Nope--don't drink coffee anyway but he was quite pleasant and put booties on over his shoes when he came in to look at the window :P

got another idea for a halloween costume--Lindsay Lohan--so I'd do a dirty red wig, prison jumper pulled tight on the top with some cleav and black bra and fancy belt, rolled up on the bottom with the ankle monitor and some fancy pumps, a syringe taped to my arm and a baggie of cornstarch for the coke....

Overdone??

Today normality officially returned to the shaky isles :rolleyes: The godwits, knowing nothing of earthquakes in the lower hemisphere, officially returned to Christchurch, and church bells pealed across Cathedral Square in the heart of the city to celebrate their annual return after a nine-day, 11,000 km (no, sorry, I don't do conversions, just live with two systems) migration from Alaska, to the common estuary of our two rivers for their summer feeding grounds. :D Remarkable birds, those godwits - sure glad our Boeing 777-200ER jet doesn't take that long. Can you imagine nine days wifout food, or taking along gluten free food for the ride??? :unsure:

DH and I have gone as famous, easily-recognised couples to Hallowe'en parties, and the real reason that we were so incredibly phunny and memorable was because I went as the male figure and hub went as the woman. This you should do, Rah-shyelle... . . ....you're the cop, he's Lindsay. Yer peeps will be talking about it fer years. . .....

:lol:

Shrooomie! The godwits.. . . . ....have never heard of these creatures. Must look them up. Gads, they must be wasted, skinny little things...nine days?? :blink:

kareng Grand Master

Rachelle, love the Lindsey idea with one of you as a cop or guard.

Shroomies bird's must be thinking, " What the French toast happened here? We leave the humans in charge for a few months and they trash the place!"

Just looked the birds up. J is impressed with the athletic ability. I like the long beaks.

Well... . . ...here is some certain comedic fodder. In their description of the black-tailed godwit, Wiki states that "The winter plumages are fairly drab, but three species have reddish underparts when breeding."

Omg. . . . ... . .:unsure:... . . . .their areas turn RED whilst breeding? Whot in hell?.. . . .....Trying to come up with a pragmatic, evolutionary reason for this to happen. Plumage, size and coloUr changes are said to occur to ensure the procreation of species by attracting the opposite sex.

Hmm. I should think that red would suggest a big stop sign for me. .. ....

Canna imagine being attracted to.. . . ..something suddenly red.

However, I am not a godwit... . . .. ....

:rolleyes:

Just went to the "Gluten Free Gala" at HyVee grocery. For some reason there was a huge array of sweets to sample but nothing else. I did my best to sample them all! Some were extremely delicious!

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Actually, I think it was Mother Nature what did the trashing. The humans did the befouling of the estuary :o, since the sewerage system isn't fully restored and some of it is still escaping into the rivers:unsure: Hope the godwits stay safe.

Watching SNL. Got an idea for Russell's costume. The girl said she went last year wrapped in cellophane. She was a left-over.

Deeeeelemmmmmma pholks, must start planning now.....need help!!!!

Good friend is throwing her annual Halloween party this year.

Our annual Halloween shindig is coming up too, but we're supposed to go as fairy tale characters :blink:

T'is 'British cheese week'

I love cheese..... the smellier the better huh.gif

Brad & Angelina. Each carry a doll of different races.

Last year a couple went as John and Kate plus eight. She wore a cocktail dress and a boa. He was Asian and had 8 babydolls pinned to his shirt.

I have a little story to tell.

:huh:

:unsure:

:blink:

I am SOOOOO confused!!!!

kareng Grand Master

Curly Lisa, you could go as a character from Shrek. They are sort of twisted versions of fairy tale characters.

The background characters? Wicked witches parents? They must have been some mean, twisted people. The police looking for Snow White when she disappeared into the woods? Did they put out an Amber Alert ?

curlyfries Contributor

Carla is back!!!!!!! She just couldn't stay away :wub:

Didja bring any of our other missing psillies with you? :unsure:

People!!! What am I doing here??!!?? We're camping this weekend and I have not even STARTED getting ready!!! Gah!!!! OK, so maybe it's one of those unconscious subconscious things of not really wanting to go. Uggghhhh!!! So much work for so little time actually on location.

You're camping THIS weekend???? HERE?????? :o

It is waaay too cold at night, as far as I'm concerned.

Didja get rained out yet?

My favorite Halloween costume was when my friend dressed in ragged, dirty clothes, gave himself a makeup black eye, and his shirt read, "The Economy." One year I was Strawberry Shortcake, one year my husband and I went as Johnny Cash and June Carter...You could be a couple of the kids from Twilight...

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
