Dead mouse? What a Good Mornin' that is! :lol:

Just had some hot quinoa porridge (made a batch for the fridge this am after our discussion last evening)....with brown sweetener, cinnamon and the big treat - - homogenized milk......yuuuuuuummmmmmm.. . . ....... :)B)

I find that grains, generally, are NOT good for my blood sugar control, so I rarely indulge. Is it the same for you, POeter? Quinoa and rice seem to be the best for this.

Fantastically, alcohol is superb for keeping blood sugar down. Jess, you would make a great diabetic. :lol:

Me car's going in for the big tire change today - -spring is truly here! :)

And yet MORE laptop problems. . . . . ... :angry::angry: ..... . . does not allow me online, even though I am connected. WHAT IN HELL?? Somebody has told me that it is because it is running on only one bar of strength . . . .. .... :huh::huh: . . . . ... ....hanh??

Sigh. . .. . . .....I feel like I'm on only one bar of strength. . . . . . ..

Carry on, Psills!

Hi Sillies!

John is feeling a bit better. He has some more appointments and hopefully we find out more soon. I was able to find the Honey Chex last night--talk about exciting. I was dancing.

Its kind of gloomy here today too--I think they might be expecting rain which works for me--they were showing on the news yesterday where we are real dry for this time of the year and thats not good going into the summer months.

Paddeigh how are you settling in? Send me some warmer weather.

Till later

I went back into the room to discover that Lyle had eaten the ears off the mouse and left the rest for me.

This brings up serious social-psycho-ancestral-caveman questions when you consider the implications on the consumption of chocolate Easter bunnies...

And served to you in bed on top of it all!! :D

It's a bit cooler here this morning--58 and cloudy. I have me windows open to catch the breeze :)

Did I tell you guys that the fridge here doesn't work? The freezer is fine, but the fridge is only slightly cool. (which is odd since the whole place is brand new...) They gave me the key to an unrented apartment across the hall so we can use that fridge till the Whirlpool guy gets here today.

Walked over yesterday in me PJ's to fetch the almond butter :lol:

Hmmmm....why DO we eat the ears of those bunnies first? It would somehow seem weird if the first bite we took was off its face. . . . . .. . ....but why?. . . :huh::lol:

Take me through it Em!..do you boil in water or the milk??

...sounds GOOD! :P

I boil it in water for about 15 minutes. It keeps in the fridge really well (perhaps not Patti's apartment fridge :rolleyes: ) - - I've made a big pot and it's been fine for almost a week. I heat up a bowl in the microwave for a minute. Jack likes some honey, cinnamon and milk on it (I put berries on mine). . . . . ....TRY IT!! :)

Good news on John, Amanda! :)

Pahteigh headin' across the hallway in her jammies . . . .. :lol:

You MUST name this useless fridge.

I think Wayne.

Yes-do name this fridge-- PJ trips and all phun!!!

Jess- at least you didn't have to get dressed to get breakfast and it didnt cost you a cent either ;)

My goodness sillies--I swear Lucky has become the pimp of the neighborhood--in the last week I got 2-3 different cats at the porch staring at him at our back porch. I don't know if he is showing off a little tail or what but he is very popular.....I can have my own little Kitty Brothel.

They don't seem to cause me much of a problem. Perhaps it is because I am using lispro (Humalog) which has a different action pattern than regular insulin.

Afternoon sillies :D

I see big ponderings going on here in Sillyville, why do we eat the ears off the chocolate bunnies first???

Nikki, I would give the quinoa another try. It does sound like maybe you used too much liquid. Give it a go with a reduced amount.

ANd score on the gluten-free baked goodies you found :D

Amanda, I LOL'd at you dancing in the cereal aisle. IT's the little things that bring so much joy :lol:

Patti, hope you get your fridge fixed soon.

A Lisa B poop in. Hi Lisa!!!!!

Got nawt to share. We are supposed to get snaugh tomorrow. We've had spring weather patterns all winter pretty much and now when I am REALLY ready for SPRING and wanting it here to stay we will probably get 4 weeks of winter LOL That's how it always goes :lol:

You all have yourselves a good day!

Julie--I can't believe you're getting sno!!!! :o And after 70 degree days, too. <_< Glad you checked in :D

Well, Wayne is fixed! He had to have his whoosie-whatsis motor replaced (located behind the freezer) and the drain was plugged (?). The fridge doctor was able to unclog the ice dam and replace the motor in about 20 minutes :D

Will leave the phood in Steve for 24 hours, as he suggested ;)

Now we have to decide if I should change Wayne's name........ :lol: This is getting complicated :P

Woke up a little after midnight and I've been awake since. It's rainy here, with a high probability of snuggly cats. It'd be a perfect day to call in sick......but it wouldn't do me any good in the long run, so may as well go in.

I got NO silly in me a'tall (menstrually depleted <_< ) but that did crack me up! :lol:

Hey, where did Psoozee go? Has anyone seen her?

see the above :(

Field observations of 653 deer within 50 metres of power lines in the Czech Republic also revealed random orientation.

Okay, okay, let's think, now. . . . .....how can we use this highly researched area of study to help Tareeeeesuh and her plethora of unwanted deer? Perhaps a freakin' enormous magnet clandestinely buried in someone's yard down the street will orient them thattaway. . . ...... :huh:

:lol:

Sooooozie's menstrual. . . . .......large poopy cow. . .....

I say this, and I immediately think of Sarah. :( I wonder how she is doing? Really miss her 'round here. . . . . ... . . ....

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      By Waterdance · Posted

      It is addictive. The dopamine hit I get from a sandwich after being gluten free for a while is insane and I immediately crave more. Maybe if I think of it more like an addiction I'll be able to beat it in the future.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Undiagnosed Celiac Disease was your root cause.  As you heal and adress nutritional deficiencies you'll see lifetime symptoms disapear, some you don't even realize you have.     Until 1951 no one knew the cause.  Around 1900 it was also called "Infantilism", you outgrew it or died.  Dr Hass around 1920 was the first to come up with a treatment with close to 100% survival.  At 63 I followed his diet for a while and it helped me past the early stage of recovery.  Even then it was only considered a childhood disease, eventually the child outgrew it.  Once outgrown the child was reintroduced to wheat.  After that any symptoms that arose were attributed to whatever was popular, gall bladder, allergy, endometriosis, etc.  Often the final diagnosis is "we do not know the cause, it is just normal for some people, but we have medications that will treat your symptoms."   I was bloated, and always colicky.  When my son was born in 1976, my mother commented "You got what you gave."  I pointed out to my wife that he looked like a Biafra baby from the Biafra famine in 1970.  One of the first successful sales of modern wheat was to replace the rice the Biafran Aid Society supplied.  After searching the state where we lived (pop. 6 million) we found the one child gastroenterologist familiar with Celiac.  He only had 13 other children dianosed with the disease under his care and after several endoscopies my son was diagnosed, put on GFD and immediately thrived.  The doctor also suggested my wife and I also do gluten free.  We declined, not having any gastro problems.  That remains my only regret in my life. THE VALUE OF THE BANANA IN THE TREATMENT OF CELIAC DISEASE  Dr Hass' 1924 puplication with diet. There are over 300 symptoms related to celiac disease I believe that if you have the genes, you have Celiac Disease, but your immune system is strong enough to keep it subdued, or your symptoms are misdiagnosed as something not wheat.  Until something happens to weaken the immune system, and symptoms, often misdiagnosed and wrongly treated, until eventually you die, never knowing or you get lucky and end up eating gluten free.  To me it explains the late onset of acute symptoms, many are "just normal for you". Ever wonder why people get so angry if you suggest they may have Celiac Disease.  Wheat is a cultural and economic staple of our lives.  And it is addictive, it numbs our body.  Suddenly, gluten free, all the other irritants are no longer suppressed.

      I don't think we can say that just one thing, whether vitamin D deficiency or emotional trauma, or a viral infection, or what ever is always what triggers the onset of celiac disease. We do know there is a genetic component to it and there is increasing evidence that factors creating gut dysbiosis (such as overuse of antibiotics and preservatives and environmental toxins) are major players. Hybridizing of heirloom wheat strains to increase the gluten content by multiples may also be a factor.

      Thanks for the follow-up correction. Yes, so not 10x normal and the biopsy is therefore totally appropriate to rule out a false positive or the unlikely but still possible situation of the elevated lab test number being caused by something besides celiac disease.

      By Waterdance · Posted

      Thanks. I believe I can trace my gluten and milk allergies to specific traumas in my life. I've had some quite severe traumas over my lifetime. Mostly in my history I was so out of sorts surviving that diagnosing gluten sensitivity/allergy/celiac was just not on the table for such a survival mode existence. Vitamin D makes sense too. Now I take very good care of myself, I have a rock solid stability and I do take 1,500 IU of D daily. It's more obvious to me now what's causing problems and so most of the time I only eat protein and vegetables. I cheat sometimes. I end up paying for it though.
