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:

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?

No, Jess is phabulous! Had a great dinner, I mean vodka, and she's right-he always makes sure the ladies have enough vodka :). Had a crazy walk up a crazy huge hill, now I'm toast-and still woozy.... Off to Canadia tomorrow, will post some pictures tomorrow!

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>

      Wheat in cow feed would not equal gluten in the milk, @Wheatwacked, please back up extraordinary claims like this with some scientific backing, as I've never heard that cow's milk could contain gluten due to what the cow eats.

      Oh wow! Thanks for this information! I’m going to try the Benfotiamine again and will also add a B-complex to my supplements. Presently, I just take sublingual B12 (methylcobalomin). Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get cal...

      Hello, @NanceK, I'm glad you're willing to give Benfotiamine with B Complex another go!  I'm certain you'll feel much better.   Yes, supplementation is a good idea even if you're healing and gluten free.  The gluten free diet can be low in B vitamins and other nutrients. A nutritionist can help guide you to a nutrient dense diet, but food sensitivities and food preferences can limit choices.  I can't consume fish and shellfish due to the sulfa hypersensitivity and iodine content, and dairy is out as well.  I react to casein, the protein in dairy, as well as the iodine in dairy.  My Dermatitis Herpetiformis is aggravated by iodine.   Blood tests for B vitamin levels are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have deficiency symptoms before blood levels change to show a deficiency.  I had subclinical vitamin deficiencies for years which affected my health, leading to a slow downward spiral.  Because the B vitamins are water soluble, they are easily excreted in urine if not needed.  It's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.   Wheat and other gluten containing grain products have vitamins and minerals added to them to replace those nutrients lost in processing.  Manufacturers add cheap vitamins that our bodies don't absorb or utilize well.  Even normal people can suffer from vitamin deficiencies.  The rise in obesity can be caused by High Calorie Malnutrition, where people eat more carbohydrate calories but don't get sufficient thiamine and B vitamins to turn the calories into energy.  The calories are stored as fat in an effort to ration out diminishing thiamine  stores.    It's time to buy your own vitamins in forms like Benfotiamine that our bodies can use well.   Not sleeping well and fatigue are symptoms of Thiamine deficiency.   I'm certain Benfotiamine with a B Complex will help you immensely.  Just don't take them at night since B vitamins provide lots of energy, you can become too energetic to sleep.  Better to take them earlier in your day.   Do keep me posted on your progress!

Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!
