If yall just heard a scream- nay, an ear-splitting SHRIEK- of pure shock and rage coming from a southerly direction, that was ME! Somebody just suggested to a 13 year old child that it's ok to order food with a little gluten, as long as you take some GlutenEase with it! :angry::angry: :angry:

:angry: Just the sort of false information we do not want coming from this board (or to people in general). For heaven's sake!

Amanda!! This is why we sane (and hilarious) individuals must stick together! Thank gawd fer Sillyville...... . ..

I gotta commend everyone for jumping to the aid of that poor, confused thirteen year-old before he picked up his bottle of Glutenease and headed for Pizza Hut. You all sounded serious but caring and concerned, and that's exactly what was needed.

Well.....I had two glasses of champagne and one glass of wine, floated around the pool and chattered on and on about life, death and everything.

AND THEN, SOMETHING INCREDIBLE....... :lol::lol:

I went into our hostess's gorgeous house to go pee. While I was sitting on the toilet, I reached for one of the magazines that were stacked in a basket beside me. I pulled out an ancient Readers Digest....from 1978. Bemused, I flip through it. And there it was. Unbelievable. A two-page feature entitled "I Am Fifi's Anal Glands". I was chortling madly....could not read it, just looked at the diagram and continued laughing.

The chances of that.......

I should have asked my friend if I could take the article, and put the diagram up as my av.

Did you know that they can get impacted, just like wisdom teef? :blink:<_<

The Pringles light (or something like that) appear to have no gluten. However, after consuming an entire can for dinner (yea, whatever, keep it to yerself) I can tell you that eating that much Open Original Shared Link is a very bad idea :ph34r:

There it is!!! But that article is new - - honest to gawd, this was truly in a 1978 Readers Digest. I'm wondering if it was the same author as the writer in The Dog Star Daily, reprinting on a 30th anniversary er sumthin'......

Anyway, I did not read the article, as I was laughing and had to get back to my company, so I don't know if it is the same. Toooooo phuneeeeeee..........

Okay.....you guys still think I've imagined all this, don'cha?

...How much champagne DID I have, anyways?....... :unsure:

I walked calmly into the camp, spotted Jack amongst a group of other kids, waved, and he trotteed over, obviously surprised. He said, "Hey, Mom.....you're here! Man, I was sure you were gonna be SO late. You had yer debauchery lunch today, didn't you?" :lol::blink::ph34r:

Oh, and, Weezee's been scootin' her arse on the carpet again. <_< Must go for the squeeze again, at the vet's. harrumphhhhhfffff

Are you sure you both haven't had a little sumphin on the side? <_< Everything is hunky dory here.

*snort* :lol: 'twould seem that way, eh?

I know YOU GUYS read it. It's the people that actually should be trying to learn something that skip over other people's non-supportive comments.

(Thanks for the g-ease bump, Patti . Makes me feel like we're some sort of conspiracy group, dedicated to irradicating ignorance (and failing, badly))

that made me crack up........

I haven't gone outside of psillyville much.......that thread was too long to read but.....

PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!! What are you THINKING, posting with The Others???????????????????

(actually, sound advice IS needed there evidently)

Poor Amanda was trying to explain what actually happened in clinical trials in a hospital, and even that had to be "bested".

harrummmphff :angry: Even Patteeey was about to blow? that's really saying sumfin'

I do love how we discuss our things about other posters here, on the WORLD WIDE WEB - 'snot like anybuddy kan see it er nuttin' :lol:

Zao Chen Hao, Sillies! (Mandarin Good Morning in anticipation of Beijing 2008).....

Can it be possible that tomorrow is August 1st??! :o Where is the summer going? We've had so much dampness here, it feels like summer just began this week. Sigh..........

Unfortunately, I was glutened at my lunch get-together yesterday. Dunno what it was, but can barely get me shorts done up this morn (just looooove this look :angry: ) and the cramps are here.....

Being glutened also causes my blood sugar to spike, so there was that to deal wif as well. Exercise is my signature way of combatting spikes, so I shall attempt a good run this am.

Fat belly and all.

OMG.....Janet!! I am now officially your avatar........The resemblance is striking and fearful. Perhaps I'd best exercise in the house....... :lol:

Morning Everyone!

So I am off @ 12 today and will be gone the rest of the week to my moms for our annual summer fun August. We always take a few days together to do this and I love it. We plan on go wild berry picking in the morning on Friday. I do have to pick John up tomorrow but my mom and I are going to hit up Sal's, which by the way you guys have got to see my new tank top I got there yesterday at 1/2 price day. I love it! Very intricate looking.

we always take my mom to the fireworks tomorrow evening. Saturday is the annual town parade....is our float registered? We still have time to get it in order!!!!

Then we are heading to the county fair. I decided not to enter any artwork this year, I haven't had the time to focus on it as much. I am going to check out what other entries there are. There is so many talented artists that enter the fair. It is always fun.

So if you don't hear from me as much. I will try to check in. Bye Guys!!!!

      Insomnia help

      Thank you for your post, @nanny marley It is interesting what you say about 'It's OK not to sleep'. Worrying about sleeping only makes it much harder to sleep. One of my relatives is an insomniac and I am sure that is part of the problem. Whereas I once had a neighbour who, if she couldn't sleep, would simply get up again, make a cup of tea, read,...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Thank’s for addressing the issue of mushrooms. I was under the impression that only wild mushrooms were gluten-free. Have been avoiding cultivated mushrooms for years. Also, the issue of smoked food was informative. In France last year, where there is hardly any prepared take-out food that is gluten-free, I tried smoked chicken. Major mistake!

The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind

Last week I decided to try a Floradix Magnesium supplement which seems to be helping me to sleep better.  It is a liquid magnesium supplement, so easy to take.  It is gluten free (unlike the Floradix iron supplement).  Might be worth a try.
