Doesn't everyone carry a dead member of the weasel family with them?

Remember last Nov, someone dumped a 3 ft long alligator on a street here? Here is the newest alligator siting:

Before I begin...all hail Kween Karen!!...Irish bows elegantly as she can, given her kranky knees...

I'm incredibly late to this conversation--saw the invitation to join on the song game post just now --thanks ever so much!! :) -- (I see this thread began in 2006--this must be a record of some kind?? yes??) and I tried desperately to read the last 50 or so entries to catch up (whew!) and follow the discussion (which sometimes requires a GPS system) and all I can add right now is...

Our silly pup Gracie was distraught at our being gone for oh, all of an hour?-- and she buzz-sawwed her way through most of a half cord of firewood...leaving us a year's supply of toothpicks strewn throughout the entire house :lol: ----- and then, for reasons only known to a labrador, (perhaps to polish her teeth after all that chewing??)....

ate some Huggies dryer sheets ....and they came out nearly INTACT --with a gentle tug from Mom--gradually ---over the next few days. The vet (who continued to laugh at her antics for years after that one) said "No worries--they won't harm her and she'll be clean as a whistle, and with no static cling, inside and out." :lol:

      makes sense. sometimes you learn one path and never question it until you see someone take a different path

      Interesting I read that toasted kasha groats have nutty flavor which I thought like oatmeal with banana and yogurt. Yes quinoa I have for dinner looking to switch oatmeal to buckwheat for breakfast. I have to look into amaranth 
    • Aretaeus Cappadocia
      I've never tried bananas or yogurt with kasha. It would probably work but in my mind I think of kasha as being on the savory side so I always add butter, peanut butter, or shredded cheddar cheese. Next time I make it I will try yogurt and banana to see for myself. Amaranth has a touch of sweet and I like to pair it with fruit. Quinoa is more neutral. I eat it plain, like rice, with chicken stock or other savory things, or with coconut milk. Since coconut milk works, I would think yogurt would work (with the quinoa). I went to the link you posted. I really don't know why they rinse the kasha. I've eaten it for decades and never rinsed it. Other than that, her recipe seems fine (that is, add the buckwheat with the water, rather than wait until the water is boiling). She does say something that I forgot: you want to get roasted/toasted buckwheat or you will need to toast it yourself. I've never tried buckwheat flakes. One potential issue with flakes is that there are more processing steps and as a rule of thumb, every processing step is another opportunity for cross-contamination. I have tried something that was a finer grind of the buckwheat than the whole/coarse and I didn't like it as much. But, maybe that was simply because it wasn't "normal" to me, I don't know.
    • xxnonamexx
      The basic seems more like oatmeal. You can also add yogurt banana to it like oatmeal right. I see rinsing as first step in basic recipes like this one https://busycooks.com/how-to-cook-toasted-buckwheat-groats-kasha/ I don't understand why since kasha is toasted and not raw. What about buckwheat flake cereal or is this better to go with.

      Celiac disease can have neurological associations, but the better-described ones include gluten ataxia, peripheral neuropathy, headaches or migraine, seizures, cognitive symptoms, and, rarely, cerebral calcifications or white-matter changes. Some studies and case reports describe brain white-matter lesions in people with celiac disease, but these are not specific to celiac disease and can have many other explanations. A frontal lobe lesion could mean many different things depending on the exact wording of the report: a white-matter spot, inflammation, demyelination, a small old stroke, migraine-related change, infection, trauma, vascular change, seizure-related change, tumor-like lesion, artifact, or something that resolved on repeat imaging. The word “transient” usually means it changed or disappeared, which can happen with some inflammatory, seizure-related, migraine-related, vascular, or imaging-artifact situations.  Hopefully they will find nothing serious.
