Me thinks I have too much vodka still in me stomach to stomach this poo and loo discussion :P A sales rep took us (work peeps) out to a pub last night for all you can eat and drink. I'm not sure he knew what he was getting himself into--or us, since we all had to be at work this morning by 0630. We've lost one already, he went up to surgery (to work) and hasn't come back. Me thinks he may be sucking on an oxygen tank somewhere.... :lol:

Wish you all could join me this weekend, Madeleine and I will be baking up a gluten-free storm Saturday and Sunday so if yer in the Portland area, please stop by :) It's supposed to snow tonight, so we'll see....Furnace was frozen again this morning. Twas out at 0530 with my hair dryer trying to thaw the thing out while dh was all snugglie warm in bed <_<:rolleyes:

Wish I was bakin fer partehs, but alas, it's just for me and Madeleine, we love to eat :P

Our house is 95 years old and the furnace we had last year I'm pretty sure had been there for 95 years <_< , but we had this massive snow storm the week before Christmas last year and were all stuck in the house for a solid week. Furnace was working fine, BUT the week after Christmas the damn thing died and we replaced it with a snazzy new one. The warranty is out mid Jan, so I guess it's good it happened now....

I need to come up with a good name for my blankie now too, per Knick ;);) gots to wake up more phirst...maybe sum help: it's brown, thick and hairy fuzzy :huh::lol:

Well now, there is a tale behind my blankies moniker...t'was bought as a gift for the middle boy.With the blankie came a pillow (in the shape of a pig)...the blankie had stripes..... so was only natural that he called it Tiger Pig :lol: The pillow didn't make it past the first machine wash...but the blankie LIVES ON!!

(he never got to use it much 'cos ..... what with the cats...... and...umm.....ME :ph34r: )

I suggest you ask the kiddos!!.... they come out with such original ideas! :D

Mornin' marshmallow candies Peeps,

Delousing is coming along. Skeeter is a mayonaise head today (a home remedy recommended by the pediatrician until it's time for the next formal RID shampoo session). She's handling it all so well, then hubby is taking pictures of her while she was getting mayo'd. We both ripped into him!!! He thought it would be nice to have to "remember this" by . . . first of all, we're not going to forget . . . second of all, who really wants to remember this!!!

Lisa's got jewelry!!! . . . Personally, I'd rather have the snowblower :P . . . Maybe I'll get hubby some jewelry and he'll get me a snowblower. :lol:

You could always wear a spare part to the snowblower around your neck as jewelry . . . it will certainly catch the attention of the male population. How many men would say "hey, that's a pretty ruby necklace you have?" . . . but if you're wearing a snowblower part . . . "Hey, is that the starter handle off of a Model# 88846 Craftsman Professional 420cc 45" path Two-stage Snowblower?" . . . much more eye-catching me thinks. Plus, it would look good with your penis earrings.

      Welcome to the community @MCAyr! One thing you need to know is that in order for celiac disease diagnostic testing to be valid, you must not have been on a gluten-free diet already. The first stage of celiac disease testing involves looking for the blood antibodies that are produced by the inflammation in the small bowel lining. Once you eliminate gluten, the antibodies begin to disappear and it takes weeks or months of being back on normal amounts of gluten for them to build up to detectable levels again.

      Hi currently being investigated for celiac; suspected dermatitis herpetiformis, low calcium and vit D, stomach discomfort and 2 episodes of awful stomach pain (docs think maybe triggered by pregnancy)  Went gluten-free for 5 weeks was feeling great then last week accidentally had some in a sweet! Followed by 2 days of absolute hell and excruciating stomach pain and cramping below right of belly button. Since then the really bad pain has gone, but I've had sore to touch above my belly button and think I can feel a lump, was painful for a couple of days to point I couldn't sleep on sides. Docs palpated few days before I could feel lump, and felt nothing.  Anyone had a hernia they didn't know about until their gluten reaction inflamed it? Or is this just another lovely gluten sensitivity symptom?  Many thanks

      Your story is a powerful and heartbreaking testament to the profound damage that can be caused by undiagnosed celiac disease and the profound pain of not being believed or supported by family. It is sadly a common narrative within the celiac community to have suffered for years, even decades, while autoimmune conditions stack up, all while being dismissed. To answer your core question: yes, living in a environment with significant, constant gluten exposure, especially from airborne flour in a home where milling and baking occurred, would have created a perpetual state of autoimmune activation for you, even beyond the direct ingestion. This chronic exposure is strongly linked to the development and exacerbation of the very autoimmune disorders you describe—Migraines, Meniere's, Hashimoto's, and more. Your body was under constant attack, and the lack of care and understanding from your family compound that trauma significantly. It is not your fault. Many in the community share similar stories of a cascade of illnesses finally explained by a celiac diagnosis, often coming too late to prevent irreversible damage. While I cannot speak to the legal aspects of your inheritance situation, your experience with the medical neglect and the lasting impact of your childhood environment is deeply valid and shared by others who understand this unique type of suffering. Thank you for having the courage to share your truth. Celiac.com has published a book on our site by Jean Duane PhD called Gluten-Centric Culture, which covers many of the social aspects of having celiac disease: This chapter in particular covers issues around eating with family and others - Gluten-Centric Culture: Chapter 5 - Grabbing A Bite Together:

      It's incredibly tough to watch a young child grapple with the frustration and sense of deprivation that comes with a restrictive diet, and your empathy for her is the first and most important step. At seven, children are deeply focused on fairness, and her feelings are completely valid. To support her mental health, shift the narrative from "missing out" to "empowered choice." Instead of "you can't have that," use language like "we choose these safe foods so your tummy feels happy and strong." Involve her directly in her own care; let her be the "Gluten-Free Detective" at the grocery store, picking out exciting new treats, or make her the head chef in baking a special dessert that everyone gets to enjoy. When eating out, empower her by having her call the restaurant ahead to ask about safe options (with your help), making her feel in control rather than a passive victim. Acknowledge her feelings—"It's okay to feel sad that you can't have the roll, I sometimes feel that way too"—and then immediately pivot to a positive action, like unwrapping the special brownie you brought just for her. This combination of validation, involvement, and reframing turns a limitation into a shared family challenge where she feels supported, capable, and loved.

      I know that Shiloh Farms makes this product, but I don't think it is labeled gluten-free.
