Sorry, sorry! I was caught up making tonight's dinner, which was crispy coconut chicken with maple mashed sweet potatos. I'm sure you're not interested in that....

Um HELL YES I wanna hear about this!!!!!!!!!! :o

the beef stuff DID sound like a yummy, juicy dip!!!! I want that too.

Alas, no good food here, and a sub-par fuzzy. <_< Decided to have a cocktail whilst making a necklace.....I just hate to see the fuzzies come to an end. But it appears they have, with these bad oranges.

HARRUMPHFFFFFF

"Let's add curtains! And a doorbell! When you ring the doorbell, the curtains will open! And we made it horizontal, but it started to talk, so we went vertical...."

:lol: :lol: wackl!

SILLS - look at this sweet old dog!!!!!!!! :wub:

A long day here, and rain is on the way overnight has arrived. Curtains and a doorbell? :lol:

So if you girls have The Vagina Monologues, what is there for us pholks with Y chromosomes? Perhaps one of us suitably equipped should pen something and call it The Penis Soliloquies? To pee, or not to pee, that is the question. ;)

Elisabeth Hasselbeck is on Larry King Live on CNN in minutes, talking about her book and her celiac disease. I shall be watching.

I was kind of addicted to 'em for a while, but gave 'em up for Lent! :lol:

Don't Queens have "peepul" to do these things? Her Majesty should not be subjected to such trivia and should not just be popping out for coffee. There is responsibilties for royalty here.

One was more'n enough for moi, thanks. Coulda gone me whole life NEVER KNOWING what that experience was all about...

"Ok, now insert the probe" What?? ME???? Why do I have to insert it?

Minutes later..."Ok, now hold it in place while I go get the doctor." WIH???

The doctor came in and said "Well you were really left holding the bag, weren't you?" :ph34r::angry:

Yes, Neroli, I agree. I should have staff :lol::lol::lol:

Was in visiting my dad last night, and while I sat chatting with him, a nurse came in and said they were going to move him downstairs for a CT scan AND an ultrasound.

Damn.. . . . next time I will be sure to have a small container of sparkles in me purse.

Sorry yer dad is still hospitalized :(

But, um, what exactly is he having ultrasounded? Perhaps a nice highlight would do the trick.

Anyone who is a real and genuinely decent person will see beyond the exterior to the real, wonderful person you are inside.

Hear, Hear!! Well said :)

Hey Bunnyrabbitt! I was on steroids just once. Doc thought it would help tendonitis (I was having problems with lots of inflammation in lots of places

Ditto. Been there.

makes me OUT OF MY MIND!!!!!!!! and - please note the slight mullet factor - - actual Queen's shorter hair, with Mimmsy's hair hanging beneath - I LURVES IT!!!!!!!!!

Mimms - hope yer day today is better than yesterday, and all inconveniences are but a memory.......

Suze!! You noticed the hair!!! I was hoping noone thought that was really my hair. The sides and bottom are, but the mullet phlip is definitely Lizzie's.

Maybe I'll put the original pic on my page thingy (too tired to think of what it's called.)

No more 'inconveniences' today, thanks :) Just feel like I'm in a constant state of egg production--ovary trouble, ladies. Doc said I've got cyst on the right that is "dangling like a grape". I know it's really common and all that, so not too worried about it. It's just rather uncomfortable.

Please don't send me to the tower BUT I forgot to congratulate our new queen :unsure:

...and may I say Ma'am,.... you're looking GOOD in yer av !!! ;):lol:

That's Queen Mum, to you, whelp. Now off wid 'er 'ead :D

:lol: TransV Invasion... . ..... This sounds like a new roller coaster ride at the Ex.....or the code name for the latest offensive in Afghanistan.. . . ...... . ..or the media tag for a potential pandemic . .. . . ...or the racehorse who came in third at the Derby. . ...

...Or an all-girl band!

Gah! :lol::lol::lol:

Sounds like a bad B-film.

but the LOOKS thing - obsession with appearance

BUT ENOUGH OF THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and my boss says, "are you ovulating or something?"

:lol: :lol:

Well, my two cents (for what it's worth) is that we are enculturated this way, love.

But, as James Blunt would say, "You're beautiful, it's true."

I always share my cycles chart with me boss, doesn't everyone?

Pseuzhee!!.... see above AND I don't think you are losing yer looks AT ALL, but EVEN if you were a wizened old hag ;) (WHICH YOU ARE NOT!!!!!!) your personality would win everyone over!!!!.....so there!!

:lol::lol::lol:

Yeah, so there <<sticks tongue out>>

Nik--even wif sparkles, you don't want one o' those

Trust her, she speaks da troof <_<

I remember something very like this, as well, Pahtee..... . ..a large microphony thing. Hell, did they expect to get a song outta me from there?? :lol:

Like Lady Chatterly!!! :lol:

Maybe it's super powered to listen to space (but all they get is white noise) :blink:

Perhaps just a series of stage-ready soliloquoys or .. . .let's call 'em monologues. :P

<always wondered how well one could enunciate>

he-w-o-o. can yoo heah meee oud dere? he-w-o-o?

Soliloquies--makes it sound lurvely. If mine could talk right now I think it would be saying, "Oh no you din't :ph34r: "

but there's always tomorrow, when I plan to dye it myself, hence creating another chance for ruination.

<_<

Susie's hair-lacious folliclefollies :rolleyes::lol:

Sorry, sorry! I was caught up making tonight's dinner, which was crispy coconut chicken with maple mashed sweet potatos. I'm sure you're not interested in that....

So the beef stuff! Two pounds o beef, huge pile of diced onion, 3 ripe avocados (woulda been 4 but #4 bit the dust) and a big scoop of sour cream. Brown beef and onion, I put the onion in first for a while with butter so it would be nice and sweet and squishy. Browned up the beef w/ the onion, added garlic powder, salt, pepper, cumin. Smushed the avocados and mixed in sour cream, garlic powder & lemon juice. Which makes a fabulous veggie dip by its lonesome, then stirred into the beef stuff (did NOT drain beef, left the juice) and made mushy beef stuff A La Bunnie! It was FREAKIN DELICIOUS. Perfect with salty corn chips, and also very good cold the next day. Only thing I don't like about cold beef dips is the beef gets kinda tough and hurts my teeth, so I heated it up a bit for lunch. Just as good the next day, the avocado didn't turn at all. Would be perfect with cheesy refried beans & rice, but ran out of time.

I'm off to bed! I get up at 4:30..... yawn...... :blink:

You're hired! I now proclaimeth thee royal kitchen wench.

When we saw Robin Williams he did a bit about genitalia and how they were 'built' by committee.

No surgery. In fact, as is always the case for me, the doc just left me hangin' there. Why do they do that? Is it me, or is just bad show to tell someone they have a cyst and then say, "You're all set. You can see the girls at the front desk for your co-pay." 'Er sumpfin.

well it was almost that good.

I had to quickly grab the Skittle Skat, and mis-stepped onto some pruned stuff, and there was this extremely savage thorny rose stalk..... a big thorn went into the bottom of me foot (blood, there was) and, I lost my footing, and fell heavily into the whole rose bush :blink:

severe arm scraping and thorn-stabbing and........a gouge into me wee baby toe :huh:

there was blood :lol:

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it.  Gluten is  the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part.  Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate  ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.   Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat, and bran is the protective covering of the kernel.   Little to no gluten there.   Large amounts of lectins are in wheat germ and can cause digestive upsets, but not enough Gluten to provoke antibody production in the small intestines. Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.
