Dare to be Royal!!

Did you want to wear a tiara, Tom? I can't help thinking that Emily is waiting anonymously in the background to take us to page 300.

Just to warn you, I will not be posting first on 300 so don't ask me any questions . . . I will plead the 5th.

At first I'm like "how'd I miss this?", then I see it was the dreaded simultaneous posting! :o

Tom, did I read (a long ways back) that you are an engineer?

Me 'n' Choo-Choo Charlie!!

<shukka-shukka . . .. shukka-shukka . . .. >

I guess I can't really even say what I am NOW, but I WAS a Silicon Valley Elec Engr for ~ a dozen yrs. Hmmm one job offer is to be tha again so maybe I am.

I just want to make sure that I am not the Queen of page 300. I don't want to wear any stinkin' tiara. And being in charge of two kids is enough for me. I don't want to have to rule the likes of this lot! :angry::huh::lol::lol:

We can wash the tiara!!!

<is that a dig at our current [OOPS! Former!] queen's hygiene?>

See, I figger we got a King already, so I'm not even eligible for ascension to a TOP spot. It's gonna be you Janet.

Don't even try to 'superweasel' your way out of it.

All hail the New QUEEN AMANDA!!!

(sheesh we were 3 or 4 posts away when I started my last reply. I wondered if someone was broadbanding their way into making me be on p300.)

And yes Janet, I was trying to ask a question or otherwise get a response LOL

It didn't start out that way but . . . OK, sure!

Definitely unpeeled (seedless and red).

Why thank you :)

I think Richard would also make a good jester. Maybe he could be the court artist/photographer.

I will need a king too

No no annnnnnnnnnnd .. . . .no.

I wonder in our motley crew is most likely to be able to juggle . .. .. ..hmmmmm that's a toughie.

I CAN, however, wiggle my ears, if it pleases the Queen to have lobes-in-motion on Her Majesty's Royal Saxophonist.

<uh oh! no promises . . .never tried to do both at the same time. maybe the wigglin' is only 'tween licks. (Take that any way u like :P )

Just don't forget how sensitive they can be. Nor the ruckus he'll create if he feels slighted.

So PLEASE!! I implore you . .. . .when the dancing begins do NOT think about the fact you know the steps so much better than he. Whether a waltz or a tango, or some nondescript unworthy-of-a-name slow shuffle . .. . LET THE YETI LEAD!!!!!! :P

Sarah said she was knee-deep in sheets. (At the time, I thought she said sh!t and was cleaning up doggy-doo but now I know different).

Haha! No that was last week, and it was Ezra poo! <_<

I want to be in the court too! I can wiggle one ear- the right one. I can't do the left one though.

Happy Birthday Emily!!!

We went to an anniversary/Halloween party at my best friend's house tonight, and got home laaaate. I ran around in high-heeled boots all night and my feet are now saying, "Uh. And what were you thinking? You're going to pay now, for at least 24 hours."

Got home at about 1 am, and first carried in sleeping Ezra (up the steps) and put him to bed. Went back, got sleeping Lucas, carried him in, put him to bed. Went back, got leftover food, carried that in. Went back, told my sleeping husband I was NOT carrying his butt in. Came in, took the dog out. Put away said leftovers.

Now I happily have on jammies and soft socks, and I'm watching John Carpenter's The Fog. :D

I musta missed replying to this while off looking for those old pointy bell-enhanced slippers!

Tell me more!!

Work for anyone I may have heard of?

I spent a summer at Sperry right when it was acquired by Honeywell, working on TCAS, the Traffic Collision Avoidance System for comm'l airliners. (I kinda did squat, actually :lol: )

Uh-oh I should be asleep already. <8 hrs until my Pod-loaders arrive! <which was the sleepy emo?>

      My Story

      Thank you for sharing this—your story is heartbreaking, powerful, and, unfortunately, far too familiar to many in the celiac community. Being dismissed, misdiagnosed, and blamed for symptoms for decades, only to later discover they were all connected to untreated celiac disease and malabsorption, represents a profound failure of the medical system.

      Lubriderm-gluten-free?

      By Known1 · Posted

      I put lotion on every morning.  I also eat a banana every morning.  Sometimes I wash my hands prior to eating my banana and sometimes I do not.  I started noticing a reaction and couldn't figure out what it was from.  I found this thread regarding Lubriderm lotions.  (Actually there are several, but this is the most recent, which is why I am replying here.) This thread did not provide a definitive answer, so I contacted the manufacturer via their website.  Below is their exact reply.  I inquired about two of their products, Daily Moisturizer (in the white/blue bottle) and Advanced Therapy (in the white/pink bottle).  In short, Lubriderm IS NOT guaranteed to be gluten-free. --Start quote: Thank you for contacting Lubriderm®. We appreciate your interest in our products. Kenvue fully complies with all regulations on ingredients in the countries in which our products are sold. Wherever regulatory authorities have set limits on certain ingredients, our product formulations either meet those limits or contain a lesser amount of the regulated ingredient.

Although the gluten was not added to the Daily Moisture Lotion, we cannot guarantee that cross-contamination with gluten did not occur in the manufacturing process. In addition, some of the ingredients in the product may have been purchased by us from outside distributors, and we cannot say with absolute certainty that cross-contamination did not occur at their facilities.

      4.5 years into diagnosis, eating gluten-free and still struggling: would love support, tips, & stories

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hello @Heavenly Flower Welcome to the forum!  It will take time to master the diet and find what foods you can eat but I'd suggest what might make it easier is to keep a food diary.   You can write down what you ate, and then any symptoms that arise in a day.  Patterns do start to emerge. Also, it is worth bearing in mind that sometimes intolerances are temporary. I was temporarily dairy intolerant following diagnosis, and my gastroenterologist advised I should come off dairy for 3 weeks to see if it helped with painful lower abdominal bloating, and it did.  As I have healed I have been able to consume it again. If you get symptoms consuming 'pure oats' (gluten free oats, i.e. oats grown apart from and processed separately to gluten containing crops, andthe only oats we as coeliacs should be eating), the advice here in the UK is to stop eating them, then try them again in about six months.   Not to discourage you but it too me some years to be able to eat them without getting a sore stomach, but now so long as I don't overdo things, I can eat them every day.

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Heavenly Flower!  You're off to a good start but you can certainly branch out some. White rice is fairly devoid of nutrition. Baked potatoes with the skin (washed) would be a better choice for the starch unless, that is, you don't do well with members of the nightshade family. Yams or sweet potatoes would be even better because of the beta carotene. Do you have issues with eggs and dairy? How about fresh fish? What about fresh fruit? There are also non gluten alternative grains like quinoa, buckwheat (not related to wheat) groats and sorghum that are sold by companies like Bob's Red Mill that can be used for hot breakfast cereals. Gluten free oats is also an option, though some celiacs can't do oats because the protein in them (avenin) is similar enough to gluten to cause a reaction. Gluten is found only in wheat, barley and rye.

      I was just diagnosed with celiac disease after Thanksgiving. I can't imagine what all you had to do to get all the information you have, it just seems so overwhelming. I am still trying to figure it all out and don't know if the information I'm getting is correct. I have been eating only white rice and chicken breast, pork, or steak and fresh vegetables.  Gluten free pretzels and rice cakes to snack on. But that's about it cause I don't know what I can eat it's to overwhelming.  I don't even know what symptom to look for for possible cross contamination cause I also have microscopic Colitis which has the same symptoms as celiac disease. I'm hoping at least being on this forum I can get information that will help me figure it all out. Sorry I am not able to help you and hope you get the relief you are looking for.
