . . . OK, maybe we should look into this.

Wasn't there a doll affiliated with the Care Bears named Strawberry Shortcake? Sounds like a job for the Care Bears, if you ask me..... :lol:

:P both........

OMG - I am trying a new trick with my old Stinker. See, all she does now, every single day of her life, is stay in bed the ENTIRE day, comes out only once or twice to eat and pee..... my poor baby. :( Then........she wants to go outside at night.......and then.......she barks every 90 seconds to five minutes.....so JUST when you're drifting off to sleep - a big bark.

So mommy has decided we're not going to play this reindeer game any more......Stinker has been SHUT OUT of her bedroom......I'm making her stay out here with us all day and keeping her awake. :lol: She keeps asking to go into her bed but I am NOT letting her.

Ah, the joys of mothering a psychotic, panic-stricken dingo. :blink::lol:

I'll take this one, St. Peter, as I have one of these in my household. He has recently switched to soap, as he now has very little left on top and he's only washin' skin, now. Oh, to be young again....

He does sport a beard, however...I wonder if he uses shampoo on it? Hmm. Peter, does he?

Sarah! Start posting! We've missed you!

Indeed, it took quite some time to catch up! Thank you all for noticing I was gone!!! :wub: Of course there's been body fluids involved- there always is at my house. :rolleyes: Christmas glutenings for everyone- <_< - but never so bad as to ruin Christmas. I have to say, catching up on all your posts made me want it to be Christmas all over again! *sigh*

Let's see if I can remember everything I wanted to comment on (not a chance.)

Bhutto assassination- too sad and discouraging. :(

Hitting a deer- scary!

Wooster-sauce- good stuff!

Stuffed shells- YUM, any left over?

Inebriated sillies all around- :lol:

Turkey gravy- I found 365 gluten-free turkey gravy at Whole Foods!!! I paid ridiculous amounts of $$ for 4 jars, and it did NOT turn into hot gravy jello upon re-heating.

umm....

Susie falling through a hedge forwards- Heinous! What was that dog chasing... reindeer?

Well.... one more bite of chocolate, and I just might barf. Time for Sarah to go on a serious after-holidays-DIET!!! It's been raining for days, but is supposed to clear up tomorrow. I think I'll work on the gardens. Also must get one of my tractor-owning neighbors to come over and till up the big garden.

It's almost time to get ready for early spring planting! Onions, carrots, salad greens can all go in in 2 months. And it takes me FOREVER to get everything ready by myself, as my hubby has no interest in gardening until it's time to eat. :lol:

Well, I'm off. Happy New Year's Eve Eve! lol

SARAH! :rolleyes: and there she is, she's found her way back to Sillyville!!!!!!!

OMG the gravy success! what a coup! So....must look into this 365 gravy.......

and you are NOT kidding on teh diet!!!!!! :o I found these extreeeeeeeeeeeemely evil french salt caramels at Trader JOe's. Went through three things of them in less than two weeks. ANd then there was all the other candy, and the homemade marshmallows. :ph34r: so, I think I am only going to have sugar now in my coffee and oatmeal, and maybe maple syrup on the pancakes once or twice a week. Other than that - NO SUGAR ALLOWED. I am a candy addict.....and it makes me quite tired when I consume lots o' sugar. BAH!!!!!!!!!

Between the candy, the lunar (read: menstrual :ph34r: ) cycle night sweats, and a senile, barking dingo, I am exhausted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :mellow:

OMG Emily - yes, what does your husbnad use to wash his beard? Um, BTW, have you checked to see if there are any wee hoglets nestled therein? :blink::lol:

okay....must head out now....... procuring New Year's eve snacks and movies.......

mygawd, I have REALLY got to get a life........ :huh:

Well....There WERE. I've been having trouble figuring how to say this to everyone...but, yes, there were messy hedgehogs in DH beard. But, um...hedgehog babies seem to be something of a delicacy in the diet of...yetis. So, he's eaten quite well. Thank gawd standard poodles are not to his liking, or cats. :o

Guess we've got him for New Years Eve, then he could go up north with MIL, unless anyone would like him for a stay. Susie, he hasn't been with you, yet. Or Tom--but I think I remember an allergy, there...

Sarah!! He could help with the pre-gardening chores!

Susie- We did our honeymoon in the Finger Lakes, it was so nice up there. We didn't get to any wineries though since we were short on time.

My wine drinking at dinner was more than usual. I was ok sitting, but then I had to go upstairs to go to the bathroom. I was wearing this nice plaid skirt and sweater and my Mary Janes with the clunky heels...I tripped over their bathroom scale and almost landed face first into the toliet!

That wine was very much like candy for me....Thankfully MIL was drinking just as much...

OMG- I was trying to catch up but I saw this and had to stop because I couldn't stop laughing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can see it now in slow motion......imagine if you HAD landed face first in the toilet? And I like your MIL very much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kurt and I ran away for a few days and you know what? He stole my Hasslehoff book and didn't give it back! I think he has a secret crush :P OMG-the writing in it, even to my Lymied brain , is PAINFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sarah, so sorry about the glutenings :( HEINOUS! Hope you guys get to feeling better soon!

I'm jealous of your gardening, if I lived closer I would come and help you so I could learn how to do it :lol:

Speaking of candy, I have a weakness for toffee around the holidays, there's this little locally owned candy shop that makes the best to die for buttery little squares of toffee goodness dipped in fine chocolate and nuts.....I ate many between Thanksgiving and Christmas :ph34r:

And OMG, did you notice Crate and Barrell, or was it Williams Sonoma...can't rember, had MARSHMALLOWS wrapped in CARAMEL??? Genius!! I stayed far away from these however.

I also LOVE Sound of music, such a great movie

Well, me and old musicals...can't live without 'em. But I have to admit, SOM is my least favorite. I've tried and tried over the years...sigh. Really good, historically gripping story, but the music...bah. Love Julie's yodelling, however, and the marionnette scene is terrific... :D

I am ill!! <_<

OK, if we're voting . . . I like SOM . . . favorite song is Edelweiss.

But NOW we're talking candy . . . absolutely all time favorite is toffee. If it is around, I can not stay away from it.

Seems a little early for gardening. Does that mean that you've already got you Christmas stuff down, Sarah? And has anybody heard if the special adhesive garland (ie, duct tape) was all that Alex needed to finish off her tree?

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Gigi2025 · Posted

      No, I've not been diagnosed as celiac.  Despite Entero Labs being relocated to Switzerland/Greece, I'll be doing another test. After eating wheat products in Greece for 4 weeks, there wasn't any reaction.  However, avoiding it here in the states.   Thanks everyone for your responses.

      Oral thrush question

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thank you @JulieRe so much for sharing this extra information. I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better and I hope it keeps moving in that direction. I feel I'm having so many lightbulb moments on this forum just interacting with others who have this condition. I also was diagnosed with gastric reflux maybe about 10 years ago. I was prescribed ranitidine for it several years back, which was working to reduce my gastric reflux symptoms but then the FDA took ranitidine off the shelves so I stopped taking it. I had a lot of ups and downs healthwise in and around that time (I suddenly gained 20 pounds, blood pressure went up, depression got worse, and I was diagnosed with OSA). At the time I attributed my change in symptoms to me taking on a new stressful job and didn't think much else about it. They did give me a replacement gastric reflux drug since ranitidine was off the shelves, but when I went on the CPAP for my OSA, the CPAP seemed to correct the gastric reflux problem so I haven't been on any gastric reflux drug treatment for years although I still do have to use a CPAP for my OSA. Anyway that's a long story but just to say… I always feel like I've had a sensitive stomach and had migraines my whole life (which I'm now attributing to having celiac and not knowing it) but I feel my health took a turn for much worse around 2019-2020 (and this decline started before I caught covid for the first time). So I am now wondering based on what you said, if that ranitidine i took could have contributed to the yeast overgrowth, and that the problem has just been worsening ever since. I have distinctly felt that I am dealing with something more than just stress and battling a more fundamental disease process here. I've basically been in and out of different doctor specialties for the past 5 years trying to figure out what's wrong with me. Finally being diagnosed with celiac one year ago, I thought I finally had THE answer but now as I'm still sick, I think it's one of a few answers and that maybe yeast overgrowth is another answer. For me as well, my vitamin deficiencies have persisted even after I went gluten-free (and my TTG antibody levels came down to measurably below the detectable limit on my last blood test). So this issue of not absorbing vitamins well is also something our cases have in common. I'm now working with a nutritionist and taking lots of vitamins and supplements to try and remedy that issue. I hope that you continue to see improvements in working with your naturopath on this. Keep us posted!

      I think I am gluten intolerant

      By ElenaM · Posted

      Hello everyone. I am Elena and am 38 years old. I suspect I have a gluten intolerance even if my celiac panel is ok. I have the following symptoms : facial flushing, Red dots not bumps în face, bloating abdominal distension, hair loss, depression anxiety even with meds and even bipolar. Fatigue extreme to the point of not being able to work. All of these after I eat gluten. Could I have non celiac gluten sensitivity? Thanks anyone else with these symptoms?

      Oral thrush question

      By JulieRe · Posted

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.
