A friend of mine (who's a vp or sumpin') cleaned out her closet and gave me two huge piles of clothes. Sadly the really snazzy one were too big, but they went to another friend of ours so we're all happy. I'm gonna spend the next several hours sitting on my floor sorting through my 'new' clothes and shoes. :)

Where is y'all?? I got home late from my date, went shopping for a housewarming gift, and now I'm home drinking Bard's and eating Snyder's. I feel so ordinary. :D :D

Went to another concert with our son. This was an Australian Cover Band that does Pink Floyd and is endorsed by David Gilmore (they played at his 50th birthday). They were awesome.

What's up with people talking loudly through an entire concert??!!!!!! This is the second one we went to in two weeks where it happened. The last one I nicely asked the guys to shut up and they did. This time I t was afraid I wouldn't be as nice so I didn't say anything. Wound up chatting with the guy during intermission. He still talked loudly through the rest of the concert. People a few rows down left early so I just moved my seat.

We got home really late because my son was "sexiled" from his room yet again and he was pissed off, sick with the flu and all of hs friends were busy. We stayed as late as we could until my hubby felt he had to start driving or would fall asleep on the way home. I feel bad for Tony (our son) because this happens frequently but mommy can't fix things anymore. He's going to confront his roommate tomorrow.

Sorry you were lonely. We're back!! biggrin.gif

Been changing clocks. :blink:

yeah........I changed some last night, but not the big one in the family room.

Hubby went to work an hour early..... *snicker* :rolleyes:

Hi Oscar! My favorite muppet! Can I keep him? Please?

Oscar is not a kept man monster. He comes and goes as he pleases ;)

Yay for Jess and her 'new' clothes! :jealousphace:

Sills--just got home. My son's next door neighbors have adopted the sweetest puppy--she is a mix of toy poodle and dachshund (Doxypoo er sumpin like that)....anyway, she is the cutest wee thing! I just love her. She's 6 1/2 pounds and will only grow to 10 they are told.

Ate way too much sugar this weekend but had a great time so WIH :P

And it seems he is an infrequent, although welcome, visitor here.

Unusual Sunday today. The team member who was scheduled to work was sick, so I worked in the store today.

Gads. So not ready for another Monday. Did a ton of laundry yesterday (the 'new' clothes) and I still have a ton more. I have to go to work dressed up today 'cause I just can't deal with putting on my jeans again without running them through the wash.

This weekend going to a show with BE on Friday, a girls birthday dinner on Saturday, Picasso on Sunday, may have to call in sick on Monday, 'cept I have class so I guess I'll go in anyway.

Another beautiful day here. Going to be 70 and sunny.

Gotta go to the grocery. Gonna make stew and they didn't have celery yesterday. :unsure:

That's the breaking news from Kansas. Wondering if I can put a slash thru the wheat stalks on my car license plate ( like the gluten-free celiac symbol).

70 - I'm jealous (although the snow is beautiful). Klark didn't clean off my car (I think because he wants me to stay home today). I hope he'll do it tonight and pull our cars into the garage. This is our first house with a two car garage and a fireplace.

Enjoy the weather and put the slash mark thru the wheat stalks - what's the worse that can happen?

Loey (Brrrrr)

So phunny! I sometimes buy the store brand organic milk (when they're out of Horizon), and it has a big wheat stalk on the carton. WIH? :P

Thinking about sending a letter to the state if I could figure out who to send it to. Why should I have a picture on my car of something that will poison me? By this logic, CA should have an earthquake symbol on theirs. Or we could put meth lab pics on them! What about the Pilsbury dough boy? A Big Mac and fries? Tornados or hurricanes?

I'm on a roll!

Thanks Emel, it opened for me - what a hoot!

I would not have wheat on me car,either, but you can't have the earthquake symbol for CA - we've got that one all tied up. Still quivering and trembling on a regular basis :blink:

Jess's weekend makes me pheel a bit tired too, but it sure sounds like BE has become part of the furniture at her place :)

I went to the airport over the weekend to pick up my sister, and got all tangled up with the Hilary Clinton motorcade which had traffic backed up for miles in every direction, and took forevvah to clear once she phinally made it to the airport and took opphh. But we got back at her and turned on a perfectly foul weekend of weather with two inches of rain and a cold southerly off the ice. The umbrellas protecting her got blown inside out. Her perfect coiffure as she stepped off the plane became a straight blownback windsweep in one second flat. When she departed she was wearing an Alice band :lol:

Yesterday sis and I had a great lunch at a restaurant called Strawberry Fare with one of our more delightful cousins we had not seen in ages. The food was fantastic, substitutions were freely allowed, our waitress was extremely gluten knowledgeable, 80% of the items on the menu were available gluten and/or casein free, they bake their own gluten-free bread, and we could relax and have fun. Lunch lasted until 3:30 p.m and then we went shopping on Victoria St. which has some very trendy, higher end shops. Good afternoon!!! :) A busy week is planned with a trip to the A&P Show (think county fair, but add in zillions of animals because this is a farming province - also sheep dog trials and stuph like that; our dad used to be a dog trialler so we have a fond appreciation for the border collie) and then a lunch at the home of friends of sis later in the week which may be a bit fraught - will have lots of backup stuph in the car.

Liphe in the shaky isles has not been particularly psillie of late but I have been reading along and staying current. Took sis on a drive through town - it's like driving a gymkhana around all the cones, fenced off areas, demolition zones, and it changes from day to day just to keep you on your toes. My favourite kitchen store is just bare earth :o , but I did find them relocated just a few doors down the street :) And at least my bakery survived intact so the staph of liphe is available.

Hi Jess,

I'm going to lay down for a while but wanted to say hello before I did that since I saw that you were online. I hope you're seeing BE tonight. I LOVE living vicariously. Don't get me wrong - Klark is the best but we've been together for 22 years (married 19) and there's nothing like new love (yes, I said love).

Yep. We all said how great it was to be together with people with whom you have a shared past and heritage - you just pick up where you left off last time :D

I did lamb (this being NZ) shanks in my crockpot on Sunday, with just onion, garlic (lots) and herbs, and some 48-hour homemade beef stock (no tomatoes for me, no red wine for sis) and yes, they (and the smells) were heavenly too. Enjoy your pot roast :)

      Nateral remedies

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      Is Caputo gluten free flour really free of gluten?

      Celiac symptoms

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      Kan-101

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      So just to be cautious, there is a big difference between cured, and responding to their medication. I assume you mean that your daughter responded well while taking KAN-101 during the trial, but the drug would not cure celiac disease, but may manage it while you are taking it. Let me know if I got this right.

      Is Caputo gluten free flour really free of gluten?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Godfather! "Gluten-free" is not the same as zero gluten. The FDA standard for allowing the food industry to us the gluten-free label on a product is that it cannot exceed 20 ppm of gluten. That is safe for most celiacs but not for the subset of celiacs/gltuen sensitive people who are super sensitive. "Gluten-free" wheat starch products have been processed in such a way to remove enough of the protein gluten to comply with the FDA regulation but usually do retain some gluten and we usually get reports from some people on this forum who fall in the more sensitive range that such products cause them to react. Hope this helps. So, you may just have to experiment for yourself.
