Gotta go venture out into the c-c-c-cold (another 4-letter word) to pick up my grandbaby from the sitter and take my brother grocery shopping. Anybody else need any favors while I'm out?

Our kids are made of hardier stock. We don't get delays or cancellations as often as you do :P

Keep in mind that I live much further North than you . . . our weather is usually much more severe . . . <snicker>

Twas suppose to run errands today and could nae convince meselph to leave me home. Nothing that couldn't wait a day or two. Doing laundry instead.

Meatloaf for supper. Why is it that I hated meatloaf as a kid and now it's one of my favourites.

I've never hated meat loaf because I never got it as a kid :rolleyes:

I used to not really like it either. Maybe because my mom made it with no seasoning every week! Hated ham & bean soup for the same reason. Jess has turned my Hub & I on to it.

Mine too--it was bland and greasy. I love mine, if I say so myself, and it smells incredible.

Maybe you should share the recipe. 3 at my house would like it. The other one is just a s :ph34r::ph34r::ph34r: sometimes about food. Karma is rough. He keeps dating vegetarians!

UGH!!dry.gif

Did I tell you guys we're FINALLY getting a new kitchen?? Complete remodel.

Sounds good - but Tel's going to have to fit it himself ('cos they want silly £££'s to fit eet!!)

.....so we've got until the 1st of Feb to get EVERYTHING prepped and ready.

Allowing for Tel's joints this is a slow process, I'm helping where possible....he's currently chasing (drilling) out channels in the walls for the wiring for under cupboard lighting.

GAWD! That dust goes ALL over the house mad.gif

Most of me cupboards have been pulled off the walls - living with most of the kitchen in the living room AND have to somehow get the kitchen cleaned up everyday enough to do dinner.

Just the plastering, new ceiling (ph34r.gif) lining the walls - levelling the floor - tiling the floor, painting the walls to go!

No, not stressful at all rolleyes.gif

WAH!!!!!!!

Wow, a gnu kitchen, Gnick! Tres exciting . . . . .. . ..!!

Hey, psnaough ain't no four-letter word. . . .... . .. .:rolleyes:

I'll bet you get better road plowage in your neck o' the woods :P

Our city probably has one o' the best systems in North America.. .. . . 'cause we have to be prepared for so much FRICKIN' psnaough. . .... . today is bitter outside, but very little white stuff so far this winter. The city should have a fair-sized surplus in the budget by the end of the year, and will they fund new school programs or establish further senior/community access care with it? Nope.....they will hire some new middle managers.. . .. ... . .:angry:

LOVE meatloaf.

I bookmarked this recipe some time ago, and we all love it. I add extra fresh garlic....

Sounds like you should be able to get that done easily in time for dinner Sunday night :P - hey, you're almost there :lol:

(On a sympathetic note, WAHH!!!! - hate, hate, hate kitchen remodels! (the process, not the end result :D )

jerseyangel Proficient

Sorry Kerrighnne--we've been out all day. Here's my "recipe"....I don't measure or anything, just dump, mix, and bake.

Meatloaph

Pound and a half or so of ground meat

2 slices bread

milk (or sub--even water)

egg

ketchup

medium sized onion

salt & pepper

Finely mince onion, saute in a little olive oil until soft and set aside to cool. Preheat oven to 350.

Tear bread into small pieces and put into large bowl. Pour enough milk over it to soak and let it absorb for a couple minutes. Add egg, ketchup (about 1/2 cup), salt, pepper, and onion and combine. Add the meat and mix well.

Shape into a loaf and bake (I line pan with non-stick foil) and bake for about one hour.

Did I tell you guys we're FINALLY getting a new kitchen?? Complete remodel.

Sounds great Nik!! It'll be a pain in the butt for a while but the result will be so worth it!!

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
