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)

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:

      Gluten-Free Diet Linked to Reduced Inflammation and Improved Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis (+Video)

      IBS-D vs Celiac

The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
