Charles is getting quite fed up wif our Elsie, as all of the stuffed toys (about ten of them, everything from gorillas to elves, all without choke-y eyes) that were packed for us by his foster-owner have been fairly destroyed.

Charles lies with one between his big paws and lovingly nibbles at it, then falls asleep with it under his chin. Elsie gets hold of one and has all appendages ripped off within minutes.

Twice since Charles's arrival I have heard Elsie, in the middle of the night, throwing up. Sure enough, both times I found two large, soggy, furry stuffed legs and a couple of big elephant ears in her vomit. These are the number two breed on the list of smartest dogs, pholks .... . ... :huh:

Charles just stares at Elsie as she attacks his adored li'l toys, thinking, I am certain, "What in hell is UP with you?... .. These are MY things. Oh, hell, lookit this, she's EATING the damned thing! You are no purebred, baby"... . . .. ....

Well,Peeps, I'm having a cooking sort of afternoon. Made a batch of bicuits, cooked up a bunch of hamburgs with sauted onion for the freezer, steamed broccoli for din. Now, I'm going to make some cheese sauce, roast a chicken, and make some mashed potatoes. Then, I'll probably be so sick of lookin at food, I won't be able to eat!

What's with the kid that can't get his pants on, the dog that eats his buddies animal friens, the wierd card, A NEW AND SOON GRANDCHILDS, and boobs, boobs, and more boobs? What's with all that?

NEED AN IN-HOUSE SHRINK HERE! B)

Patti (and whoever else here is Casien Free) . . . I have a friend who is taking her son gluten-free/CF and she wants to make him cereal bars (aka rice crispy treats) . . . what do you use as a butter substitute? and have you ever used it in sumptin like that/would it work?

See....THAT'S why I needed to see the movie again........not what I was thinking :unsure:

Methinks what's in my head is more like the toys from Toy Story that that bratty kid tore apart and put back together.......

......can't find any pictures........

ok.......those are called mutant toys

not sure if that's what I was thinking of, either, but it's closer

Happily, after 5 years dairy free I can tolerate it again :D

But, I used to use Spectrum Shortening and light olive oil for baking. If I wanted a buttery flavor, I used Smart Balance, although that has a tiny amount of whey that I could get away with. Earth Balance has a few dairy free choices, too. The sticks are like shortening, and they have a dairy free buttery spread that I think would work fine in a recipe like rice crispy treats. Those would probably be her best bet. :)

You cananadiens are wierd, wild guys, and your pets have strange dietary needs. And, your minds are ever so slightly Deranged. Is this because you have a low population density? Or, a dense population?

And, as a person who lives not that far from Cananada, Can I catch it? Is ther an h1c1 fake vaccine for it? You can make fab Holloween costumes out of heavy-duty Reynolds Wrap.

For cheap. I am the Queen of cheap!

And.....you guys wanna know what I had today that I haven't had in years and years???

Coffee!!!!!!

Back when I was sick, I could not tolerate it so I simply stopped trying. I went to tea and all was good.

Today, I thought--the heck with it, I'm having myself a cup of coffee! Say-la-vee!! :D

So far, so good--I'm wired beyond belief, but that's ok :lol:

Hee! A Metta special!

Catholic Shampoo

While shopping in a food store, two nuns happened to pass by the beer.

The first nun said it would be nice to enjoy a beer. The second nun

answered that, indeed, it would be very nice to have one, but that she

wouldn't feel comfortable about buying it. The first nun replied that

she could handle that without a problem, so, she picked up a six-pack

and took it to the cashier.

The cashier had a s urprised look on his face, so the nun said, 'We use

beer for washing our hair; a sort of shampoo, if you will.' Without

blinking an eye, the cashier reached under the counter, pulled out a

package of pretzel sticks and placed them in the bag with the beer. He

then looked the nun straight in the eye, smiled, and said, 'The curlers

are on the house.'

      What non organic or nonorganic molecules from a plastic bottle of water can trigger a reaction that I have only experienced during an auto immune experience? There really should not be any organic molecules in  such a bottle. I seen a thread where it was mentioned that his refrigerator water filter tested positive for gluten when he had it checked. If I went to physician to get checked for other possible triggers from a water bottle, I don’t think that will go anywhere. Again, distilled water containers cause no reactions. I’m not an industry expert, but something is there.  I don’t think that this is a case of microplastics causing this. Too bad we can’t call upon some third party investigation.  
    • Scott Adams
      It’s understandable to want to be cautious, especially after experiencing symptoms. However, there is currently no scientific evidence that reverse osmosis or standard activated carbon water filters expose people to gluten in amounts that would trigger celiac disease. Gluten is a protein, and if any starch-based binder were used in filter manufacturing, it would not pass through RO membranes or remain in finished bottled water at clinically meaningful levels. Plain water — filtered, RO, or bottled — does not contain gluten unless it is intentionally added (which would require labeling). Steam-distilled water is certainly safe, but it is not considered medically necessary for people with celiac disease. If reactions are occurring, it may be helpful to explore other potential explanations with a healthcare provider rather than assuming filter-related gluten exposure.
    • Scott Adams
      It’s understandable to look for bigger explanations when you’re dealing with complex symptoms, but the current scientific consensus does not support the idea that celiac disease evolved as a defense against Candida. Celiac disease is a well-characterized autoimmune condition triggered specifically by gluten in genetically susceptible individuals (HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8). While some laboratory studies have shown that certain Candida proteins (like Hwp1) share limited sequence similarities with gluten or tissue transglutaminase (tTG), that does not mean Candida causes celiac disease or commonly produces false-positive tTG tests in clinical practice. Anti-tTG IgA remains a highly specific and validated marker for celiac when used appropriately (especially alongside total IgA testing and, when indicated, biopsy). IgG antibodies to Saccharomyces cerevisiae (ASCA) are more commonly associated with Crohn’s disease and are not considered diagnostic for celiac. There is ongoing research into microbiome interactions and immune cross-reactivity, but at this time there is no evidence that yeast exposure from foods triggers celiac autoimmunity in people without gluten exposure. If symptoms persist despite a strict gluten-free diet, it’s best to work with a gastroenterologist to rule out other conditions such as IBD, SIBO, non-celiac food intolerances, or refractory celiac disease rather than assuming a fungal-driven mechanism.
    • Scott Adams
      It sounds like you’ve put a lot of effort into tracking patterns, and that kind of awareness can be helpful. With celiac disease specifically, though, the only confirmed immune trigger is gluten. Reactions to dairy are common after diagnosis because intestinal damage can temporarily reduce lactase, leading to lactose intolerance — but that’s different from casein sensitivity. IgG food panels, including yeast, are generally considered markers of exposure rather than proof of clinical intolerance. Aged cheeses like Irish cheddar are typically gluten-free, though they do contain casein and natural cultures. If symptoms are strong and repeatable, it may be worth working with a gastroenterologist or allergist to sort out true allergies, intolerances, or other GI conditions rather than assuming multiple cross-reactive immune triggers.
    • Scott Adams
      I completely understand wanting to track down every possible source of exposure after a celiac diagnosis, especially when symptoms are distinct and repeatable. That said, there’s currently no credible evidence that bottled water — including filtered water products like Gatorade water — contains gluten from filter materials. Activated carbon filters are typically bound with food-grade binders, and if any starch were used in manufacturing, it would not remain in the finished water at measurable or biologically active levels. Plain water itself does not contain protein, and gluten is a protein. Major beverage companies also have strict allergen control programs, and gluten would need to be declared if intentionally added. If symptoms are occurring consistently after certain products, it may be worth discussing with a physician to explore other potential triggers, but at this time distilled water is not considered medically necessary for people with celiac disease.
