GoOoOood Morning, Psillies!

Well, things are getting a smidge easier. After studying the intense technical instruction of Jyaghnutt, I have been able to successfully do the mundane, basic functions that I require to put up a post on here.

HEY!! Do we still have our spectacular image-imbedding feature available to us??? :unsure: Gah.....must check..........

WIH???!!! I go away to immerse meselph in closet cleaning hell and I come back to INSANITY!! I've been staring at this new phormat thing for the last 30 minutes trying to figgur it out. I'm sure as soon as I git it all, it'll change agin :(

My tree is still up, but the playroom, Max's room and Madeleine's room have all been gutted and reorganized! I'm skeering the crap oot of me husband, he asked me in a panic last nite "why are you nesting?!?!" I lurve messing wiph him!

Another emergency visit to my chiropractor yesterday. Me thinks all that bending and cleaning is nae good for me back. He did say not to quit the P90x, will help in the long run.....Darn, now I have to keep doing it ;)

I took most from me BIL and a tad from a recipe site and a pinch from me neighbor . . . so it went like this:

Cut diagnol lines (about an inch apart) across the side of the pork loin that has the layer of phat. Cut lines in both directions so that there is a diamond pattern. Mixed about 4 tbsp of soft/melted butter with seasonings of choice (I used Italian seasonings, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, & pepper). Rub mixture on all sides of pork loin including the side with the phat. Added a little more Italian seasoning to the phat side. Cooked on a broiler pan (phat side up) in 350 degree oven until meat thermometer read 165. Removed, covered loosely with foil and let rest about 15 minutes (temp continues to rise about another 5 degrees). I got no pink and not dried out.

Pattern of lines doesn't really make any difference. You could spell your name if you want. My BIL says it's important because it allows the fat to drain down into the meat instead of running off the side. Don't know if that's true but it worked so I'll do it next time too. Do you do butter? Some of the internet recipes used olive oil instead.

Have you ever wrapped the loin in bacon first before baking? Tis soooooo amazing! Nuphin better than pork on pork :huh::lol: That is, before I stopped eating meat.... :rolleyes:

OMG.. . . ...I am planning a BIG surprise birthday party for my sister here at our place next week. It's a work night, after dinner, so sweet nibblies, fruit and cheese trays, wine and beer, coffee, and a big cake.

Sent out my invites last week, and so far we're looking at 20 yeses. I have not heard from her large group of friends - - will be another 10, at least. Then I got an email from her work saying that ALL FORTY-FIVE staff members love her (no surprise), want to come, and what about spouses?

:o:o

See, we have a modest bungalow, and a huge deck and yard that will not be too inviting as it will be -10 and snowdrift-covered. :huh:

Crap......guess I'd better get choppin' fruit. . ..... . . ......

jerseyangel Proficient

Yikes Em!! :o Big surprise indeed!!! You're gonna have a housephull!! Yes--you'd better commence choppin' and peelin'--better yet....call your grocery store and have them do it :P

Well gang, I'm leaving for Estaban's in a little while. Been growing me hair out since before we moved into the house (mid October). I'm definitely getting it relaxed--the method and subsequent style/length will be determined when I get there. Can nae take this phrizzy mess one more day. Kind of excited.... :D

celiac-mommy Collaborator

Wowza Em, that's a lot of peeps for any size house! I think you should tell those extra 45+spouses to bring their coats since they will be dining in the Arctic wing of the house that evening ;)

Patee, must post pics of the new 'do!! Estaban sounds Phabulous!

      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..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y
    • Scott Adams
      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
