It was such a mess. I almost got the first one and she freaked and sprayed me with dirt. So now my eyes are streaming from the dirt in them and I'm spitting it out of my mouth, and it starts to rain. I dust off a bit and manage to catch her and stuff her in the coop, then go after the other one. By the time I catch her it's really raining so when I pick her up she coats me with mud. And this is not chucks of dirt, this is the fine dust that has settled into her feathers that she manages to spray me with and it sticks to my wet face and arms. I think only a mud spraying device could have been a more effective dirtifier.

Jyesss's kids are now going through that stage where she's counting the moments until they move out. . .. . . .... :P

Not sure what that could be. Be careful! It might burn!

Its been cloudy here but no rain on the radar. Got ready to go out & plant some flowers. Opened the door and it started pouring! Guess I'm not supposed to garden today.

Just got back from the Chimacum Farmer's Market where I purchased half a cow from someone who is lucky he was born into a farming family.... :unsure::ph34r:

As a bonus I got to hear Ravel's Bolero on banjo. :huh:

Was watching the last few laps of the Indy 500. When I first started watching, a guy named Baguette was leading! Since his first name wasn't Gluten Free, I hoped he wouldn't win. He didn't. He had to make a pit stop.

Okay, I'll ask the obvious question - HIH is that going to fit in your refrigerator? And was it the right or left half?

I'm assuming that Jyesss has a good-sized chest freezer.

Hmm. Left or right half. . . . . ....is one better than the other? I suppose that would depend on whether the poor creature was right or left-handed - - its dominant side would likely be ropey and tough, with all that used muscle matter... . . . . . ... ..

Right, then, so anyone who's considering butchering me for their freezer, call dibs on my RIGHT half, as I'm a southpaw.....

I'd want the back half, cuz you have to feed the front half. :ph34r:

It'll be a month before we get it. They actually take the cows in for "processing" per order. I'm dividing it up amongst me, BE, and some friends of mine.

Love how they have the "starter" products.. . . . . .but DH would need the industrial, "sewn around the edges", reinforced model.. . . ..

Or, wait!! He should probably just move to the big guns - - that suit at the bottom of the page that you just zip around your entire body.......

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a...

Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @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/
