Hi Judy!!! Good to see you!!! Welcome back to the reality of winter!!! CurlyLisa is the kween. Probably not worth going back to read the massive amounts of shopping lists and music lyrics. If you see something you don't remember just ask and we'll give you a much quicker rundown than trying to go back into the vortex to find it.

Welcome back to the Sillie, Judith B) Too bad there's not a search function fer CurlyLisa's recaps. That would get you up to date in a jiffy :lol:

I know ya'll are on the edge of yer seats wondering about me bread :P This is what I did--mixed up the batter as usual, and in a separate bowl mixed sugar, cinnamon and a wee bit of Smart Balance till it was like little crumbs. Then (here's the genius) I spread a third of the batter into the pan, topped it wif half the topping and repeated ending wif the bread batter.

It's in the oven proofing now :rolleyes:

Tomorrow, in preperation fer me haircut I have to wash and let it dry naturally wif no product at all (v scary). What I completely phorgot was that I have a doctor's appt first thing in the morning. :huh: So I have to go there looking like that :lol:

Hi, Jooooodeee!! back to the Land of Unforgiving Wintah. . . . ....hope you are not getting the storm that we have happening.

Leeeeeesar! Recap fer Joodith, s'il te plait. . .. . . .

What I completely phorgot was that I have a doctor's appt first thing in the morning. So I have to go there looking like that :lol:

OMG, Patteee.. . . . get ready for alarms going off, security swooping down and around you, crowds frantically parting. . . . . . ... :lol:

Perhaps your doc's receptionist will simply stare long and carefully at you, eyes widened, and say, "Oh, Patti. . . . .....I'm glad you're here to see him"......

:lol:

Lawyer appointment was productive, but now I have had to relive the whole ordeal and shall spend the rest of the afternoon with a sick, weak feeling permeating my whole body. For the first time probably ever, I found myself home at 2 pm, considering having a glass of wine. Or two.

But nope. Too much shovelling, cleaning, dog-walkin' to do! (A good thing, fer sure). . . . .

10 freakin inches!!!!.......of snaugh

Well, I suited up and headed out wif me two useless chidlens armed wif shovels . . . the whining commenced immediately and no it twas not from me. After about 5 minutes I gave up and we walked to my friend's house (about 5 houses down) which in itself was no small feat. . . and borrowed their snow blower. OMG!!!! I would gladly turn over my first born (if he was remotely worth anything) in appreciation. Instead I shall send down a bottle of me favourite wine.

I'm hating my husband's job at the moment . . . he just called to say he's been scheduled to attend a meeting from 6 to 7:30pm . . . who in hell schedules a meeting then??? . . . and just so you know, this is NOT a manufacturing facility . . . or a hospital . . . there is NO second shift.

This Uncle Ray-er was too good NOT to post on the thread.

Yesterday I had a flat tire on the interstate. So I ease my car over to the shoulder of the road, carefully get out of the car and open the trunk. I took out 2 cardboard men, unfolded them and stood them at the rear of my car facing oncoming traffic.

They look so lifelike you wouldn't believe! They are in trench coats exposing their nude bodies and private parts to the approaching drivers.

But to my surprise, cars start slowing down looking at my lifelike men.

And of course, traffic starts backing up. Everybody is tooting their horns

and waving like crazy.

It wasn't long before a state trooper pulls up behind me. He gets out of his car and starts walking towards me. I could tell he was not a happy camper! ''What's going on here?"

"My car has a flat tire," I said calmly.

"'Well, what the heck are those obscene cardboard men doing here by the

road?"

I couldn't believe that he didn't know. So I told him, "Helloooooo, those

are my emergency flashers!"

Good luck with your meeting today, Em. They do owe her--what a thing to have to go through, especially for a child. I'll be sending good, positive thoughts to you and Will. :)

Alright- so if the ice that fell all morning was not enough than it turned to rain and slushed things up.....tonight the temp is going to dip to 24....and then everything will be iced over again! I can't wait till spring till we get a driveway put in...the parking on street scares me during the winter....

Frizzbomb is right! I did a dry run wif it today since I didn't have to go out. I swear, I have no idea how they are going to accomplish this. :lol: I wish I could have Mark film it so you guys could watch :P

The cinnamon bread was out of this world! We each had a slice whilst still warm, and as soon as it's cool I'm slicing and freezing the rest. Don't trust meselph to have it sit out B) Tastes like that cinnamon bread that Joisey diners put out on the table--evil, yummy stuff. :P

What a freakin lou-say winter <raspberryphace>

I was reading one of those random magazines left in the lunchroom. You know, the kind that no one would admit they actually buy...

Anyway, it was a holiday addition, and they were doing before/after decorating shots. They showed an entryway that looked fabulous in the after shot....and i thought, a little darker.....so I started reading.

They painted the woodwork, changed the pictures, recovered the bench and hung a new chandelier, before hanging swags and wreaths on the railing.

So I started wondering, how many of you totally remodel your rooms for each holiday?

What? Did you say REMODEL for a HOLIDAY? Why on earth would someone do that? Unless of course they are Much More Soshul than *I* am (almost anybody is :P ). AND of course....it requires a lot more money than I have......but then again if I were philthy ritch, I can think of things I'd much rather do with munney :lol:

      Based on what you've described, it is absolutely crucial that you pursue further medical exams for Celiac Disease and related conditions with a gastroenterologist. Your symptoms—especially the worsening fatigue, loss of muscle mass, neurological symptoms like migraines, and palpitations, coupled with being underweight—are significant red flags that extend beyond typical IBS. The negative home test is not reliable, particularly given your concern about sample contamination and the fact that you were likely not consuming sufficient gluten at the time for the test to be accurate, which is a common issue. While probiotics like Bifidobacterium Infantis can support gut health, they cannot resolve an autoimmune response to gluten or heal intestinal damage caused by Celiac Disease. Your declining blood test results, even if still "in range," further indicate a trend that needs a doctor's investigation. Please do not hesitate to seek a specialist; a formal diagnosis is the first step toward getting the correct treatment, allowing your body to heal, and finally addressing your weight and overall health concerns. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      I would only add that cross contamination with wheat may still be a possibility, so it's still best to seek out buckwheat that is labeled "gluten-free."

      Hello, I've been diagnosed with IBS since I was little. I’ve visited many doctors because my intestines have always been very reactive to food. I have chronic swelling, and I struggle to gain weight. This year has been worse than others: I started noticing fatigue, loss of muscle mass, and many digestive problems, especially after consuming products with gluten. My doctor suggested that this might be due to some imbalance of gut bacteria, so I started taking Bifidobacterium Infantis supplements. However, my symptoms have been getting worse every day. I experience nausea, frequent abdominal pain, migraines, and palpitations after eating. I had these symptoms before, but now they are more intense. I thought I might have Non-celiac gluten sensitivity or Celiac Disease, so I took a home test for Celiac, and it came out negative (though there may have been an error—I was nervous and accidentally contaminated the sample with air bubbles). Based on your experiences, should I pursue further medical exams for Celiac? I’m worried about being underweight and about my blood test results, which, even if still within normal ranges, have been declining each year.

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..
