The term refers to an historic Spanish coin worth 8 reales. They were widely used around the time Spain was trying to take over the New World.

Yes... . .. .. . I was hoping a young Spanish revolutionary was perhaps strolling through my yard and clandestinely slipped a small stash of such currency under the cover of said ho'tub, thinking it a grand hiding spot from the French... . .or English. . ... . ... .Vikings? Who in HELL were the Spaniards battling, anyways? :lol::rolleyes:

Me, too.....love the 6am sun shining on me as I fill my first insulin injection. Doing this in the winter darkness really does make it all the more heinous .. . . .. <_<B)

Goooood Sunday Morning, Psillies!

I shall chance it right now and go for a run avec my big poodles.....rain is not happening yet, but will be any time now, all through the day..... . ..much needed, but I hate getting soaked when it is still only +5, and the dogs become a mess. . . . ..

What is this about 70 cm of snow in parts of Kansas?? That 2 1/2 FEET!! :o

I've been wondering if having a cat sleep on your pants counts as ironing....

Gah! For me, yes....by the time I've gone over my lap a hundred times with the lint/hair brush, it is certainly considered ironed. . . ........ :rolleyes:

Mornin Psillies! Another drippy, dreary day here! I worked outside in it all day yesterday....at least it wasn't freezing cold...or snowing! Read about the midwest and all of that snow and power-outages. How horrid! Pah-tay, you didn't get any of the storm on the fringes..did you? I heard the upper part of Texas was getting some nasty stuff! So glad it's not here :P

No ho'tub surprises.....how disappointing!

Psuessle.....I've been avoiding getting on the computer at night, maybe I should! Most nights I'm awake many times....tossing and turning, determined to go back to sleep. It's such a bummer :( Hope yer pheelin better today.

Every home should have at least one warm ironing cat! Energy efficient! Works all by itself!

I keep phorgetting what I meant to say....so I'll skip it for now! Hope everyone is having a most wonde :) rous day!

Light rain at the moment, but for a while it was just throwing it down. Light rain is expected to continue into the early evening.

Using a cat instead of an iron has merit. It takes less effort, and in my line of work if you have cat fur on your clothes it is not really out of place. :rolleyes:

Cat iron it is! By popular consensus. If you travel on a mode of transportation that has a huge crowd moving in unison portion (like getting off the ferry), the cat hairs on your clothing tend to redistribute themselves to all your companions. :ph34r::P

Storms all well to the north of us--it's been a beautiful, clear, cool weekend! B) Mark's working pretty much round the clock (coming home at 11, going back at 6) to get the company moved into the new facility by Tuesday. Daunting, but they feel they'll pull it off. :) Hopefully after that's all done, things will get back to normal. Whatever that is :lol:

Meanwhile, I'm bored to death......going grocery shopping later. Must get some of the "new, improved" Enjoy Life Granola people are saying good things about.

It's me phirst time driving out alone here--keep yer phingers crossed I don't get lost, er sumphin :P

Phunny thing--I've read about the Enjoy Life granola and how they've improved the recipe to good reviews here. The HEB here is a really big grocery store with a very decent gluten-free section. The EL granola was almost sold out! :P I got one of the last 3 bags on the shelf. I almost got 2, but I don't know if I'm gonna like it.

They were fully stocked on everything else in the dept, except this. :rolleyes: Good new travels fast :D

Smackl has gotten a hair cut!!!! He wanted a little off the back . . . :lol: . . . he got more taken off than he wanted but it has a "style" now . . . well . . . sorta . . . if he were to actually brush it or sumptin.

Tis snowing at the moment so of course we decided that we must go buy our (dogwood) tree today. I'm going cheapo and buying from Lowe's instead of a nursery and they don't carry many big (I sooooo use that term loosely) ones (OK, I saw two) so I thought we better get it now or it won't be there when we come back.

What the crock you guys fixin' for supper tonight?? We're havin' beef and gravy, mashed taters, some kinda veggie TBD and trying BRM corn bread for the first time.

Did I ever tell you guys I lived in Texas (Abilene) for about 6 months? . . . mighty nice folks down in them there parts.

Hi Jan-it!! :D Missed you!

Are you gonna post a picture of The Smackster's new 'do?

Cool that you lived in Texas--I have to say that everyone we've met here so far have been very nice :) Dinner.....it all depends if Mark is going to be home. If not, then leftover pasta. If he makes it home for dinner, I think sirloin tips/onions, mashed potatoes and a veggie.

I bought a box of GFP corn bread mix this morning--could make that too.....

hmmmm......dinner....

Last night I cooked a big chunk of beef (all night). Took it out this morning and took off the fat from the liquid (I cooked it in a bit a red wine - what else?).

A little while ago I threw some sweet taters, red bell peppers, pearl onions, garlic, and a can of tomatoes in to the broth. Figured I'd cook those up for a while, chuck the juice, and have a lovely bowl of veggies.

Jess! Don't chuck that juice! Pour it into a big wineglass and sip away....c'mon, ya don't throw wine sauce/broth out!. . . . ...

:lol:

Ahhhh, dinner.. . .. . . . .tonight will be chicken nachos, wif the leftover meat from the big, fat bird I cooked last night. Nice big salad.....we're set. Just gotta get Jack on the cheese grater. When he does this job, it is quite amazing how the big brick of cheddar goes down to almost nothing, and there is not a whole lot of grated cheese resulting. . . . ... <_<:rolleyes:

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      @catnapt, Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract. They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows. Even beans have lectins. You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract. You may want to allow your digestive tract...

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg). Both are gluten free and free of other allergens. I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25". It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.

      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding. I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose ...

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!
