You guys is sweet :wub: :wub: :wub: I just try to translate how someone's words make me feel, into sentences. I'm glad I seem to feel the way others do.

Y'know, Bun, my boss stopped talking to me when I started wearing low cut tops and push-up bras. Kind of a good thing, so don't waste that sort of power on an interview...

Hee! My interview's with women. And it's at a company that does auto salvage and auctions. So if I need future leverage over a male muckety-muck at the company, I'd like to hold my cleavage in reserve! Besides, I've had enough co-workers think that glasses + cleavage equal sexy librarian tiger woman! Rar! Down boys, glasses just mean I'm nearsighted and lazy.... Cleavage means I need to do the laundry... :ph34r:

You can't fill a hole in someone else's soul. Your job is to enhance his life, not complete it, that's up to him to do. You are a vibrant, intelligent, loving woman and you are more than enough for someone who isn't hiding from themselves. You can't fix him. You can't make him see you for who you are. You CAN be the most amazing you that you are. Stop waiting for his approval, just be quietly awesome, as you already are. He will, or he won't, realize what he may be losing, but what he realizes is up to him, not you.

You are welcome to come up to Bainbridge for a weekend, if you don't mind construction and no kitchen. We can drink heavily and you can scream all you want.

Wow! You's amazin'! Very insightful! I flipped out on him yesterday afternoon. I told him he couldn't ask things of me and when I give him 100% of what I have, then complain that it's not enough. It's not fair. I told him it's his problem, not mine and if he's not happy with who I am, then MOVE THE F*CK ON!!! I don't deserve to be with someone who's always looking for something more. If I'm not enough, he needs to find someone who is. Oh yeah, and this really makes me want to jump in the sack with him.....give me a flippin' break! :rolleyes:

Bainbridge sounds like a blast!! Wodka, fresh air and most importantly--amazing company!!

Aint it the pitts? Just gonna have to do a multiquote on every post and then delete the whole blooming lot :blink:

That's what I do. Then my computer does this wierd thing--whenever I stop talking, it automatically shoots to the top of the reply page and I can't even see what I was doing unless I start typing again. It's epecially a pain since I'm not a fast typer <_<

.. .. ..And that you are young.. . . ...... <_<

And that you haven't nursed 2 kids to the point that you have to pull them out of your pants just to hoist them into a bra :blink:

NOW you're talkin'!!

Do you all remember the wonderful bib that I painted for my mom as a birthday gift a couple of years ago? She has always been a spiller -- while she's eating, drinking, preparing food - -always getting stains on her bustline, as that's where it all fell and stopped. So, I made her a HUGE bib that she could really use at the hospital now as she is getting into her clothes (great sign!). A big bikini-clad torso.... :lol:. . .I know it will be a hit there. Think I'll post a pic of it on Da Book. .. . . .. . ..

Maybe you've shocked him in the right direction. If not, maybe you can shock him in the right direction. They do those electic shock treatments at your hospital?

My computer jumps & makes it near impossible to babble on. I don't let it stop me! :P

Must see a pic of this! My mom always dribbles on herself. I don't think she would wear a bikini painting tho. Your mom has a much better sense of humor then mine.

Need some cooking advice:

I want to make a gluten-free dessert to take to the Robotics Banquet but I haven't really baked anything yet. Needs to be something teens will like & not to hard to make. Need to make lots because the kids will all want to try it. I can bake with gluten, just have to figure out how to without it.

The kids were quite matter of fact when I said I had to eat gluten free. Almost no questions because they are so used to all these different restrictions thier friends or they have. Mostly they just want to eat my Crunchmasters crackers or chocolate.

jerseyangel Proficient

Kharreign,

If you want something simple, why not do gluten-free brownies? You can frost them and sprinkle nuts or something on top. Betty Crocker is good, Gluten Free Pantry is even better if you can find it. There are also tons of recipes for them on here in the cooking and baking phorum.

Did try the BC with added choc chips & they were good. Maybe I will try gluten-free Pantry.

We'll see, time will tell. He asked that we see a marriage counselor together but he doesn't want to see mine, he thinks she may have a skewed view of him :rolleyes: Probably true :P Thru his work, they cover so many sessions for free, so I will comply, should be interesting..... I just cannae take any more crap. I AM AMAZING and I should be treated as such ;) My cake turned out pretty good with all my frustration yesterday :rolleyes:

I'm pre-interview self-medicating with the almond butter brownies I made from Elana's Pantry website. They're pretty darn good, not for the normal baker though. I'll be frosting the lion's share for my 'birthday cake' later today, hopefully it will also be 'new job cake'! Or at least, 'interview went great' cake! We is goin to the club tonight, woohoo! My mum also sent me some mysterious birthday present project in the mail, very curious to see what it is, should get here later today.

TITLE: Darkest Chocolate Cake

SUBMITTED BY: Rachelle

RECIPE HISTORY and SOURCE: I've tried and messed with so many different recipes to come up with the best chocolate cake imaginable. This is my final result!!

INGREDIENTS

2c gluten-free flour (I use my own blend)

1 scant tsp xanthan gum

1 1/4 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp sea salt (regular is OK if you don't have sea salt)

3/4c unsweetened cocoa powder

3/4c oil

2c sugar

3 eggs

1 tsp vanilla

1 1/2c espresso (or 2 heaping TBS instant coffee mixed into 1 1/2 cups hot water)

DIRECTIONS

-Preheat oven to 350. Prepare 2 9" cake pans, 1 9x13 pan or 12 muffin tins by spraying with cooking spray. Line cake pans with parchment or line tins with liners

-Fold dry ingredients together with a large spoon, then sift with a whisk until well combined

-With an electric mixer, mix oil and sugar until well combined, scraping the bowl a few times

-Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well in between

-Add vanilla

-Alternating dry ingredients with espresso, add to the wet ingredients, mixing well with each addition and scraping the bowl in between.

-Pour into prepared pans and bake until the center of the cake is set and a toothpick comes out clean 35+ minutes for 9" pans, 40+ minutes for 9x13 pan or 20-25 minutes for cupcakes

      @nancydrewandtheceliacclue, you are welcome. After looking at this thread again, I would like to suggest that some of the other comments from @Russ H are worth following up on. The bird-bread may or may not be contributing to what you are experiencing, but it seems unlikely to be the whole story. If you have access to decent healthcare, I would write down your experiences and questions in outline form and bring this to your Dr. I suggest writing it down so you don't get distracted from telling the Dr everything you want to say while you have their attention.
    • Aretaeus Cappadocia
      @Russ H, I partly agree and partly disagree with you. After looking at it again, I would say that the slick graphic I posted overestimates the risk. Your math is solid, although I find estimates of gluten in white bread at 10-12% rather than the 8% you use. Somewhat contradicting what I wrote before, I agree with you that it would be difficult to ingest 10 mg from flinging bread.  However, I would still suggest that @nancydrewandtheceliacclue take precautions against exposure in this activity. I'm not an expert, I could easily be wrong, but if someone is experiencing symptoms and has a known exposure route, it's possible that they are susceptible to less than 10 mg / day, or it is possible that there is/are other undetected sources of exposure that together with this one are causing problems. At any rate, I would want to eliminate any exposure until symptoms are under control before I started testing the safety of potentially risky activities. Here is another representation of what 10 mg of bread would look like. https://www.glutenfreewatchdog.org/news/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/10mgGlutenCrumbsJules.jpg Full article that image came from: https://www.glutenfreewatchdog.org/news/what-does-10-mg-of-gluten-look-like/
    • nancydrewandtheceliacclue
      @Aretaeus Cappadocia thank you for your reply and the link, that is very helpful to get a visual of just how small of an amount can cause a reaction. I know I am not consuming gluten or coming into contact with gluten from any other source. I will stop touching/tossing bread outside! My diet has not changed, and I do not have reactions to the things I am currently eating, which are few in number. My auto immune reaction just seems so severe. The abdominal pain is extreme. It takes a lot out of me. I guess I will be this way for the rest of my life if I ever happen to come into contact with gluten? I appreciate the help. 
    • Jmartes71
      Thankyou I did find out the Infectious disease is the route to go rather than dermatologist. I did reach out to two major hospitals and currently waiting on approval for one of them in Infectious Diseases to call me. I also did have implants ( I didn't know and sense not properly in my medical. Neither did surgeon)in 2006 and there was a leak 2023 during the same time I was dealing with covid, digestive issues, eyes and skin.Considering I " should  be fine" not consuming gluten/wheat, taking vitamins for sibo and STILL feeling terrible.It has to be parasites. I also take individual eye drops prescribed, could there be an issue there? Anyways my pcp thinks I need therapy because again they don't acknowledge my digestive issues because in my records it shows im fine, hintz the reason I had to go back to bay area hospital:(  I thought skin issues maybe sibo related but I feel and have seen and seriously trying not to think about it because it's disgusting. 
    • Aretaeus Cappadocia
      oops. I didn't see that before posting or I would have at least referenced it. The two recipes are pretty similar, but I think the newer one is a little simpler/faster. Next time though I will search more before posting.
