We live in a neighborhood where it's fun to give out candy. We always get lots of kids and it's nice to visit with all the parents who are out and the neighbors. Many years, it's not too cold and we stay outside with the candy.

This year, we will be moving over Halloween, so no giving out candy :( ....

And while I'm thinking about it, should I change my name now that I'm going to be living in Pennsylvania :unsure: Seems like it will be kind of misleading :P

except that I am the crazy old dog lady hag who darkens the house and hides in the back room for halloween

Yeah, but I bet you use it as an excuse to stock up on Nuggets!! :lol:

We normally get lots of kids as we live in an old downtown area ... but this year it's all torn up because they're doing lots of work, so I doubt we'll have as many, but you never know.

And while I'm thinking about it, should I change my name now that I'm going to be living in Pennsylvania :unsure: Seems like it will be kind of misleading :P

But Pennsylangel doesn't sound as good ... :huh:

Boy, does my boy need one of those floating around his desk. Where do all the pencils go in this house? And why do we always lose the black coloured pencils?

We let the kids in the hospital trick or treat. What we do on Halloween with the help of their parents and volunteers, the kids who are well enough dress up and they get pushed around through the main floor and offices and different departments hand out candy and we get dressed up if we want. Since they said some kids cannot eat candy we do all kinds of things, pencils, stickers. It is a lot of fun and their faces light up. They also make bags up for the children who cannot come to do the Halloween Parade. My hospital has a childrens hospital so about 30 kids do the parade itself, and then there are a lot more that do not come out. We love doing it. I spend my money and efforts on my hospital kids and don't do regular halloweening at night.

this year we are taking my little neice and Tammy's boyfriends daugther who is 3 trick or treating. I will be at home a few days, since I will be getting married that weekend. We will also take any foster kids my mom will have out to Halloween. I love children.

You are moving closer to me :) do you have to give up your wegmans or will there be one close?

We will be kind of in between the Warrington and Allentown Wegmans. This weekend, while up there looking at houses, we stopped at the Warrington one--it's brand new. It's close enough that I can go every week :)

I think what you do at the hospital at Halloween is great. What a nice way for the hospitalized kids to join into the holiday.

Mark proposed to me on Halloween night in 1974. We had taken my little sister out trick or treating, and then the two of us went out after.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

ohh, Patti that is so sweet. We are getting married on the night they turn the clocks back.

Since you have been in the Warrington store, that is what ours looks like. It is huge! Lots of gluten free food too. In ther flyer this week there was a big section about gluten free shopping in their store. I am not sure if it just for the Harrisburg flyers or not but it was great to see. :) Another reason to love the store.

jerseyangel Proficient
Another reason to love the store.

So true--I'm so happy I'll still be able to shop there. :D

Wow--the wedding is really getting close. Are you nervous yet? Is everything all set?

Everything is almost set..I was supposed to go for the final dress fitting tonight but due to work issues I had to reschedule.

We need to get our wedding bands. I need to finish my favors.

My wedding is a beach theme. We both love the shore and we decided to incorporate that into the wedding. Our invitations were a couple walking on the beach with the lighthouse in the background.

Our wedding cakes are both sea shells and beachy.

My centerpieces are Wine Bottles which still have corks (thanks to my coworkers for saving them for me) I am making messages in a bottle. The Bottles I have our huge and I will fill them with sand and small shells and roll up a piece of paper and make it look weathered and like a scroll.

My favors are white pails and I am going to put some candy in them wrapped in purple tulle.

I am not carrying flower bouquets and neither are my attendents, we have shell bouquets being made by a crafty friend.

My garter even has a shell on it.

am I leaving anything out?

Dear Everyone,

I have been reading along, just not posting. I have enjoyed every minute of it, too! :) All of the posts are so hilarious! Between Nikki's kitten farting, Susie's kitty journal, tom's ptuamfoolery, Alex's church bulletins, Richard's Viagra cufflinks, Bev's hair craziness and silly Halloween tips (I should try some of those) as well as Tampon crafts, and all of the hair talk, plus the emoticon interpretations, I am cracking up! :lol: I am desperately needing to catch-up on the OMG Thread, so this has to be a quick drive-by. I wanted to tell you a bit about my hair.

My hair is kind of scary. It appears to be man-eating. :blink: This is quite scary. I always have found it in odd places all over the house to a point, but strands of it have ended up in some very bizarre places that you would never expect. Take for example, my best friend's coat, despite she was not that close to me while we were talking. Chad (my brother) says my hair is like The Blob. :lol:

Now, I used to not be concerned. Lately, I am starting to think I should cut it for my own safety. :unsure: I have considered getting it cut and colored to look like Jennifer Aniston since earlier this year, but fear looking like a Chinese chick trying to be white. :ph34r: However, for a number of months, my safety appears to be an issue with its length. This Spring, I accidentally caught myself on fire while making pancakes. The heating grate is right by the stove, and a strand of my hair blew up into the flame and the next thing I knew, I was ignited! :o

Then, the other day, I was sitting at the table writing and doodling in my notebook, and my pen disappeared. I wondered where it could have gone. It was right there next to me! Suddenly, I heard something fall to the ground. My hair had grabbed my pen and it had just let go of it! :blink: Things are starting to get a bit weird.

Sincerely,

Jin

Part 1?

. . . . . Hallowe'en . . .

. . . . .

Superfluous spelling: Yes, Tom, I agree, these U's are fairly silly, extraneous, and only serve to confuse when it comes to spelling and pronunciation.

And you people have gone so far as to insert extraperfunctory punctuation INSIDE wourds?

Just what letter(s) is/are covered by that maniacal apostrophe in Hallowe'en?

...16 count crayons, 3 no. 2 pencils, glue stick, 1 box Tampax gentle glide, smock, etc...

Ohhhhhhhh my .. . .. . I may never get another chance .. .. .. (where's that embarrased emoticon?) so . . . ..

"Gentle Glide"? Was that some man in marketing's idea or is there any truth to it?

Susie!!! Day 983 of my captivity. :lol: :lol:

...must go do manly things and pry my mind from this mire

Or, as nikki would say, myre.

Time to tend a fyre maybe?

We're having (well- someone, not me, BETTER be having) a Halloween/40th birthday party for me cuz I love love love Halloween and getting dressed up and I want those ghosts! :o

WooooOOOOO-HOOOOoooooo!!

can i come?

And nice new av!!

20 ways! :lol:

Aww that's no fun .. .. :(

I SO would've expected The Dingnacious One to fully embrace the whimsy that is All Hallow's Eve!

Or did a bat get caught in your hair as a young'in? (How's that spelled?)

Dear blueeyedmanda,

I am so excited for you! The wedding is going to be fabulous! I know I already know what I want when I get married.

All I need is the groom! :lol: I was hoping for maybe John Stamos, but who knows? I would not sneeze at Zach Braff, or Josh Groban either!

Dear Bev,

I love Halloween as well. In Wicca, it is Celtic New Year. You can feel the magick in the air on this night! It is wonderful. The children in their costumes are so cute! Whenever it is warm, I sit out on the porch with a bowl of candy. I entertained a bunch of teenagers last year. It was so much fun!

Dear tom,

Let me see...I have a superfluous word for you. My name in Wicca is different. Practitioners have special names inside the circle. Mine is Weathr Keridwyn Fyrstorm. Your Craft name has to match your birth number numerically, so that is why it is spelled so odd. These names are sacred inside the circle, but who can anyone tell? :lol: You say this name to anyone, they will think you are on crack!

Sincerely,

Jin

It all sounds great! I love the "beach" theme--all your ideas sound so cool--very creative. I'm glad you're just about all set so you can then relax and enjoy the day. :)

Wow--it does sound a bit scary :o Like it has a mind of it's own.....

I wouldn't mind John Stamos either or Bon Jovi, he is still looking good :)

Thanks everyone, When I first started the beach weddng I didn't think the idea would ever get this far.

The word Hallowe'en is a contraction for "All Hallows Evening", likely a Pagan name for the New Year. Jin? So hey, it ain't just us people! ;)

I, too, am wide-eyed over Richard's Gentle Glider reference, for I am female and haven't heard of that Tampax classification. "Regular", yes, and even "Super-duper"...Richard...how do you know this?

How about some things a woman should NEVER say to a naked man?

-Can I paint a smiley face on that?

-Wow, and your feet are so BIG...

-This explains your car...

-It's okay, we'll work around it.

-I am so sorry...

      The easiest way to remember the difference between the cholesterol types is HDL;   H=healthy equals healthy (omega 3, 7, limit 6 & 9 MCFA'S =Medium Chain Fatty Acids. 3= coconut oil, 7= sunflower oil, avocado. The higher your HDL the healthier you are & less likely to experience strokes, clogged arteries Etc. You can even use cold expeller pressed coconut oil on your skin and that is the best kind of coconut oil to eat as well. You want your HDL much higher than your LDL, it will help you stay healthy.   LDL;    L=Lousy. Meat fats, processed fats.  The higher your LDL is the more likely you will have strokes, clogged artery is, heart disease, fatty liver.   Then there's lipids... they are the culprit to be blamed for many heart attacks and things like that they are very small round particles that transport fats. You can have a low overall cholesterol reading and most of it be healthy cholesterol and have a ton of lipids and there's nothing you can do to change the lipid count. High number of lipids is very dangerous.   I'm going on statins is extremely dangerous if you ask me it's just completely my opinion, because I have seen so many of my elderly friends bleed to death internally because of the statins. I mean you wouldn't take all the oil and grease out of your car or a motorcycle and then try to drive it that way would you? You see that's what statins do they remove all of your bodies fats and it doesn't matter whether it's healthy fats or a lousy fats. It removes all of them and then your body can't function properly. You have to have fats to keep your skin supple and to stay warm. Your body also needs fats to digest & process certain nutrients, amino acids & vitamins.   Your brain is composed of fat so is that something you really want to remove with a pill every morning and night?   The thing about statins is that they also make the blood vessels and capillaries permeable. So this is how my friends who were on cardiac medication for a long time and statins ended up bleeding internally to death.   If you want to make sure that your heart is healthy, take odorless garlic at night and magnesium, vitamin K & calcium.

      It's also a symptom of EPI.

      Yes.  Proportionately a small piece to a toddler is like a whole slice to an adult.  This is an important clue.  She was doing well, accidentally ate gluten and later the old behavior returned. I remember reading posts here of people reacting to a kiss from someone who had just eaten gluten. Recent research indicates that 40% of first degree relatives of someone with Celiac have undiagnosed Celiac Disease.  Father, mother, siblings.  There is a whole list of symtoms of "silent celiac".  Here is an article of symptoms possibly mistaken for other causes than Celiac Disease.  When I finally stopped gluten at 63 years old, I counted 19 things that improved, including lifelong mouthbreathing.  I never smelled bad things, so I as a kid, I learned to respond to the other kid's response in order to not seem weird. I really recommend you pursue testing for all the family if you can, and the whole family following GFD.  It is difficult at first, but the benefits will be worth it.

      I get these but where we are, they are called chicken potstickers. I would obviously suggest that it is the ginger in the product that is causing a stimulative digestive effect! So you might want to do what I do, just cook one of them with the rest of your meal so you don't have the same effect. I love the Feel Good products but they are on the expensive side. (I also drink Reed's ginger brew so in general, ginger is a friend of mine..when delivered at the right dose). Hope this helps and have a warm healthy week!

      Has anyone had Steatorrhea (oily/fatty poop) as a temporary glutening symptom or should I be concerned I've introduced chronic gluten somewhere (like in meds)? I haven't gotten Steatorrhea since before I went gluten free. However, I moved in the past few weeks and haven't been as careful - I've eaten at restauraunts with cross contamination but only experienced minor symptoms like headache. The past week, I ate only gluten free food at home except I went to Red Robin and got fries (told them gluten-free; allergy). The next day I had Steatorrhea and the day after that.   I know it's a symptom of malabsorption so I was wondering if it was the kind of thing that could be caused by one event or if it was due to a more chronic issue. Of course I will speak to a GI but I recently moved and need to find one.   Thank you for any info
