Hate when I do stuff like that. I forgot I couldn't eat walnuts. Remembered was reminded after eating a whole bowl of them....

We really are quite the group, aren't we? :lol:

Bunnie - I hope that takes care of it and you feel better.

Jess - Just hanging around waiting for Rachelle? On the book it looked like she's out spending money.

Gonna have some tomatoes tonight - will be on the lookout for trouble.

Just got back from a PT appt. Does anyone else spend all their doctor's appointments laughing hysterically?

Don't smack yerselph Bunnie--I just found myself sensitive (really sensitive) to lemons. I hadn't had freshly brewed ice tea in a long time and got a hankering for it last week so I made some. I had a wedge of lemon in a glass every day and after about 4 days I was having D, then ...well suffice it to say that I felt like I was burning from my mouth on down.

Took a week to clear up. I've stayed away from citrus for quite a while ever since my daily orange juice began giving me problems after I went gluten-free. I've read that tomatoes and strawberries can act similarly.

Jeesh :angry:

Ain't that odd, strawberries make my tongue burn so I've never eaten enough of them to cause a problem......

Yeah--I can, and do, eat bushels of blueberries but strawberries make me burn. I'll have a few once in a great while, but that's it.

Right now, I'm making a pot of butternut squash soup wif apples, onion, celery, and a dash of cinnamon. I had some things I wanted to use up, and with just me here I can eat some tonight and have lots left over. It almost smells "Thanksgiving-y" in here :P

What did you do? Did they have you play funny childish games? Or is your PT really funny?

Sounds delicious. I'll help you eat that up! Saw a recipe for something like that - it was one of those recipes that make something simple very complex.

C'mon over :D

I did it very simply--put everything into a pot with chicken broth (sauteed the onion and celery first in a little good olive oil) and cooked until very soft. I was hoping I wouldn't have to drag out the food processor, and tried using a potato masher first. It didn't get nearly creamy enough, so I did have to run it through the processor.

It's really good!

Oh, dear, Bhughnnie - - no tomato pasties for you. Actually, unless you have a SKIN reaction to tomatoes, they would probably be okay........ :rolleyes:

Of course then we might not be able to tell where she ends and the tomatoes begin.....

you know what you need? An immersion blender! They're so awesome! And way easier to clean than a whole food processor. You should look it up, you can get a good one for 40 bucks. Good for smoothies and soups and whipping cream and all sorts a stuff!

I know--I was thinking that as I was processing. It's one gadget I don't have.

I don't have one either. I'm running out of room ( oh.. Who am I kidding? I ran out of room 15 years ago) in my kitchen.

That's why these are so great, they take up almost NO space, they can fit in a drawer. If there's space in my kitchen, there's space in yours! I have the least storage of any kitchen I've ever seen, it's ridiculous.

That's true. There's room in ANY kitchen for one. I saw them being used on Ready, Steady, Cook, a British program, and said I gotta have one of those. I have a Braun. It is a mini-processor (chops nuts and stuff like that), then you take the handle part off and attach the blending wand or a whisk. They are really cool.

OOOOH! OK. I think you have talked me into one. There must be something I can get rid of to make space. Maybe the 6 cheap metal cooking spoons with cracked wooden handles?

Goodness! I slept zero hours last night. It's cool and all to see our hotel is a very tall round tower, but you add some wind and rain whipping around that building and yous gets a LOT of noise. I'm now on the boat, about to have to turn my lifeline off and we pick the ONLY seats behind a family of 2 SCREAMING children and their obnoxious baby talking parents and grandparents. The kids are not babies.... I just took 2 motion sickness pills and have no idea what they will do to me, we were too late for me to get my coffee this morning..... We haven't even left the pier yet! I think I shall try to nap--that or laugh watching the woman across from me scowling in disdain regarding these 2 kids. Wonder if I can get away with taking a pic of her.....

Uh oh, iPhone has to go ni-night right now. Love you all, pray we make it alive on this "big boat, yes it is, isn't this a big, big boat" <gag>

Have fun Rach!!!

Oye Rash-elle....between the pills and lack of coffee, maybe you'll sleep through the whole thing! :P

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again
