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."

      This article does not address migraines at all.  Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
