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 :)

curlyfries Contributor
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".

jerseyangel Proficient

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!!

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y
    • Scott Adams
      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
