BTW....what do you get at PFChangs? I've only been there once and did not like what I ordered.

Hopefully this isn't want you got and didn't like, but I always get Philip's Better Lemon Chicken with white rice. Chocolate Dome for dessert (if I can't eat it there, I take it home :P ).

We don't have PF Changs up here... . . . . ...it's phunny, I remember you saying this, Leeeesargh, when we were strolling along those hot Chicago streets to our late lunch in July- - that you were not impressed with Changs. All the millions of things you yak about in a day, and what you end up remembering. . . .. . .:rolleyes:

An Ottawa couple has made the international news. Gawd, for their sake, I would NOT be helping them out if my name were Gruzilda, or Eustace... . . .

If we all go to Changs we get 4 different gluten-free things to share. J doesn't share well as he isn't a big fan of Chinese style food. He does love the pepper beef. We usually get the spiciest chicken thing (Dali chicken) and the lesser spicy chicken (Spicy Chicken) thing. Then something else to try. M& hub love the extra spicy one. I like the Spicy Chicken. We had the beef and snow peas and it was good. Always a chocolate dome.

Could you Psillies tell me, am I typing in English? As I posted above, I am still having trouble with emails being understood.

It was something with a crab or seafood sauce......blech. Actually, the taste wasn't so bad, just couldn't get past the texture......kinda.....slimey, I think.

I remember the stress of searching for our dog :( Ours was a happy ending. Someone saw my notice posted at the local library. They had taken our dog in....to their home, not the library.

Will be on the look- out but 12 miles is the farthest a lost dog has come to find me.

Since the little lost schnauzer that I posted on FB, we had another dog run down the street straight into M & hubs arms. He had a collar and went home quickly. My mom says that during the depression the Hobos marked your house for other Hobos to show you would feed them. We have been marked by lost dogs.

You probably can't understand a word I am saying because it's not in English orAmerican.

mushroom Proficient

I ran your post through the language translator and it came out just fine :rolleyes:

We used to have a marked house too, but not just dogs - we even had a rabbit once. Sometimes the same dogs over and over so we knew where to take 'em home. We were the first house outside the city limits, where they could get off the street and run all over hell's acre. The rabbit we had for 10 days until the peeps got back from vacation and saw our ad in the paper. I bet the rabbit sitter was chastised :o He had hippity hopped over a lot of busy streets. We were kind of sad to see him go. One dog the owners were so irresponsible, instead of taking him home (again!), we took him to Pets Lifeline to try to get him rehomed, he was so unhappy :( .

Well, here is your text in Bulgarian - - perhaps this is what these blokes are seeing (if so, one cannot blame them for misunderstanding):

Ако ние всички отиват да получим Changs глутен 4 различни неща за дял. Й не споделят добре като той не е голям фен на китайски стил храна. Той не обичат наругавам говеждо месо. Ние обикновено получават на spiciest пилешки нещо (Дали пилешки) и по-малката Пикантно пиле (Пикантни пилешки) нещо. След това нещо друго, което да се опита.

Ro must have gone to take a nap!

*wakes up* huh what? Oh oops sorry, I got busy at work and then fell asleep how awful of me!

Dream time!

So to preface my dream, I am the clumsiest person you will ever meet. Even though I did take six years of ballet as a kid. So here goes.

I was teaching a theater troupe some sort of dance, and I had some of the students come up and demonstrate as I taught. It was to a common upbeat song ye hear around these days, but I can't remember what it was for the life of me now. But it was fun and everyone on stage was all bright and colorful. (And it was funny to see everyone mess up and me being the choreographer doing it perfectly. HA!)

And then the scene changes, and we are doing a slower dance. Its to a song that a guy in the troupe is singing. He's singing a song about a girl that appears in his dream. I don't think it is a real song though, which is funny since I can't song write for the life of me. (I do write poetry though.) Anyway, I was dancing in the song too, (maybe demonstrating what would be done?) And the boy does the final lift with me, and then sets me down. Apparently there was these moving blackboards as part of the set (Don't ask me why.) and I ran right into them as I tried to gracefully exit stage right. So of course, I just laugh and say, "Can we try that again." So we go through the sequence again, and I exit gracefully the second time around. (To this part of my dream my coworker says as I tell her about it, You run into things even in your dreams? Sheesh!)

Is there a site I can put my message in and have it come out in Bulgarian? That would be funny! Well to me, it would be funny!

The story has made headline news here, POeter. Sgt. Russell is being lauded for having been a superb officer, and an all-around great guy. A devoted husband. And new father. :(

So glad that you're far enough away from the horror in Queensland, Shroom! Very unpsilly, indeed, that... . . ...:(

Okay! Here is an excellent photo taken of DD yesterday by one of her good friends who has some cool features on her Mac camera. 'Tis quite a likeness, and I suggested she submit it for her informal yearbook photo:

I'm sure I would freeze something off at that temp....and I wouldn't have to be flashing. Perhaps that's why my boobies have refused to grow.....preservation :ph34r:

exactly :rolleyes:

HOLY CRAP!!! Glad she's ok!

Trying to stay warm......Why do I live here???? :unsure:

Seeing an allergist, now. I don't tolerate much of anything these days. Haven't found any allergies yet except dust mites, so he took me off all grains (wasn't eating much anyways, but there goes my tortilla chips :( ) and beans. Things that dust mites could be habitating in. I don't think that's it. Next he wants me to try an organic diet.

$$$

So sorry to hear that Lisa. I'm limited in what I can eat and will probably be more limited after I see new GI next week. Let me know how the tests go. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you can keep your chips and beans.

Dog Story Time

We've been giving dogs that come into our store some new treats to try out. The treat is Beef Sticks with Garlic. The dogs are loving them :) Yesterday we got stock in and Peter put the overstock on a lower peg of the rack that these treats go on. Trevor, who is pictured below, comes in with his human for a treat. Trevor has never been a problem and he gets to walk around the store while the owner and us talk sometimes. Trevor helped himself to the treats that you see in his mouth. These are the treats that we've been giving out. Trevor's owner couldn't get the treats out of his mouth. We let Trevor have the treats and I moved the overstock up so the other dogs wouldn't shoplift as well.

      Just so you'll know, once you have been gluten-free for any length of time, it will invalidate testing for celiac disease.
    • QueenBorg
      Yes. I have not been tested for celiac. It took forever to get diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. lol. I have an appointment with my regular GP later this month and will convey my findings on improved symptoms and see what his thoughts are. Thank you.

      @Grahamsnaturalworld, It's never too late.   Have you been checked for Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth?  SIBO can cause ongoing symptoms.  Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and Histamine Intolerance (HIT) can also be the cause of ongoing symptoms.  The AIP diet can help with these by starving out SIBO bacteria and calming the immune system. Do you include dairy in your diet?  Casein in dairy can cause an autoimmune response the same as to gluten.  Have you been checked for lactose intolerance?  Some people lose the ability to produce the enzyme, lactase, needed to digest lactose, the sugar in dairy because the villi where the lactase enzyme is made are damaged.  AIP diet excludes dairy. Do you include grains in your diet?  Gluten free alternative grains and ancient grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms.  Some people with Celiac react to corn and oats.  The AIP diet excludes all grains.  Lectins in grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms. Do you eat nightshades (tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, and eggplant).  This family of plants produce glycoalkaloids, chemicals that promote Leaky Gut Syndrome.  The AIP diet excludes nightshades.   Are you on any medications?  Some medications can cause gastrointestinal symptoms.  Do you take any supplements?  Some herbal teas and supplements can cause digestive symptoms.  Medications for diabetes, antidepressants, and other pharmaceuticals can cause digestive symptoms as side effects. Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Malabsorption of essential nutrients can occur with continued symptoms.  Deficiencies in Niacin, Thiamine, and other B vitamins can cause digestive symptoms.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi and Pellagra are often overlooked by doctors because they are not familiar with nutritional deficiency disease symptoms.  Nutritional deficiencies can worsen over time as stores inside the body are depleted.   Have your doctors checked for all these?   I had a horrible time getting my symptoms under control.  I had to answer all these questions myself.  Yes, it's frustrating and exasperating because doctors don't have to live with these symptoms everyday.

      Ok, thanks for the advice, the only advice I've had that's made sense after 21years since my slight symptoms all my life turned into nasty symptoms 21 yrs ago and around 50 gp's and specialists all chasing the symptoms and not looking for the cause, after 9 years of misery I discovered my symptoms matched celiac disease and a blood test proved anti bodies to gliadin but it was too late it has changed into r.c.d. thanks again.

      Welcome to the forum, @QueenBorg! Just for the sake of clarification, your desire to avoid gluten is connected only with your dx of fibromyalgia and not celiac disease, correct?
