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................

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 have many of those same CMP irregularities from time to time, with the exception that my potassium is always normal. What I can tell you is that it is normal for everything not to be normal when you get a CMP done. I used to get a CBC and CMP done annually and there were always some things out of spec. Docs don't get excited about it for the most part. It depends on the particular parameter (some are more important than others) and it depends on how far out of range it is. Docs also look for trends over time as opposed to isolated snapshots of this or that being out of spec at any given time. Our body chemistry is a dynamic entity.

      Not sure what you mean by "soy being like gluten". Soy does not cause a celiac reaction. However, soy is one of the foods that many celiacs don't tolerate well for other reasons. Eggs, corn and dairy are also on that list of foods that many of those with celiac disease seem to be sensitive to. But that doesn't mean that all celiacs are sensitive to any one of them or all of them. It just means it's common. You may not have a problem with soy at all. Celiac disease is not a food allergy. It is an autoimmune response to the ingestion of gluten that creates inflammation in the small bowel lining that, over time, damages that lining.

      Hey all  Has anyone on here experienced any of the following on their basic metabolic panel results ? This is what mine is currently flagging : - low sodium  - nearly too low potassium - nearly too low chloride - high CO2  - low anion gap  This is now after being nearly gluten-free for over a year (although I admit I make mistakes sometimes and pay dearly for it). My TtG went down to undetectable. I was so sensitive to so many foods I am now avoiding meat dairy and don’t eat a lot of cooked food in general (raw veggies, white rice, avocados and boiled eggs are my usual go-to meal that doesn’t make me sick). But my abdomen still hurts, i have a range of other symptoms too (headaches that last for days before letting up, fatigue, joint pain, bladder pain). Anyway im hoping my urologist (that’s now the latest specialist I’ve seen on account of the bladder pain and cloudy urine after eating certain foods) will help me with this since he ordered this metabolic panel. But I’m bouncing around a lot between specialists and still not sure what’s wrong. Also went back to the GI doctor and she thought maybe the celiac is just not healed or I have something else going on in the colon and I should have that looked at too. I’m still anemic too BTW. And I’m taking sooo may vitamins daily.

      I know I haven't been tested but self diagnosed that by avoiding gluten the past 7 months I feel so much better. I have followed how to eat and avoid gluten and have been good about hidden gluten in products, how to prep gluten-free and flours to use to bake gluten-free and have been very successful. It has been a learning curve but once you get the hang of it and more aware you realize how many places are gluten-free and contamination free practices etc. One thing I have read is how soy is like gluten. How would one know if soy affects you? I have eaten gluten free hershey reeses that say gluten free etc some other snacks say gluten free but contain soy and I dont get sick or soy yogurt no issues. Is there adifference in soys?

      Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold.  Our bodies have difficulty absorbing and utilizing it.  Only 30% is absorbed and less can be utilized.   There's some question as to how well multivitamins dissolve in the digestive tract.  You can test this at home.  YouTube has instructional videos.   Talk to your nutritionist about adding a B Complex.  The B vitamins are water soluble, so any excess is easily excreted if not needed.  Consider adding additional Thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) or thiamine hydrochloride.   Thiamine is needed to help control electrolytes.  Without sufficient thiamine, the kidneys loose electrolytes easily resulting in low sodium and chloride.   We need extra thiamine when we're emotionally stressed, physically ill, and when we exercise regularly, are an athlete, or do physical labor outdoors, and in hot weather.  Your return to activities and athletics may have depleted your thiamine and other B vitamins to a point symptoms are appearing.   The deficiency symptoms of B vitamins overlap, and can be pretty vague, or easily written off as due to something else like being tired after a busy day.  The symptoms you listed are the same as early B vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can appear in as little as three days.  I recognize the symptoms as those I had when I was deficient.  It can get much worse. "My symptoms are as follows: Dizziness, lightheaded, headaches (mostly sinus), jaw/neck pain, severe tinnitus, joint stiffness, fatigue, irregular heart rate, post exercise muscle fatigue and soreness, brain fog, insomnia.  Generally feeling unwell." I took a B 50 Complex twice a day and extra thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine and TTFD.  I currently take the Ex Plus supplement used in this study which shows B vitamins, especially Thiamine B 1, Riboflavin B2, Pyridoxine B 6, and B12 Cobalamine are very helpful.   A functional evaluation of anti-fatigue and exercise performance improvement following vitamin B complex supplementation in healthy humans, a randomized double-blind trial https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10542023/
