I did not question Luc. Perhaps tomorrow. . ....... . . .but now, perhaps it's too late.. . ....... :huh:

too late because they're not coming back? or too late because....there's that unwritten rule about the phleeting window of opportunity to question a Frenchman about his ballcock? :lol:

Was out weeding the front flower bed, when Lefty, after careful contemplation, decided I was cold, so he came and draped himself around my neck. This resulted in a lot of giggling (me) and a severe work slow down (difficult to lean and pull when you're trying to avoid sudden movements that might require stabilization by claws).

I dumped him off, and he sat under the car watching me, reassessing the situation. The next conclusion he came to was that I wasn't cold, I was merely lacking in fur, so he sprawled on my lap in varying poses trying to achieve the most coverage per body part. The upshot of this was more giggling and a complete work stoppage.

:wub: Lefty's ALMOST the cutest (we know who really IS the cutest, now don't we?)

I wanna be interrupted like that whilst gardening!

A Weezel can do this for you also. :) She doesn't drape herself over me shoulders, but she does like to interrupt quite a bit.......

OH NOOOOOoooooo food shopping @ the pound shop 99 cent (no symbol) STORE young lady!!!

T'is a dangerous habit with unpredictable outcomings :blink:

:unsure: OMG 'tis true - see Janet's comment -

If memory serves me correctly . . . I do recall an incident which involved digging in the rubish bin for caramels from the 99 cent store . . . :lol:

:o

:lol: :lol: excellent memoreigh, Jan-it! Had forgotten that one meself! Alas, those caramels were from the dollar store, that much I do remember. The Dollar Store is actually quite posh compared to the 99 Cent Store.....gads. I discovered both of these stores last summer, and was briefly titillated.....cannot go back to 99 cent store again....it makes me depressed. I told my friend whom I was with with whom I was who was with me, last time I was there (a year ago) that, life is too short to make yerself to go depressing places by choice. :lol:

Ok . . . more from the book . . . the lead character ended up with some sort of rash on her arm from wearing some sort of patch (Bev) and also one of the characters is an avid gardener (Judy). Still looking/reading for frozen balls.

<_< Yer book is startin' to sound like Tall Tales by Em. :lol: I can believe the gardener part but.....the heroine with a patch and a rash? :lol:

That's interesting.....wonder why?

I keep meaning to ask (maybe I missed it)--why did you have him shaved?

He has thick curly hair and refused to be combed. Poor boy was so matted he nipped when his sides were touched.

Since he has been shorn, I plugged in the heated cat bed for him. Wee beastie never leaves it except to ask for snacks.

Did someone say ballcock? Why yes, I'd be happy to elaborate.....

It all started wif me cute plumber and whether he used a ballcock--which is an honest to goodness plumbing thing. Exactly what, I'm not sure....but I know it has somephin to do wif the works inside a toilet tank. ;)

Ok, maybe I wan't such a big help..... :huh:

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      How do I contact someone at celiac.com concerning the cessation of my weekly e-newsletter? I had been receiving it regularly for years. When I tried to sign-up on the website, my email was not accepted. I tried again with a new email address and that was rejected as well. Thank you in advance!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
