Holy crap, I was absolutely NOT meant to be at that tournament. . . . .the final game also ended in a shootout, and the Wildcats ended up losing it (i.e., Sophie let a goal in, the other goalie did not......SO thankful I was not there to see Sophie's phace after that heartbreaker). So, silver medal!! :):)

Must get a pic of her in full goalie gear. . .. ..she looks like a complete stranger, some big creature I've never seen before. . ... :lol:

Go Sophie!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D

Susie- I'm so sorry that your neck is out- OUCH! Hope you feel better soon. LOVE yer avatar :wub: :wub: :wub:

They TOTALLY snowed me!!

I was expecting cupcakes and coffee every morning, foot massages, someone to clean the catbox.

Harumph!!

Ba ha ha -YEAH RIGHT!

Okay, forget about the croutons for a moment. They're cooling in the kitchen.

I am so disappointed. The phantastic phullest moon of the year is tonight, the sun set forty minutes ago, and it is OVERCAST!. :angry: :angry: :angry:

Phooey.

Same here- I wanna seeeeeeeee itttttttt!

They turned out pretty well, but the garlic isn't as strong as we had hoped for. We think we know how to fix that next time. The true proof will be in the salad at dinner in a little while.

Sadly, I am not getting mooned, but Emily is. :D

Pieter- Yer croutons look yummers!!!!! I usually make them out of leftover bread. Remarkably easy and nothing like homemade croutons (weneedayumemoticon).

I've got that nasty cold that's been going around and lasting for like 2 weeks......it started 5 days ago. Me nose is trying to run away it's so red. Boogers! But I think me new drug is working (Lyme) I feel good things happening and bad things dying :D

Took Angus to the beach yesterday to run around with Kurt's friend's two Bernese Mtn Dogs. I was in heaven. Oh yeah, Angus liked it too :lol: :lol: And went out to dinner last night at PF Changs's (took my dad for his New Year's Chinese food a week too late) Got to see the goonies though :wub::D They warm me heart everytime.

Good evening! :)

I have psome psilly thoughts for Psunday evening.

Why do we drive on a parkway, and park on a driveway? :huh:

Why do people talk about their "PIN number" for the "ATM machine"? Don't they know what the initials stand for? And, "tuna fish," come on people. :huh:

What was the greatest thing before sliced bread? :o

And who is the psilliest of the psillies? Why, Emily. She is the top contributor to this thread, with over 3,300 posts. Over 80% of her total posts on the board are here. Em, you need to get out more often.

And, I wondered, where are the psillies, anyway.

The one farthest North is Nikki, with Jess in second place.

The one farthest East is also Nikki, with Bev in second place.

The one farthest South is Momma Goose. Sarah is next, but she hasn't been around much, so give an honoUrary second to Susie.

The one farthest West is Jess, with Tom in second place.

Nikki won twice. Hmmm.

And, yes, indeed, Jess is farther north than either Emily or me. She is about four degrees of latitude north of Markham, and two degrees north of Ottawa.

Okay, I need to get a life. :blink:

It is difficult to stay pserious in other threads.. . . . . . ....things often just strike me as so phunneee, hence I tend to scoot away before I get warned, or embarrass myself....

I went back to the start of the thread, and read forward, while making marks on a sheet of paper as to who was posting. I used a lot of paper, and it took a looooong time. Not!

In the index, where you can see the thread name, the number of views, and the number of replies, click on the number of replies. A window will open showing the post counts by member for that topic in descending order.

OMG! You can do this for any thread, and it can be revealing for a thread with a very large number of posts. ;)

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a...

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      @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...

I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

      @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!
