This is what happens when our Queen of Emotionocons becomes AWOL.

YES!!! Where is our Queen during this time of upheaval within her Empire?? Do you think Queen Erica could be behind this emoticutback? Perhaps her parents are. . .. ... :unsure: They may have caught her trying to sign "penis" or "vagina" when she was first crowned, and decided to take hostile action. . . . . ...... . .

:rolleyes::lol:

If I am reading this right, she is quoting her friend, jewelchic.

BTW........do you think all her wacky videos are clues?

Hmmm......... .. she lives in the jungle. ..... (Pardon me, the "Mighty Jungle"). . . ...with sleeping lions... ... . . .

LLAMA LADY IS JANE GOODALL!!!

.....no, wait, that would have to be "the baboon sleeps tonight".... . . . . . . .

:rolleyes::lol:

The Beav is very very angry. Not only has the emotiquota been cut in half BUT she went to the store to get supplies to make said cookies and came home with a can of squash. Would YOU eat squash chocolate chip cookies? :greengaggingguyemoticon:

What kind of squash? Pumpkins are related to squash so it actually might turn out pretty darn good Bevvy :)

Thanks all................

going to lay on the heating pad......chiro finally gave me permission if i turned it off when I first use it after it heats up. My tummy has been hurting for 2 days non stop and todays........TO DO LIST.......SURE DIDN'T HELP.

Judy :(

Sorry about your tummy, hope laying on the heating pad helps. Lots 'o' love to ya :wub:

Bev--I could have sworn that I've read that a lot of canned pumpkin is actually squash. Don't ask me where, but I know I heard that before.

I think Julie's right, that they would probably come out good. The recipe only uses a cup, and there are lots of spices and other ingredients. I think what it adds most is moisture.

Lisa (curly)--right on! about B. Sherman!! :D

Gotta tell ya, I've interchanged squash, pumpkin and sweet potato in a lot of recipes, with great success. In fact, my sweet potato pie is essentially the same recipe as pumpkin pie, and everyone likes it much better. Surprisingly, better on my blood sugar level, too......

Need a little sweet potato emoticon. .. .....

I could use ten of 'em ....... . . . .. .. -_-^_^:mellow:

I like sweet potato pie better than pumpkin. I got into it when we lived in Georgia. :)

What's a twinkie?? :unsure: ....and do we HAVE to wear rubber gloves???

A person remains conscious for eight seconds after being decapitated.

So you KNOW when your head starts to roll? In that case, eight seconds it a VERY LONG TIME.

Good Morning, all!

I have never in my entire life eaten a Twinkie. Dunno if one can be purchased here. . .. I'm sure they are in the Canadian market. What, no twinkies across the Pond, Nik? Well, you've now got a recipe courtesy of Purple. . .ya can see what y'all have been missing. .. . .... <_<:lol:

I still feel an uneasy connection with the timing of our Erica's coronation (all of the emoticon use, and at the end, "number of emoticons leftover - - 3 :rolleyes:B):lol: ) and this sudden, sweeping reduction in our Official Emotiquota.. . ....

Do emoticons have a best before date?? Perhaps we were not using twenty per post, and many emoticons were past expiry and had to be destroyed. . .. .....are they recyclable?

Yes, this could be Skaought's way of keeping things green - - the pressure is certainly on all business owners. He needs to keep an enviornmentally friendly website, and frugal use of emoticons perhaps is the first step. . . . ..

:huh:

:lol:

Mygawd, what's next. ..... ...

Limiting our use of coloUr?? Size? fancy tricks ??

Probably something along the line of ......''I'm having a really crap day and OMG!!!!, b@#$%$#%!!!..he's just cut me 'ead 'orf ''

Yeah, t'would be something very like this, I imagine. . . ...

A few days ago I got a microwave from freecycle. My microwave is from the 80's, has no turntable, is 500 watts (no brownie-in-a-cup for me) and you set the time and temp by turning dials.

So I go pick up the microwave, and it's evening and it's dark so I leave it in my truck thinking I'll deal with the switch on the weekend. Last night I get home and Roomie has taken away the old and brought in the new. Not only does it have buttons and things, and a turntable, it's a convection oven!! I'm so excited!!

:ph34r:umm, what do you do with a convection oven?? :ph34r:

I think you are quite right. I suspect somebody lurking has complained......."They are just having too much fun over there <_< ........cut their emoticons in half!"

......or perhaps there were budget cutbacks and the emoticon police were laid off. :P.....no wait.....reducing emoticons will only put them into overtime.......how many times will we get busted, now?

Seriously, though.........what pupose does it serve to cut back on emoticons? Does it benefit the forum in some way?

Oh PeOter!!!!!

Mygawd!! You guys! You have absolutely NEVER made, nor tasted, such delicious baked or roasted stuff until you use the convection setting. . . .I could not believe how incredible my roasted chicken/beef tasted when I first tried convection cooking. And muffins! OMG....Cakes! Everything is SOOOOO moist. . . . I do all of our Thanksgiving/Christmas turkeys in convection -- unbelievable the difference!

Dunno why there is such a difference. . . .the convection setting uses a fan, and perhaps the heat is distributed more evenly. Dunno, and don't care. I just was SO amazed when I started tasting the dinners I was preparing this way.

It's easy to change the setting to convection, at least on my stove - - I just turn a dial to "convection", and there you go.

Things also cook quicker, so you must be aware of that, and I always have the temperature 25 degrees lower than in regular roasting or baking.

You need to try it....you'll be amazed! :)

Hey! I've only used ONE emoticon so far, and ALL that text! Good fer me, doing what I can for the Forum Enviornment. . . . :rolleyes:

What awful things have we done as kids (or adults :ph34r: ) on Hallowe'en?

Hmmm.. . . .no egging or shaving creaming houses in my past. . .. ... ..

I was probably about thirteen, just at the age where you're getting a little old for trick or treating, and likely getting some dirty stares and/or doors in the face when you go knocking for candy. Me and three of my friends fanned out late on Hallowe'en night, after most of the kids had trick or treated, and started taking all the pumpkins from the porches around the neighboUrhood.

We quickly ran and placed them on Old Mr. Hudson's front porch (that horrid old codger that every neighbourhood has, who screams at you when you walk on his lawn, takes your frisbees and baseballs into his house and never gives them back. . . we all have had a Mr. Hudson in our childhood).

Well, by ten o'clock, there must have been 60 big pumpkins piled all across his porch. . . he couldn't open his door, I am sure. It looked SOOOOOO heelarryus. .. . .and the old phart deserved it. :lol::lol:

Hope he isn't still around, 99 years old and recently diagnosed with celiac, checking out forums. . . .. . . .... :ph34r::unsure:

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it.  Gluten is  the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part.  Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate  ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.   Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat, and bran is the protective covering of the kernel.   Little to no gluten there.   Large amounts of lectins are in wheat germ and can cause digestive upsets, but not enough Gluten to provoke antibody production in the small intestines. Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. 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.
