Oh Bev,

I have tears in my eyes thinking about lil' Angus (who I kind of consider "our" lil' Angus :P ) and what he may have gone through before you took him. I get so sad when I think about how mean some people can be--and to a defenseless little puppy. :(

The happy news is that he has a wonderful new mommy and daddy now, and lots of Celiacs for aunts and uncles :unsure::lol: I'm glad to hear that he likes the kitties--my Allo is a bit, should I say, set in his ways and a lot like Nikki's Lady Lucy! :D

Nikki - - Richard will NOT be pleased with you using mince MEAT out of a jar, you know he would demand hours of cooking/drinking/ and dog walkign to perfect the recipe........ :lol:

:rolleyes:

I actually DO make mincemeat from SCRATCH (grandma's recipe - I HATE the stuff but it's a once-a-year treat for my dad) B)

No more recipes for you ladies. I promise :huh:<_<

Indeed, Angus, why is Richard working??? :lol: I guess he has to count all the money and heinous stuff like that at this time of year......he doesn't even know we have two new canine members....

Heinous is right.

WHO LET the DOGS out(in?)?! (Woof-woof) :blink:

Pancakes? Can't find thread? what about pancakes?

Miss you all...being sucked back into the work vortexxxxxxaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I told my cat (Lady Lucy) that I have a new friend *Stinker* - she is not amused, she says I have betrayed her and is now sitting with her back to me :unsure:

My cat is a snob and treats me with the disgust she thinks I deserve <_<

:lol: Nikki - - we don't own cats, they own US, as you know.....:) I also had a cat named Lucy....it was Lucy Baines. I named her when I was 3. When I was a teenager, I asked my mom why her name was Lucy Baines.....and she said that when I was little, I loved President Johnson's daughter Lucy Baines Johnson......ha ha ha , it cracks me up for some reason. :P

Do you think if all the dogs and cats on this thread get together and bark/meow richard would hear it?

we must give it a try! :D and look, there is a hello from our Richard now, I see, but much too short......

oh poor Angus......I am so sad for these poor babies and the lives and suffering they endure. :( BUT LOOK NOW, he is with his REAL family....and he will forget those terrible memories in time...and will love his new kitty siblings, also. :) It brings my heart joy.

Yessss....me hungry too! I good boy....want treet! Like u all and your doggies and kitties too. My writing is getting bettah cuz my mama is a engish teachah.

WOOF! Woof!

Hi sTinkah- Thank u be my friend.

Stinker is jealous of Angus's rapidly improving writing skills. Try as I may, she just can't get it right, she also can't say her "th's" and pronounces them as an "f" sound, I was told this by her nanny years ago...... :lol:

RICHARD.....stay away from the vortex!!! stay away!! don't let them suck you in, we are MUCH more important than your silly job!

Pancakes....OMG....I used Bob's baking mix, added a bit of vanilla and a smidgen of xantham gum.....IT WAS PURE HEAVEN. I ate two batches - breakfast and then lunch - felt quite sick the entire day......but so worth it and will do it again......they were utter heaven, crispy on the outside, creamy fluff bits of heaven....(I make them thin) with melted butter and pure maple syrup.....OMG, I hope I don't make those for dinner tonight - but come to think of it, dinner is a better option than breakfast for them since you only have to feel sick for a few hours, then off to bed! :rolleyes:

It is so cold that my hands can hardly type. waiting for warmth in here......now must run the dogs through the stepford complex and it is freezing....... :huh:

Alas, - I fear you have succumbed (to the dreaded work vortex.... : :(

:lol: Nikki - - we don't own cats, they own US, as you know.....:) I also had a cat named Lucy....it was Lucy Baines.

Ain't that the truth!!! The term 'lady' was added to Lucy as she clearly thinks *she* is aristocracy and we (humans) are bumbling fools who should bow down to her :rolleyes:

oh poor Angus......I am so sad for these poor babies and the lives and suffering they endure. :( BUT LOOK NOW, he is with his REAL family....
Yes!! Thank goodness for that - what a lucky pup :)

Stinker clearly was a cockney in a past life.

She needs to recite this everyday to brush up on her pronounciation:

''Forty thousand feathers on a thrush's throat''

I actually bought quinoa today as I contemplate making the stuffing. I think I'm gonna do it. :ph34r:

No...I am NOT going to make my own sausage! i don't own any Snausages (the animals sausage come from...they look a little like Spaminals which is where we get Spam).

Actually, for twenty four hours I had my 7th graders believing that there was such a thing as a Spaminal :lol: :lol: :lol::P

OK- This is a very irreverent website Open Original Shared Link but look at the Kirsten Dunst article. It would be interesting if it turned she had Celiac?????????

Also, for a REALLY good laugh (ver very very irreverent- not for the easily offended) scroll down to the Justin Timberlake article. I haven't laughed that hard in a LONG time, but, uhm, it's not what I want for Christmas :ph34r:

I'm going to hijack this thread briefly :ph34r: to say that years ago when my husband got his dog (a long and hysterical story in itself) he went home with the pup and told his mom he was naming the dog Angus (after Angus Young) and his mom vetoed it reminding him of the name he'd always said he'd name a dog....Ask'm.

What's your dog's name?

(shrug) Ask'm

(person to dog) What's your name?

(Ask'm) Woof!

Now my son has a stuffed puppy named Guess.

Reminds me of the other day. Hubby was sending my computer in to be fixed and asked me what key was broken. I said, "Y." He started telling me about the paperwork and asked me again ... I said, "Y" ... he got frustrated and went on about how he was sending it in to be fixed, etc. ... I finally caught on and told him the "Y" key was broken!

That's awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love the name Guess...

What's your dogs name?

Guess.

Uhm.. Fido?

Spot?

Jake?

No, Guess! :angry:

But I am guessing! :blink:

No, GUESS. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

:lol: That's exactly the conversation the nurse had with Walker when he came in to meet Ty when Ty was born. It was especially funny because he was only three years old, but you could tell he wanted to roll his eyes and say, "Jeez lady. What's wrong with you?"

The Y key. It's next to the "any" key. :lol:

...if you build it they will come :) "Field of Dreams"

You will be the belle of the ball, the Queen of Quinoa, The Sultan of Stuffing - IF you put this on your Christmas table.

DO NOT USE SNAUSAGES to make this! I used Jenny-O smoked Turkey sausage (found at Wal*Mart)

Good luck and Good Eats :D

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a gluten-free Christmas!

SPAMINALS!!! :lol: so THAT's where snausages come from! you are a woman after my own heart, making your 7th graders believe that such a thing exists.....that is exactly a teaching strategy I would employ :lol:

HI RICHARD! Nice to see you.......aren't you proud of us? homemade marshmallows, snausage rolls, Mince pies, and Bev is even going to attempt the Sir Richard's blah blah blah Dingo Quinoa Stuffing? :rolleyes:

Hi Linda! Please, hijack away! We are a small but loony group here and always welcome interlopers. :)

Susan, what kind of dogs are the dingoes? I used to have a blue heeler/terrier cross who I thought was beautiful and people who saw him and Ask'm together would tell my husband, "Oh what a beautiful dog!...(then looking at me and Scout) Your dog is interesting, too." <_< People thought he was dingoey. He had the same ears as your dogs.

A few weeks ago I was volunteering at my son's grade 3/4 class. One of the kids asked how I knew how to spell so many big words. I told him that I was ridiculously smart, and not only did I have a high school diploma, but I went to community college as well. A different boy said, "Are you smarter than Mrs. H?" I told him I was smart enough not to be a teacher. Mrs. H. overheard and started laughing. The boy accused me of insulting her, and I said I meant I was smart enough to know that I could handle a classroom for a couple of hours a day once a month and that was it. :blink:

Homemade marshmallows? :huh:

Do you go out and hunt the elusive Althaea officinalis (marshmallow plant) or do you have a Stay-Puffinator contraption in your basement?

Snausage rolls? The picture looks yummy.

Bev is truly gonna be a rock star (Hell's Belle :) ) on Christmas once she presents "Sir Richard's blah blah blah Dingo Quinoa Stuffing?" (with a big flourish and much fanfare)

You ladies are just being coy. I know you are all multi-talented individuals who can star at anything you choose. Step up to the plate on this stuffing - you won't regret it B)

I have my holiday cooking schedule in place (sorry not on Food Network this year ;) )

I made a pecan pie and and apple pie today. Tomorrow is prep time for the stuffing (chopping/measuring) cookies for Santa (he's gluten-free too!) and a coffee cake for Christmas morn. Monday is stuffing assemblage and green bean casserole and the off to my inlaws for a morning snack and then to my folks for the big 2 turkey feast (no I'm not one of them).

...and though it's been said, many times, many ways...Mer-ry Christ-maaaAAAs to you (all)...

Happy Holidays to all you Wal*Mart shoppers ;)

      He is. Which makes everything even more difficult. I’m not a believer in “staying for the kids” but I have nowhere to go and it’s not just me, it’s me plus my babies. We live in a beautiful place, lots of land in the country and me and the kids love the place we’ve called home for their entire lives. But Im seeing that he’ll never change, that my kids deserve a happy healthy Momma, and that staying in this as is will be the early death of me. Then I look at the scars covering my entire body…this disease and the chronic stress I’ve been enduring for years that tell me I’m no longer beautiful and no one will ever look at me with interest again. I try self care, try to give myself grace so I can just start loving myself enough to gain strength but the slightest sparkle in my eye and skip in my step attracts his wrath and it all comes crashing ten fold. Life is just absolutely railing me from every single direction leaving me wanting to wave that white flag bc I don’t feel like there’s much hope no matter what happens.

      Hi, I was recently diagnosed with Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis after years of suffering without answers. I lost my mind. I lost my job. I lost so much time. I lost Me. Conventional doctors are opulent come near me and the one who did sat across the room, misdiagnosed me, pumped me full of steroids which collapsed my entire hip for 6 months. So without answers I began my holistic journey. Fast forward a couple of years and still struggling with a mysterious whole body itchy, crawling “skin hell”, perfect teeth now deteriorating, thick hair now thinning rapidly and no more than a day or 2 at most relief….An acquaintance opened up a functional medicine practice. Cash only, I found a way. Within a month tests clearly showing my off the charts gluten allergy/sensitivity as well as the depletion of vital nutrients due to leaky gut and intestinal damage. dermatitis herpetiformis was more than likely what I was experiencing with my skin. I was happy. I thought this is easy, eat healthy Whole Foods, follow the diet restrictions and I finally get to heal and feel confident and like myself again very soon! 😔 Supplements are very pricey but I got them and began my healing. Which leads to the other major issue: not working, stay at home Mom of young kids, entirely financially dependent on my man of 7 plus years. He’s never been supportive of anything I’ve ever done or been thru. He controls everything. I’m not given much money ever at a time and when he does leave money it’s only enough to possibly get gas. His excuse is that I’ll spend it on other things. So my “allowance” is inconsistent and has conditions. He withholds money from me as punishment for anything he wants. Since being diagnosed, he’s gained a new control tactic to use as punishment. He now is in control of when I get to eat. He asked for proof of my diagnosis and diet bc he said I made it up just to be able to eat expensive organic foods. Then after I sent him my file from my doctor he then said she wasn’t a real doctor. 😡. I go days upon days starving, sometimes breaking down and eating things I shouldn’t bc I’m so sick then I pay horribly while he gets annoyed and angry bc I’m not keeping up with all the duties I’m supposed to be doing. His abuse turns full on when I’m down and it’s in these desperate times when I need his support and care the most that I’m punished with silence, being starved, ignored, belittled. He will create more of a mess just bc I’m unable to get up and clean so that when I am better, I’m so overwhelmed with chores to catch up that the stress causes me to go right back into a flare from hell and the cycle repeats. I’m punished for being sick. I’m belittled for starving and asking for healthy clean water. I’m purposely left out of his life. He won’t even tell me he’s going to the grocery or to get dinner bc he doesn’t want me to ask him for anything. I have no one. I have nothing. Im not better. My supplements ran out and I desperately need Vitamin D3 and a methylated B complex at the very minimal just to function….he stares at me blankly…no, a slight smirk, no words. He’s happiest when im miserable and I am miserable.  this is so long and im condensing as much as I can but this situation is so complicated and disgusting. And it’s currently my life. The “IT” girl, the healthy, beautiful, perfect skin, perfect teeth, thick and curly locks for days, creative and talented IT girl….now I won’t even leave this house bc Im ashamed of what this has dont to my body, my skin. Im disgusted. The stress is keeping me from healing and I think he knows that and that’s why he continues to keep me in that state. He doesn’t want me confident or successful. He doesn’t want me healed and healthy bc then how would he put the blame of all his problems on me? This journey has been hell and I’ve been in Hell before. I’ve been killed by an ex, I’ve been raped, robbed, held hostage, abused beyond nightmares but the cruelty I’ve experienced from him bc of this disease is the coldest I’ve ever experienced. I’ve wanted to give up. Starving and in tears, desperate…I found a local food pantry in our small town so I reached out just saying I had Celiac and was on hard times. This woman is blessing me daily with prepared gluten free meals, donations, educational info, people who know this disease and how they manage life and the blessings just keep coming. But it’s overwhelming and I feel like I don’t deserve it at all. He just glared and I know he’s going to sabotage it somehow. I don’t even know what to do anymore. I’m so broken and just want peace and healing.

      @Colleen H   I am just curious,  when you were tested for coeliac disease, did the doctors find out if you had any deficiencies? Sometimes muscle pain can be caused by certain deficiencies, for example, magnesium, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium.   Might be worth looking into having some more tests.  Pins and needles can be neuropathy, again caused by deficiencies, such as iron and B12,  which can be reversed if these deficiencies are addressed. In the UK where I live we are usually only tested for iron, B12 and vitamin D deficiencies at diagnosis.   I was very iron anemic and supplementation made a big difference.  B12 was low normal, but in other countries the UK's low normal would be considered a deficiency.  My vitamin D was low normal, and I've been supplementing ever since (when I remember to take it!) My pins and needles definitely started to improve when my known deficiencies were addressed.  My nutritionist also gave me a broad spectrum supplement which really helped, because I suspect I wasn't just deficient in what I mention above but in many other vitamins and minerals.  But a word of warning, don't take iron unless blood tests reveal you actually need it, and if you are taking it your levels must be regularly monitored because too much can make you ill.  (And if you are currently taking iron, that might actually be making your stomach sore - it did mine, so my GP changed my iron supplementation to a gentler form, ferrous gluconate). Lastly, have you been trying to take anything to lessen the pain in your gut?  I get a sore stomach periodically, usually when I've had too much rich food, or when I have had to take an aspirin or certain antibiotics, or after glutening.  When this happens, I take for just a few days a small daily dose of OTC omeprazole.  I also follow a reflux or gastritis diet. There are lots online but the common denominators to these diets is you need to cut out caffeine, alcohol, rich, spicy, acidic food etc and eat small regularly spaced meals.   When I get a sore stomach, I also find it helpful to drink lots of water.  I also find hot water with a few slices of ginger very soothing to sip, or camomile tea.  A wedge pillow at night is good for reflux. Also,  best not to eat a meal 2-3 hours before going to bed. If the stomach pain is getting worse, though, it would be wise to see the doctor again. I hope some of this helps. Cristiana

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .
