Carrots, celery, green peppers, cilantro, onions, black beans, white beans, garlic powder, ham, home made turkey broth. Crock over night, then add smoked paprika and a little hot sauce.

I made this today. Used Kitchen Basics veg broth. Came out delicious. Cooked too fast so I will re- heat it for dinner. Thanks, Jess!

Jestgar Rising Star

Awesome! It's pretty much my mom's soup recipe. I have fond memories of stuffing myself on this growing up.

My mom would have made it the same way but without the green pepper, cilantro, paprika, celery, carrots, garlic...anything with flavor. :P

BE asked me this weekend if there were anything he's doing, or not doing, that needs to be changed. I told him I really would like to be 'courted' a little more, maybe taken out somewhere once in a while.

He called today and asked if he could court me this evening. Perhaps take me out for dinner and drinks. :wub: :wub:

How often do you find a man who actually listens to what you say. :wub: :wub:

And, as a bonus, I'm hoping to borrow his staple gun. I'll let you know if that works out.

Update:

First, to bring all psillies up to speed . . . Skeeter (code name for me daughter) participated in a scavanger hunt at her orthodontist's office. She had to get her picture taken (with a banner from the office or wearing her T-shirt which had the office's name on it) with/at 100 different items/locations. Stuff like . . . in the produce aisle, making a snowman, at the beach (but NOT making a snowman AT the beach, that would be psillie), at a theme park, with a policeman, with a clown, with yellow flowers, with your favorite teacher, on a ferris wheel, doing kareaoke, on a trampoline, dressed as a hippie, dressed as the opposite sex, at a river, at a concert, with a lobster, with a rainbow, on a boat . . . get the idea?

Three kids out of the whole office completed the entire list so their names went into a drawing . . . and Skeeter won. She won a Dell mini laptop - Nickelodean edition. It's actually a cute little computer. I told her she won something (but didn't tell her she won the top prize) and that we had to go pick it up at the Ortho office. She was blown away . . . and really put on the excited/freaked out/giggly 9-yr-old girl show at the office and made the staff's day.

Well done, Skeeter!! :D :D And what a prize! Jyaghnutt, you realize that you could have kept her victory quiet from her, sold the computer on ebay and put the cash toward your massive active ortho bill. Guess it's too late now, huh? <_<

:rolleyes:

Congrats to Skeeter! That was a lot of work for her mom!

Pheline phurry phun here tonight. Becky, who lives at the store, is visiting us at home overnight. She is going to see the vet in the morning. We tried letting her run loose, but the three resident phelines all got their backs up. We didn't want to confine her cuz she claws at the carpet under the door trying to get loose.

Current status: She is locked in the master bedroom, and we have a shock mat deployed beside the door. She touched it once. We think she got the message.

She had been on a weight-loss diet for about a year, but in the summer we had her teeth cleaned of tartar. Since then she has been increasingly demanding of food. In the last few weeks she has ripped open six bags of food in the store. She has put some weight back on, and is limping again.

Obviously, this can not continue. We are trying to find a solution which keeps the weight off her without destroying store inventory. She is at risk for pheline diabetes, and there is no way we can keep her in the store while adhering to the needed insulin injection schedule. If she develops diabetes, she will have to come home (the trial tonight was not successful), or find another home. We do have an option available there.

Dang!!! I had not thought of that!!! . . . yep, too late now . . . ;)

. . . and Karen, Hubby was the one who did most of the work. I knew she had a good shot at it as this was right up his alley as far activities go . . . "Hey, let's go to the State Fair . . . we can get a picture with the ferris wheel, with a clown, on the tractor, with a turkey, and eating ice cream all in one day!!"

Hows about surrounding your inventory of cat food by shock mats?

:o

Um. Doorway 30 inches wide. Store 2,200 sq ft. :huh:

Hey!! At this time of year I need a couple of shock mats right in front of my fridge.. . . . .... ..Where do I pick these things up, POeter?

psawyer Proficient

The device is a Open Original Shared Link. We used to carry them when the product was produced by Contech. It was taken over last year by PetSafe. You may be able to find it at PetSmart. You may also find it online at the site named after a large South American river.

Jess- Hub loved the ham & bean soup, too. He used the Frank's hot sauce. :blink: If the scientist thing doesn't work out, maybe you could be personal chef? I think I have about $24.47 in my purse.

      I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet which is really strict for a while, but later other foods can be added back into your diet.  Following the AIP diet strictly allows you digestive system to heal and the inflammation to calm down.  Sort of like feeding a sick baby easy to digest food instead of spicy pizza.   It's important to get the inflammation down because chronic inflammation leads to other health problems.  Histamine is released as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.  High histamine levels make you feel bad and can cause breathing problems (worsening asthma), cardiovascular problems (tachycardia), and other autoimmune diseases (Hashimoto's thyroiditis, diabetes) and even mental health problems. Following the low histamine version of the AIP diet allows the body to clear the histamine from our bodies.  Some foods are high in histamine.  Avoiding these makes it easier for our bodies to clear the histamine released after a gluten exposure.   Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system and calm it down.  Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiacs.  The B Complex vitamins and Vitamin C are needed to clear histamine.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals boosts your intestines' ability to absorb them while healing.   Keep in mind that gluten-free facsimile foods, like gluten-free bread, are not enriched with added vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts are.   They are empty calories, no nutritional value, which use up your B vitamins in order to turn the calories into fuel for the body to function.   Talk to your doctor or nutritionist about supplementing while healing.  Take a good B Complex and extra Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine (shown to promote gut health).  Most B Complex vitamins contain thiamine mononitrate which the body cannot utilize.  Meats and liver are good sources of B vitamins.   Dr. Sarah Ballantyne wrote the book, the Paleo Approach.  She's a Celiac herself.  Her book explains a lot.   I'm so glad you're feeling better and finding your balance!

      So I should not eat my gluten free bread?  I will try the vitamins.  Thank you all so very much for your ideas and understanding.  I'm feeling better today and have gathered back my composure!
    • knitty kitty
      Some people prefer eating gluten before bed, then sleeping through the worst symptoms at night.  You might want to try that and see if that makes any difference.   Several slices of toast for breakfast sounds okay.  Just try to work up to the Ten grams of gluten.  Cookies might only have a half of a gram of gluten.  The weight of the whole cookie is not the same as the amount of gluten in it.  So do try to eat bread things with big bubbles, like cinnamon rolls.   Yeah, I'm familiar with the "death warmed over" feeling.  I hope you get the genetic test results quickly.  I despise how we have to make ourselves sick to get a diagnosis.  Hang in there, sweetie, the tribe is supporting you.

      Thank you, a little expensive but glad to have this source.

      @knitty kitty  Thank you very much for the advice. I did the exam this morning, my doctor actually suggested me to take something called "Celiac duo test" in which I first do the genetic test and if it's positive, then I'll have to do the antigen blood test. I have to attend 1 month until my results are ready, so I have some weeks to increase the amount of gluten I eat daily. It will be hard because my health is not the best right now, but I also did a blood test to cheek my nutritional deficiencies. The results will arrive on Tuesday, so I can ask my doctor what should I do to control my symptoms and blood levels during this month. For now I'm resting and paying attention to what I eat— at least I don’t look like a vampire who just woke up, like I did yesterday. I'm still scared because is the first time I've felt this sick, but this is the right moment to turn things around for the better.  I realized that if I eat gluten at lunch I cannot finish the day properly, I become severely tired and sometimes my stomach hurts a lot - let's not talk about the bloating that starts later. Do you think is it ok to eat gluten just in the morning, like some cookies and slices of bread for breakfast?
