Look at my pic on my profile. That was a Halloween costume. I wore a chef jacket and hat and Hub wore black pants, white shirt & tie and a short black waiters apron. You can get them at a uniform store (the kind that sell to nurses). Very comfy. Or one of you could be the waiter and the other a diner if you could find one of those "lobster bibs".

My BIL & SIL dressed as June and Ward cleaver once. Pearls and an old dress.

Make a jumpsuit out of some fluffy material that sheds a lot and go as a gluten molecule.

Welp, if they're family, go as the relatives nobody wants to talk about. You can show up in curlers with a cigarette hanging out of your mouth and hand the hostess a burnt pie, or a twinkie cake. Mark can be a half-buttoned wreck with a bottle in a paper bag, and pinch all the women's behinds.

This is a great idea, but Patteigh needs to be the man and Mark the woman....much, MUCH funnier........you'll bring the house down.... :lol:B)

LOL!!!!!

We need pictures if you do this!

:lol: <snort> I knew I came to the right place--when we were talking about what we could go as last night, I immediately said I'd pose it to The Sillies :P

Phab ideas! I actually thought of going as a hooker, and loved the chef/matre'd idea. If we do the "trashy relatives" maybe Matt could be the lazy kid still living in our basement that never gets out of his bathrobe. :D

And who else would pay money to see Shroomie dressed up as a street walker?? :o:lol::wub:

My husband and I went to a custome party as Ellie May Clampett and Larry the Cable Guy. blonde wig braided with bows, jean capris with rope belt. plaid shirt with sleeves taken off, jeans, and fake rolex watch, and baseball hat.

Trouble is my Ellie may impression was so good people said my husband was Jethro. So when we had a little kiss, it was really frowned upon. Beyond kissin' couzins.

Shroom, tis a character from a 60's sitcom--The Beverly Hillbillies. Ellie May was the daughter of the guy who struck oil and moved the family to Beverly Hills.

Pattei, I had a friend who dressed in sweats she had painted spots all over, did pigtails, painted her nose black with whiskers, and stuck a tail on her butt. She was a dalmation. Looked pretty darn comfy! I also have a guy friend who has long hair and bears a pretty close resemblance to Ron Jeremy, so every year he just wears a hawaiian shirt and an ID tag that says Ron Jeremy. Slacker.

Or encase yourself in plaster and go as a home-baked gluten free loaf :lol: (and let Mark be Wonder Bread).

Mark can hand out doggie poop bags, and you can put your hands over your ears and yell "go away" every time he opens his mouth.

Ahoy Mateys! Tis the tenth Anniversary of Talk Like a Pirate Day! Argh!

A wee pirate tale to regale you:

A pirate walks into a bar and the bartender says, "Hey, I haven't seen you in a while. What happened, you look terrible!"

"What do you mean?" the pirate replies, "I'm fine."

The bartender says, "But what about that wooden leg? You didn't have that before."

"Well," says the pirate, "We were in a battle at sea and a cannon ball hit my leg but the surgeon fixed me up, and I'm fine, really."

"Yeah," says the bartender, "But what about that hook? Last time I saw you, you had both hands."

"Well," says the pirate, "We were in another battle and we boarded the enemy ship. I was in a sword fight and my hand was cut off but the surgeon fixed me up with this hook, and I feel great, really."

"Oh," says the bartender, "What about that eye patch? Last time you were in here you had both eyes."

"Well," says the pirate, "One day when we were at sea, some birds were flying over the ship. I looked up, and one of them shat in my eye."

"So?" replied the bartender, "what happened? You couldn't have lost an eye just from some bird s$#&!"

"Well," says the pirate, "I really wasn't used to the hook yet."

      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 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

      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 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.

      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.
    • SilkieFairy
      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 coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @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/
