BTW....what do you get at PFChangs? I've only been there once and did not like what I ordered.

Hopefully this isn't want you got and didn't like, but I always get Philip's Better Lemon Chicken with white rice. Chocolate Dome for dessert (if I can't eat it there, I take it home :P ).

We don't have PF Changs up here... . . . . ...it's phunny, I remember you saying this, Leeeesargh, when we were strolling along those hot Chicago streets to our late lunch in July- - that you were not impressed with Changs. All the millions of things you yak about in a day, and what you end up remembering. . . .. . .:rolleyes:

If we all go to Changs we get 4 different gluten-free things to share. J doesn't share well as he isn't a big fan of Chinese style food. He does love the pepper beef. We usually get the spiciest chicken thing (Dali chicken) and the lesser spicy chicken (Spicy Chicken) thing. Then something else to try. M& hub love the extra spicy one. I like the Spicy Chicken. We had the beef and snow peas and it was good. Always a chocolate dome.

Could you Psillies tell me, am I typing in English? As I posted above, I am still having trouble with emails being understood.

It was something with a crab or seafood sauce......blech. Actually, the taste wasn't so bad, just couldn't get past the texture......kinda.....slimey, I think.

I remember the stress of searching for our dog :( Ours was a happy ending. Someone saw my notice posted at the local library. They had taken our dog in....to their home, not the library.

Will be on the look- out but 12 miles is the farthest a lost dog has come to find me.

Since the little lost schnauzer that I posted on FB, we had another dog run down the street straight into M & hubs arms. He had a collar and went home quickly. My mom says that during the depression the Hobos marked your house for other Hobos to show you would feed them. We have been marked by lost dogs.

You probably can't understand a word I am saying because it's not in English orAmerican.

I ran your post through the language translator and it came out just fine :rolleyes:

We used to have a marked house too, but not just dogs - we even had a rabbit once. Sometimes the same dogs over and over so we knew where to take 'em home. We were the first house outside the city limits, where they could get off the street and run all over hell's acre. The rabbit we had for 10 days until the peeps got back from vacation and saw our ad in the paper. I bet the rabbit sitter was chastised :o He had hippity hopped over a lot of busy streets. We were kind of sad to see him go. One dog the owners were so irresponsible, instead of taking him home (again!), we took him to Pets Lifeline to try to get him rehomed, he was so unhappy :( .

Well, here is your text in Bulgarian - - perhaps this is what these blokes are seeing (if so, one cannot blame them for misunderstanding):

Ако ние всички отиват да получим Changs глутен 4 различни неща за дял. Й не споделят добре като той не е голям фен на китайски стил храна. Той не обичат наругавам говеждо месо.

Ro must have gone to take a nap!

*wakes up* huh what? Oh oops sorry, I got busy at work and then fell asleep how awful of me!

Dream time!

So to preface my dream, I am the clumsiest person you will ever meet. Even though I did take six years of ballet as a kid. So here goes.

I was teaching a theater troupe some sort of dance, and I had some of the students come up and demonstrate as I taught. It was to a common upbeat song ye hear around these days, but I can't remember what it was for the life of me now. But it was fun and everyone on stage was all bright and colorful. (And it was funny to see everyone mess up and me being the choreographer doing it perfectly. HA!)

And then the scene changes, and we are doing a slower dance. Its to a song that a guy in the troupe is singing. He's singing a song about a girl that appears in his dream. I don't think it is a real song though, which is funny since I can't song write for the life of me. (I do write poetry though.) Anyway, I was dancing in the song too, (maybe demonstrating what would be done?) And the boy does the final lift with me, and then sets me down. Apparently there was these moving blackboards as part of the set (Don't ask me why.) and I ran right into them as I tried to gracefully exit stage right. So of course, I just laugh and say, "Can we try that again." So we go through the sequence again, and I exit gracefully the second time around. (To this part of my dream my coworker says as I tell her about it, You run into things even in your dreams? Sheesh!)

The story has made headline news here, POeter. Sgt. Russell is being lauded for having been a superb officer, and an all-around great guy. A devoted husband. And new father. :(

Okay! Here is an excellent photo taken of DD yesterday by one of her good friends who has some cool features on her Mac camera. 'Tis quite a likeness, and I suggested she submit it for her informal yearbook photo:

HOLY CRAP!!! Glad she's ok!

Trying to stay warm......Why do I live here???? :unsure:

Seeing an allergist, now. I don't tolerate much of anything these days. Haven't found any allergies yet except dust mites, so he took me off all grains (wasn't eating much anyways, but there goes my tortilla chips :( ) and beans. Things that dust mites could be habitating in. I don't think that's it. Next he wants me to try an organic diet.

$$$

So sorry to hear that Lisa. I'm limited in what I can eat and will probably be more limited after I see new GI next week. Let me know how the tests go. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you can keep your chips and beans.

Dog Story Time

We've been giving dogs that come into our store some new treats to try out. The treat is Beef Sticks with Garlic. The dogs are loving them :) Yesterday we got stock in and Peter put the overstock on a lower peg of the rack that these treats go on. Trevor, who is pictured below, comes in with his human for a treat. Trevor has never been a problem and he gets to walk around the store while the owner and us talk sometimes. Trevor helped himself to the treats that you see in his mouth. These are the treats that we've been giving out. Trevor's owner couldn't get the treats out of his mouth. We let Trevor have the treats and I moved the overstock up so the other dogs wouldn't shoplift as well.

      I know I haven't been tested but self diagnosed that by avoiding gluten the past 7 months I feel so much better.

I have followed how to eat and avoid gluten and have been good about hidden gluten in products, how to prep gluten-free and flours to use to bake gluten-free and have been very successful. It has been a learning curve but once you get the hang of it and more aware you realize how many places are gluten-free and contamination free practices etc. One thing I have read is how soy is like gluten. How would one know if soy affects you? I have eaten gluten free hershey reeses that say gluten free etc some other snacks say gluten free but contain soy and I dont get sick or soy yogurt no issues. Is there adifference in soys?

      Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold.  Our bodies have difficulty absorbing and utilizing it.  Only 30% is absorbed and less can be utilized.   There's some question as to how well multivitamins dissolve in the digestive tract.  You can test this at home.  YouTube has instructional videos.   Talk to your nutritionist about adding a B Complex.  The B vitamins are water soluble, so any excess is easily excreted if not needed.  Consider adding additional Thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) or thiamine hydrochloride.   Thiamine is needed to help control electrolytes.  Without sufficient thiamine, the kidneys loose electrolytes easily resulting in low sodium and chloride.   We need extra thiamine when we're emotionally stressed, physically ill, and when we exercise regularly, are an athlete, or do physical labor outdoors, and in hot weather.  Your return to activities and athletics may have depleted your thiamine and other B vitamins to a point symptoms are appearing.   The deficiency symptoms of B vitamins overlap, and can be pretty vague, or easily written off as due to something else like being tired after a busy day.  The symptoms you listed are the same as early B vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can appear in as little as three days.  I recognize the symptoms as those I had when I was deficient.  It can get much worse. "My symptoms are as follows: Dizziness, lightheaded, headaches (mostly sinus), jaw/neck pain, severe tinnitus, joint stiffness, fatigue, irregular heart rate, post exercise muscle fatigue and soreness, brain fog, insomnia.  Generally feeling unwell." I took a B 50 Complex twice a day and extra thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine and TTFD.  I currently take the Ex Plus supplement used in this study which shows B vitamins, especially Thiamine B 1, Riboflavin B2, Pyridoxine B 6, and B12 Cobalamine are very helpful.   A functional evaluation of anti-fatigue and exercise performance improvement following vitamin B complex supplementation in healthy humans, a randomized double-blind trial https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10542023/
