Hehe

No other state has anything as handy as the mitten!!

'Course, the yupers get left out.

I spent weeks every summer at a cottage on Lake Mich, betw Arcadia & Frankfort.

Great MI memories fo' me. :)

Me mum's side of the family all in MI.

Lake Michigan is beautiful. Scott and I stopped for an overnight in Harbor Springs on our way back from his Blue Gorilla reunion a couple years back. Was fun--went to the new casino. I went to Traverse City as a kid, and will soon take our daughter to the big water park there.

When I was growing up my friend's grandparents had a place on Deer Lake outside of Boyne (Boyne/Macinac are about 5 hours north of me--I'm in Clinton Township). I spent a lot of time there--4 seasons. They used to call us "Fudgies" cuz they said we only came up for the fudge!

My husband's family has a cottage on Houghton Lake, so we go Up North several times every summer. It's totally commercial there though, more retiree than rustic--yes, there is a Wal-Mart in Prudinville :ph34r:.

The Vagina Microphone :lol:<good gawd, I'm only laffin' cuz I ain't had it done yet> :o

WHOT?????? :angry:you don't get surgery? Gimme their numbers...........I'll give them WHAT FOR :harrrumphfffff:

bloody heinous, is whot is it. :(

'twas a spectacular fall.

severe arm scraping and thorn-stabbing and........a gouge into me wee baby toe :huh:

but it was oh so funny and I wish it coulda been filmed <snackle>

I love this - - they've got their own lingo :wub:(yupers? mittens?[/i] :huh: LOVE IT!!!)

and - this Lake MIchigan summer cottage - - can we git it fer a Psilly Psummit? *sigh*

I want to GO TO there :lol: (a line from "30 Rock")

I hope you never need one Suze!

I have been attacked by fallen in a rosebush on more than one occassion and those scratches hurt! hope you're not too banged up today--bet the marks are pretty red and sore :(

But, laughing at the thought of your 'physical humor'. I laugh at with you, cuz I'm glad I'm not the only clod round here :lol:

Yes--we Michiganders have our own built in MAP--our hand! I'm by Lake St. Clair on the bottom right of the thumb bone where it meets the palm ;) We're between Sterling Heights and Mt. Clemens, about 10-15 miles north of Detroit. Yupers are the Upper Peninsula folks (don't go there much--that Macinac bridge is wayyyy scary).

Well guys, the sun is coming up. Time to fill my coffee cup and start the marathon my day. :wub: and XOXOXO to all. Have a great day, friends!

Dear gawd, yes. . .. ....start to mention vagina microphones and anything penis, and oh! There are suddenly rare men posting. . ..! :lol::P

The last time I was in for my Mam and Pap visit, I was lying on the table, complaining about how awful the dreaded speculum (what a thing -- the word alone is terrifying) felt when being inserted and then opened up like an umbrella.

My elderly doctor listened patiently, then said, "you know, it probably wouldn't be nearly so stressful nor uncomfortable if you inserted it yourself"... .. and he handed me the large, stainless steel wrench/corkscrew/pliers instrument. :blink::blink:

I declined, after taking my first good look at this thing... . .I have always purposely NEVER looked at anything in that tray the nurse wheels in....looks too much like toolbelt paraphrenalia.

But the fact that he casually handed the speculum to me was jarring and unforgettable.

Either I come across as freakishly competent, or he may need to retire.

Nikerler! How's our Alsy?

I had to tell my boss the most appallingly personal things when my fibroids were at their worst.

He seems to have survived, though.

You all are fortunate to have bosses with which to have conversations, especially humorous ones. I discovered from the start of this job that you can't tell the "bossy" anything. It gets discussed with everyone else. :angry:

BUTT!!! If you're having a good mental day you CAN have phun with such people :ph34r:

Is it ever anything more than "NOW"?

I was gonna say, penii don't have a plethora of subjects they'd like to discuss.... There's really only two.

So coconut chicken! Simple: Smash up a cup or two of honey nut rice chex, mix with 1/2 cup or so shredded coconut and garlic/salt/pepper. Then dip chicken pieces in coconut milk and then the dry mix (I only dip one side in the dry mix because if you coat the bottom it just gets all mushy anyway) and place in baking dish crunchy side up. Pour remaining coconut milk in pan around chicken, add pineapple chunks if you like, and bake 350 for 35 min, less if it's only a few pieces of chicken. The above measurements made a LOT of chicken, tone it down if you're not a glutton.

Sweet tatoes: Peel, boil, mash, add butter & maple syrup. :)

We also had broccoli.

      @Mynx, how long have you been gluten-free? I ask because many newly diagnosed celiacs react to many things, and often think their reactions are caused by gluten, when in fact, they are really caused by a combination of a sensitive gut due to damage, as well as additional food intolerance/leaky gut issues to other foods which may be temporary until their villi heal.
    • Scott Adams
      Many major brands of distilled vinegar in the USA, including Heinz white vinegar, are typically made from corn. In the United States, corn is a common and cost-effective raw material used in the production of distilled white vinegar. The process involves fermenting the sugars derived from corn into alcohol, which is then further fermented into acetic acid to produce vinegar. Distillation follows, which purifies the liquid and removes impurities, including any residual proteins or allergens. While the source of the vinegar (e.g., corn) is not always explicitly stated on the label, corn-derived vinegar is widely used in the food industry due to its neutral flavor and affordability. For individuals with gluten intolerance or celiac disease, distilled vinegar made from corn is generally considered safe, as the distillation process effectively removes gluten proteins. However, if you have concerns about cross-contamination or specific sensitivities, it’s always a good idea to contact the manufacturer directly to confirm the sourcing and production practices. Heinz, for example, has stated that their distilled white vinegar is gluten-free and safe for those with celiac disease, but verifying this information can provide additional peace of mind. The belief that distilled vinegar is gluten-free is rooted in the scientific understanding that gluten proteins, which are large and complex molecules, are generally too big to pass through the distillation process. Distillation involves heating a liquid to create vapor, which is then condensed back into a liquid form, leaving behind larger molecules like gluten proteins. However, the concern about cross-contamination arises from the possibility that gluten-containing ingredients may have been present in the liquid prior to distillation. While the distillation process itself is highly effective at removing gluten, the equipment used in production could potentially introduce trace amounts of gluten if not thoroughly cleaned between batches. For most individuals with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease, distilled vinegar is considered safe because the gluten content, if any, is typically below the threshold that would trigger a reaction. However, for those with extreme gluten intolerance or celiac disease, even trace amounts can cause adverse effects. This is why some individuals, like yourself, may choose to avoid commercially produced distilled vinegar and opt for alternatives like apple cider vinegar, which can be verified as gluten-free. The meticulous process of researching ingredients and preparing homemade products, such as ketchup, is indeed challenging but crucial for maintaining health and avoiding gluten exposure. It’s important to note that regulatory standards for gluten-free labeling vary by region, and in many places, products labeled "gluten-free" must contain less than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten, which is considered safe for the vast majority of people with celiac disease. Nonetheless, individual sensitivity levels can vary, and your approach highlights the importance of personalized dietary management for those with severe gluten intolerance.

      I have been diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis (LC) for quite a few years, so I have been gluten-free and DF.  I would like to get tested for Celiac Disease because of the possibility of cross contamination and colon cancer.  And if you were hospitalized and didn't have a celiac diagnosis you could not get gluten-free food, I don't know if that is true or not.  Also because there is chance of colon cancer so I want to know if I have Celiac Disease and need to be on very restrictive diet.  The only testing I did was a sigmoid scope and Enter Lab but no gene testing.  I know I can go back to eating gluten for a few months, but I would worry you would have to stay home for the few months while getting gluten.  What other options do I have?  Should I do the gene testing?  Maybe through Entero Lab?  Any other tests?  How important is it to have Celiac diagnosed? Thank you! Barb
    • trents
      Take it easy! I was just prompting you for some clarification.  In the distillation process, the liquid is boiled and the vapor descends up a tube and condenses into another container as it cools. What people are saying is that the gluten molecules are too large and heavy to travel up with the vapor and so get left behind in the original liquid solution. Therefore, the condensate should be free of gluten, no matter if there was gluten in the original solution. The explanation contained in the second sentence I quoted from your post would not seem to square with the physics of the distillation process. Unless, that is, I misunderstood what you were trying to explain.
    • Mynx
      No they do not contradict each other. Just like frying oil can be cross contaminated even though the oil doesn't contain the luten protein. The same is the same for a distilled vinegar or spirit which originally came from a gluten source. Just because you don't understand, doesn't mean you can tell me that my sentences contradict each other. Do you have a PhD in biochemistry or friends that do and access to a lab?  If not, saying you don't understand is one thing anything else can be dangerous to others.
