Describe your dream home!

Been thinking about this a lot lately, since we really need to have a 1 story house, now. Lots of openness from kitchen to family room, a laundry room, a dance floor (no joke, it will happen :) ), large bathroom with a whirlpool tub and a handicap-friendly shower, a screened-in sun porch.

Any dream house of mine has to come with one of theseman-kitchen-sexy.webp

or, y'know, someone with great balls...

what's in your bucket list?

Describe your dream vacation!

Bucket list.....to learn how to make precious metal jewelry

Dream vacation.....just to be able to travel and have a good time without worrying about money or food.

.. . . .Trying to remember some of the band names from pages past.. . . ....

Badass Snow Poodles?

Expressed Anal Glands?

Oracle POeter and the Fecal Matter?

C'mon, guys, help me out here.. . ... ... . .we had all kinds! :lol:

GAH!!!! Can nay remember ANY of them. :huh: Where is Jan-knit? She can find them!

got no bucket list. If I want it i do it.

not really a home person. I think some people are streamers, and some people are foundations. I stream.

dream vacation....I try to keep up on these so nothing is ever so distant as to be a dream.

I want GeOss's life :P

I think I have become a foundation against my will.....I want to be a streamer B)

We did look at a house with a lovely wooden dance floor. There is a house near here that looks like a regular 2 story house but it has a full basketball court. That would make a good dance floor.

When I first read this I thought it said "streaker". I don't think I EVER wanna be one of those.....and no one else wants this, either. Streaking involves running, which I do, but naked, which I never will. I am clothed and supported adequately. Crap, me running bare naked?? :blink: All kinds of movement, and not of pushing muscle and sinew.. . . .....

Yep, we all know those balls.. .. . . .The Oracle Sampler... .... . . ...... :lol:

Eek--me either! I'd be knocking things over left and right :lol:

Would not be pretty.....

I did see a streaker in the phlesh once, though. It was 1974, at the height of the craze and a guy (that I went to high school with but didn't really know) streaked through a bar I was in wif me phriends. It was hilarious at the time, actually....he (ick) sat on a bar stool like nothing was amiss for a couple minutes and then streaked right back out. Hee :D

Ew! Rarely does anyone we would want to see streaking do it.

Spaghetti and sauce. I can' t think of a witty or racy comment to that.

You snuck in on me whilst I was commenting. Peter's (pictured above) are looking mighty tasty.

Are you kidding me?? Balls with sauce?? I had to back away from the computer to keep from putting down something inappropriate.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
