Yup, you got that right Peter. Either 12 or 11 hours ahead (can't remember which daylight savings does to us ;) )

GAH!!!.. I forgot you was down under!!!

Just making the Gluten Free Goddess chocolate cake for dessert, having gone to the berry farm and purchased fresh raspberries. There is cognac cream in the fridge :) We shall be having scallops (scollops) and shrimp(s) as they say here, for starters, then barbecued beef with fresh corn on the cob 'mongst other things, followed by a nice long walk on the beach. Then return for chocolate cake and to watch movies we have been waiting to see. We kept all the family safely locked away in the North Island this year ;) Weatherman is promising 80 degrees and no nasty sea "breezes"; sure hope he's right. So a nice relaxing day of feasting.

80 degrees!........ *sigh*

Bit of a headache this morning. I think the Baileys and Godiva liqueur were fine, but perhaps filling the glass the rest of the way with vodka was not so clever

but quite tasty... :ph34r:

And 'Snakes on a plane' came in the mail yesterday, so I've got my morning planned out. Coffee and Barca lounger.

That is really cool! :D

OMGawd, me house smells good....I made dressing/stuffing, and a mince and pumpkin pie this morning. I want to get the complicated stuff out of the way today. Had to make bread fer the stuffing last week--haven't been eating it in me quest to lower carbs.

That quest, of course, is going out the window the next couple of days :lol:

This is our first Christmas away from the boys--and wifout Allo :( We actually got Allo on Christmas Eve 1991--he was so tiny :wub: He always loved Christmas, too--we always figured it was his first real memory of us, opening gifts and having all that paper to play in. He had his own stocking and expected his gift :D Just like the other kids :P

But alas, Mark and I are making the best of it.....we're going to PF Changs tonight avec many glasses of wine and tomorrow we might go to the movies. Actually looking forward to the long weekend to get some of this house stuff done that we've been wanting to do since we moved in.

<Need to leap into a time machine, fast forward enough years so that DC has left home .....or we can legally kick him out at least :ph34r:<_< >

I think I stressed even more when my kids grew up and moved out............I thought once they grew up, no more worries.........pfffft! <_<

We have one more day of business, but today set a record.

Awesome!!

I've been away too long.....but I'm caught up now. Been having some psilly on FB...or is that facegook!!!! (Love it!)

Ahhhhh....how I long for 80 degrees and sea breezes....on Christmas day or on any ol' day. I'm so jealous! We got snowed in Saturday and Sunday last...even the post offices closed down. The parking lots and sidewalks are still a mess. Not because it was so very much (only 20 inches), but because that small amount is actually a huge amount for here, and they don't handle it like the North Country does. Shoulda moved further south! But it would have been too far from home. Hating the cold, hating the weather....am struggling to get out of the struggle.

Mostly I wanted to say to all of you

MERRY, MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!

Hugs all round and wishes for good health, contentment, peace and lots of moments of pure joy! For the New Year, I hope for all of you to feel that it's the best year you've ever had, each and every day.

Also wanted to thank all of you for the giggles, for allowing me to share in the good, the bad and the ugly. I'm so very grateful to have found psillyville and all of it's wonderful inhabitants!

'Till later...

Twas the morning of Christmas and over the lawn

The calls of the chickens were bringing the dawn

The hung-over neighbours were not pleased to hear

the raucous reminder that day will be here

The children were learning, with fudge covered hands,

white carpet was perfect to learn a handstand

I, with my 'puter, coffee in hand

greeted the psilles, in their wonderlands

when what to my wondering brain should appear?

A vision of joy in the coming new year

No losses will haunt us, no cars crumpled up

some house will be blessed with a kitty or pup

Our jobs will be better, our bosses sincere

giggles and laughter is all that we'll hear

So finish the eggnog (just a little more rum)

throw off the worry and throw off the glum

We carry each other through the good and the bad

the good is expanded, the bad, not so sad

A hug across countries; be merry I say!!

And peace to you all on this softest of days

Happy Boxing Day, all the psilly Commonwealthers!

I is soOoOoOoooOo.. . . ......

icon8.gificon8.gificon8.gif... . . . (((((sigh)))))).....

'Tis amazing that still, with all the food restrictions inherent in celiac and diabetes, one can overindulge like I have done. Low-suger, gluten-free foodstuffs that are amazingly packed with fat, alcohol, jet fuel.......all perfectly legal with both diseases -- they surrounded me yesterday, and continue to do so for the weekend.

I pheel VERY PHAT.

<_<

:rolleyes:

Hope yesterday was terrific for everyone. Today is the Ripper's THIRTEENTH birthday. He awoke this morning with his first zit, right inside his nostril. Good and bad: 'tis tough to get to, but not easily seen. I must relay that one of the first things Jack said as he was trying to see it in the mirror, and I stood behind him commenting on how fortuitous it was, having a first zit appear on the day of passage into teenage-hood, was "Whoa. .. . .. ......you need to tell the Psillies about this".....

:lol::lol:

Superb poem, Jyessssss! :lol:

I must say I love both of these! If I had to chose, J Jill would win but......

I got a beautiferous winter white wool coat from Kurt. So pretty I'm afraid to wear it!

      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.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind

      Thank you for your post, @nanny marley It is interesting what you say about 'It's OK not to sleep'. Worrying about sleeping only makes it much harder to sleep.  One of my relatives is an insomniac and I am sure that is part of the problem.  Whereas I once had a neighbour who, if she couldn't sleep, would simply get up again, make a cup of tea, read, do a sudoku or some other small task, and then go back to bed when she felt sleepy again.  I can't think it did her any harm - she lived  well into her nineties. Last week I decided to try a Floradix Magnesium supplement which seems to be helping me to sleep better.  It is a liquid magnesium supplement, so easy to take.  It is gluten free (unlike the Floradix iron supplement).  Might be worth a try.

      It could be a fructan intolerance? How do you do with dates?  https://www.dietvsdisease.org/sorry-your-gluten-sensitivity-is-actually-a-fructan-intolerance/

      Thank’s for addressing the issue of mushrooms.  I was under the impression that only wild mushrooms were gluten-free.  Have been avoiding cultivated mushrooms for years. Also, the issue of smoked food was informative.  In France last year, where there is hardly any prepared take-out food that is gluten-free, I tried smoked chicken.  Major mistake!
