Hi Sillies, just a poop by!

I had my nieces over for a sleepover (didnt get much sleep as little feet, hands, and bodies were kicking, hitting, and quite restless through the night :lol:) .....but I loved every minute of their visit of course.

Last night we had pop corn and watched the Spiderwick Chronicles, I thought it was a cute movie.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend :)

Julie- the sleepover seems like fun, yes very little sleep :) Remember when we were kids, we used to try to stay up all night long! I dont think I ever made it, and certainly couldnt make it now. I do know that I have stayed up all night when I worked a double shift iin the hospital during a snow storm, I worked the 2nd shift and then all of 3rd shift. My butt dragged home and I had a hard time getting to bed....

Hello Psillies!!!!!!!! Pooping in to say hello. Hope all in the path of Gustav are safe :( I can't believe they have to evacuate New Orleans again. I hope it's a little easier on all in the path than katrina was.

Fishing Tale

Four married guys go fishing. After an hour, the following conversation took

place:

First guy: 'You have no idea what I had to do to be able to come out fishing

this weekend. I had to promise my wife that I would paint every room in the

house next weekend.'

Second guy: 'That is nothing, I had to promise my wife that I would build

her a new deck for the pool.'

Third guy: 'Man, you both have it easy! I had to promise my wife that I

would remodel the kitchen for her.'

They continue to fish. When they realized that the fourth guy has not said a

word, they asked him. 'You haven't said anything about what you had to do to

be able to come fishing this weekend. What's the deal?'

Fourth guy: 'I just set my alarm for 5:30 am. When it went off, I shut off

my alarm, gave the wife a slap on her butt and said:

'Fishing or Sex?' and she said: 'Wear sun-block.' :lol:

Good Holiday Monday, Sillies!! :):)

Well, as we were speaking fondly of that great piece of literature and film from our childhoods, The Wizard of Oz, I can continue by telling you all how Wicked was.... . . ..Amanda, you MUST go and see this incredible production!! I was thinking of you throughout it last night, and how enthralled you would be at the way the original story is carried and how the magic of the classic film continues here. Very special!

But I will forever miss Bert Llar as the cowardly lion..... . . . .don't think I've mentioned this :ph34r: , but I was one of the homeliest babies around, quite seriously.... . .everyone said I looked exactly like Bert Llar until I was about two. Now that's one ugly baby!! <_<:ph34r::lol:

I'm grumpers because the skin under my PICC dressing is ALREADY breaking out again!!!!!! :angry:

Ahhh, yuck, Bev! :angry: But perhaps the breakout area will form a hazy visage about which you can contact the National Enquirer or the Examiner... . ....the face of Thomas Edison, or Sammy Davis Jr.,....... ..... . ..or Bert Llar, even... . . :lol::rolleyes:

Mornin' Everyone!!

Just checkin' in . . . I've been reading along but have not had anything worth posting . . .

Now, I have the results of the oatmeal cookie sampling. My first time making my oatmeal cookie recipe gluten free. Taste was fine and dandy. First half spread too much and got a bit too crispy. Second half (after adding a bit more flour) didn't spread quite enough but (IMO) better than the first half. Now . . . most people wouldn't be as picky, but I'm trying to get them just like they were before and the next batch should be poifect. My friend down the street demanded one (I love her, she always wants to see/taste what I'm cooking) and approved. The KIDS, on the other hand . . . well, I had to force them to try one. They both "claimed" they were good and then refused any others . . . I'm sure if I added chocolate chips it wouldn't be a problem . . . but just as I don't like raisens in my oatmeal cookies, I don't like choc chips in them either. Oh well, more for me and me hubby. Oh, and no problems for me daughter after eating the cookie.

The Pamela's baking contest ended yesterday. I'm sure I'll be notified any day now that I have won the grand prize. :P

Awwwww . . Baby EmiLahrly

Em- was this the Wizard of Oz play which is on tour now,if so they are making a stop in Scranton and I was really thinking of going. Glad to hear it was done very well.

Hi Sillies-

Not sure what we are doing today...We only work tomorrow and Weds and then we have vacation until next Tuesday. But we meet with our mortgage guy on Weds!!! So we are moving along :)

Woohoo!

Yesterday I went through all my clothes and came up with two garbage bags full to donate

I've been doing the same thing......though I'm afraid to get rid of my favorite clothes.......always afraid the weight will creep back. My theory is.....if you hold on to things, you'll never need them.

Had several people tell me I should read Wicked......although I was never fond of The Wizard of Oz. Those flying monkeys used to creep me out! :ph34r:

I've been reading but not posting, also. Janet, at the very least you should be Pamela's spokesperson. ;) You are always pushing the product around here....and you also did when we met. :P

We had a cookout yesterday with DD and her boyfriend. They wanted brats and he reminded me to buy hotdog buns for him. He has now been dubbed "Gluten Boy".

Hi all :D

Nuthin to add here either but wanted to say hello. :)

Your cookies sound good to me, Jan-it....I have to work up the courage to try the pure oats--Gawd, now all I can think about is a bowl of oatmeal wif maple syrup and butter.....(droolface) Glad your daughter didn't react--this will give her more variety :)

Wouldn't it be somephin' if you won the Pamela's contest!! :D

Aw Em--You looked like Burt Llar....I bet you were cute, though :D Maybe you can find a baby pic of yerself and let us be the judge....we won't laugh....hee :P

I cleaned out me closet/dresser last month when the ACS had a truck in the area. Got rid of 2 garbage bags full of stuff I've been holding on to for way too long. I always think "I'll wear it sometime" but always seem to wear the same stuff over and over .

Of course, when I make room I figure I can get a few new things to "fill in" :lol:

Beautiful day today B) Need to get to the nursery and get plants fer me winder boxes.....cleaned em out last week and they look so empty....wish I had a green thumb like Judith :unsure::rolleyes:

I used to love oatmeal cookies with butterscotch chips, that was the only kind I liked, not chocolate chip or raisin and definitely no nuts. Anyone had any luck with baking with kasha (buckwheat groats) instead of oats? I don't think I can have oats, it's not even worth it to me to try anyway. I'd be sick for a month. But boy do I miss oatmeal cookies...... Not that I can find any BLOODY gluten-free butterscotch chips around here anyway.

:angry:

Bunnie!! Methinks you're new here.... . . . ...unless I've been extremely unobservant (not unlikely) and you've been posting regularly...... :huh: If not, welcome to this madness!!

....I will stop there....... <_<:ph34r::lol:

I successfully make an oatmeal-type porridge with kasha, and quinoa also. They're yummy..... :)

Wouldn't it be somephin' if you won the Pamela's contest!! :D

Yes!! We may see Janet's face on Pamela's packages, the new Logo Lady....holding a wooden spoon, wearing a nice tall chef's hat and oven mitts, face dusted with rice flour...... .. .. . ;):lol:

Aw Em--You looked like Burt Llar....I bet you were cute, though . Maybe you can find a baby pic of yerself and let us be the judge....we won't laugh....hee :P

Gad..........actually, there are NO pictures of me as a baby, for obvious reasons. :huh::lol: Actually, perhaps there are one or two, but I've been told that cameras just weren't pulled out when I was in anyone's arms, or lying in my carriage.. . . .nope, relatives and friends would just smile politely, and say things like, "she's so well behaved!" :lol:

JNBunnie1 . . . do we know your (first) name? I always wonder when somebody's name isn't in their signature if I've actually read it somewhere or 'nuther (like HappyGirl) . . . or shall we make one up? . . . 'cause we can't be writing JNBunnie1 all the time, fer sure!!

Gad..........actually, there are NO pictures of me as a baby, for obvious reasons. :huh::lol:

There are no baby pictures of me either . . . I was the fourth of five children, they were so done with the picture taking of the babies by that time. When my great aunt passed away (I think I was in my late 20's at the time), my grandfather (her brother) got quite a few of her snapshots/photo albums . . . and in one of these, my mom found a couple of baby pictures of me. She says to me . . . Look, Janet there are too baby pictures of you!! . . . in a perfectly serious tone that implied "now quit yer complaining." To which I responded . . . yes, thank goodness the great aunt that I saw one Sunday a year always took pictures when she came to help keep track of which kids were which!!! . . . not like my own mother needed to do that!!! . . . :lol: . . . she always had to ask me when my birthday was when she was filling out forms (doctor/school/etc) for me. This is why, most likely, I'm not an overly sensitive sort.

See . . . now Emily has started calling you Bunnie . . . you better come up wif sumptin' or you'll be stuck wif what we give you!!

      Good day! New members here and I have a question about medication. My gastroenterologist made me stop some medication during the gluten challenge beforenthe screening test but I have a little surgery tomorrow and I need to know if I can use tylenol for half a day or if it will give me false results using it.   Thanks 
    • Scott Adams
      I agree, there can be contamination at many points--milling is another possible source of contamination for any flours.
    • trents
      Keep in mind that with manufactured food products, "gluten free" doesn't equate to no gluten. Things that are naturally gluten free can be cross-contaminated with gluten in the field, in shipping and in processing. In the U.S. companies can use the gluten free label as long as the product doesn't exceed 20ppm of gluten. That amount still may cause a reaction in some people.

      Dd10 was tested for celiac four years ago bc two siblings were dx’d (positive labs and biopsies). Her results at the time were positive ema  and ttg (7x the UL), but a negative biopsy. We checked again three months later and her ttg was still positive (4x the UL), but ema and biopsy were negative. Doc said it was “potential celiac” and to keep eating gluten, but we were concerned about harming her growth and development while young and had her go gluten-free because we felt the labs and ema in particular were very suggestive of early celiac, despite the negative biopsies. She also had stomach aches and lethargy when eating it. We just felt it’d be better to be safe than sorry. Now, four years later, she doesn’t want to be gluten-free if she doesn’t “have to be,” so underwent a 12 week gluten challenge. She had labs done before starting and all looked great (celiac panel all negative, as expected.) Surprisingly, she experienced no noticeable symptoms when she began eating gluten again, which we felt was a positive sign. However, 12 weeks in, her labs are positive again (ttg 4x the UL and ema positive again as well). Doc says that since she feels fine and her previous two biopsies showed nothing, she can just keep eating gluten and we could maybe biopsy again in two years. I was looking up the ema test and the probability of having not just one but two false positives, and it seems ridiculously low.  Any advice? Would you biopsy again? She’s old enough at this point that I really feel I need her buy-in to keep her gluten-free, and she feels that if the doc says it’s fine, then that’s the final word — which makes me inclined to biopsy again and hope that it actually shows damage this time (not because I want her to have celiac like her sisters, but because I kind of think she already does have it, and seeing the damage now would save her more severe damage in the long run that would come from just continuing to eat gluten for a few more years before testing again.)  Our doc is great - we really like him. But we are very confused and want to protect her. One of her older sibs stopped growing and has lots of teeth problems and all that jazz from not catching the celiac disease sooner, and we don’t want to get to that point with the younger sis. fwiw- she doesn’t mind the biopsy at all. It’s at a children’s hospital and she thinks it’s kind of fun. So it’s not like that would stress her out or anything.

      Thanks for the replies. I already use a gluten-free brand of buckwheat flakes I occasionally get itchy bumps. I'm still reviewing all my food products. I occasionally eat prepackaged gluten-free crackers and cookies, so I'll stop using those. I use buckwheat flakes and Doves Farm flour as a base for baking. Would you recommend eliminating those as well? It's a constant search.
