Only Jess. . . . . ...... . :lol:

Well, the mechanic at the dealership apparently took the audio fuse out of the panel (just as we had done to make sure it simply hadn't blown), and stuck it back in.....and the radio worked.

:huh:

But also :):)

As it cost nothing.

Patti, I didn't post the chocolate fudge recipe. I used the recipe off the marshmallow cream jar except I used coconut milk for the milk, and a mix of dark chocolate and unsweetened chocolate for the flavor (about half of each). I thought it turned out more 'adult' (less sweet) than regular fudge.

:blink:

Ok....please tell me it's the Fantasy Fudge Recipe on the Kraft Marshmallow Cream, cause that's the kind I have. :lol: The mix of dark and unsweetened chocolate was the perfect taste (according to him). I'm gonna make it with almond milk--that should work--you think?

I'm sure that's what I used. How many companies make marshmallow cream with a recipe on it?

I was planning on retrying it with almond milk, but all my chocolate had milk in it anyway, so I didn't.

I'm sure it will work, it just takes longer to get to 238 degrees. You might also cut the butter in half, and add that much more volume in milk (to account for the protein in butter that isn't in any of the substitutes).

Thanks again for all the birthday wishes Psillies :) We went out for dinner tonight and I had a Caesar Salad and Baked Salmon with Rice Pilaf. Peter had a Steak and Baker. No dessert for either of us as neither of us needed it. It's been a good day and I don't feel any older than I did yesterday :lol:

Mornin', gang!

Here, too! Cold and crisp. Just picked up the Ripper a new pair o' high-tech snowshoes, a great post-Christmas deal. So great, in fact, that I was contemplating getting a pair for DD, but the act of snowshoeing is apparently excruciatingly uncool. Who'd 'a thunk? Thank gawd I now have a teenaged daughter who can keep me abreast of such social truths. Cross-country skiing? Cool. Ski-boarding? UBER-cool. Snowshoes are.....well........kinda dumb-looking, one supposes .. . .... . ....

Don't get it. Skis look dumber.

The cats jumped for joy as at last they finally had some fish today instead of Turkey!!!! :D

Bloomin' cold here, frosty, clear and the poor boiler really is struggling now <must get on to them Mon>

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after eating them. If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.

      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      After the birth of my daughter nearly 6 years ago, my stools changed. They became thin if they happened to be solid (which was rare) but most of the time it was Bristol #6 (very loose and 6-8x a day). I was on various medications and put it down to that. A few years later I went on this strict "fruit and meat" diet where I just ate meat, fruit, and squash...

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      After the birth of my daughter nearly 6 years ago, my stools changed. They became thin if they happened to be solid (which was rare) but most of the time it was Bristol #6 (very loose and 6-8x a day). I was on various medications and put it down to that. A few years later I went on this strict "fruit and meat" diet where I just ate meat, fruit, and squash vegetables. I noticed my stools were suddenly formed, if a bit narrow. I knew then that the diarrhea was probably food related not medication related. I tried following the fodmap diet but honestly it was just too complicated, I just lived with pooping 8x a day and wondering how I'd ever get and keep a job once my children were in school.  This past December I got my yearly bloodwork and my triglycerides were high. I looked into Dr. William Davis (wheat belly author) and he recommended going off wheat and other grains. This is the first time in my life I was reading labels to make sure there was no wheat. Within 2 weeks, not only were my stools formed and firm but I was only pooping twice a day, beautiful formed Bristol #4.  Dr. Davis allows some legumes, so I went ahead and added red lentils and beans. Nervous that the diarrhea would come back if I had IBS-D. Not only did it not come back, it just made my stools even bigger and beautiful. Still formed just with a lot more width and bulk. I've also been eating a lot of plant food like tofu, mushrooms, bell peppers, hummus etc which I thought was the cause of my diarrhea before and still, my stools are formed. In January I ran a genetics test because I knew you had to have the genes for celiac. The report came back with  DQ 2.2 plus other markers that I guess are necessary in order for it to be possible to have celiac. Apparently DQ 2.2 is the "rarer" kind but based on my report it's genetically possible for me to have celiac.  I know the next step is to bring gluten back so I can get testing but I am just not wanting to do that. After suffering with diarrhea for years I can't bring myself to do it right now. So that is where I am!
