Ew on the solder fumes :screwnoseup:, glad you checked in :D

:lol: Mygawd....... . . . couldn't fer the life o' me get the emoticon you were suggesting, Nik. Kept thinking it was "screwno soup"... ... what in hell? Is this an English creamed broth we dunno about over here? :huh::lol:

I know!!!!

Double decker buses!! :lol: .....trust me.....glamorous it ain't!

Do you Yanks not have DD buses anywhere down there for public transport? We've got a few of them here in Ottawa, likely for touristy forays. . . .....yep, no glamour. . . just some height that makes my bum crinkle when I look out the window and down . . . ...

Must make pumpkin chocolate chip cookies.

Must book ticket to London.

Must book ticket to London to make bring pumpkin chocolate chip cookies to Nikki and her kittehs and chillin's.

Don't you know you CANNOT post an irresistible recipe and cheap plane tickets on this thread as I become an obsessed lunatic. After looking at flights on Lufthansa I must now go to the store to buy pumpkin and chocolate chips. The power of chocolate (and travel) compels me. :D

Been thinking about laura- Hope she's done, home, and warm and toasty in bed with her wee fawn Sammy. She's so cute I want to eat her up (Sammy, not Laura although Laura is quite beautiful! ) :wub:

All the growth right now is in her legs - its so funny - she's like a fawn!!!!

I love that! They leap about like lamb chops!!!!!!!!

Ptaum- So happy to hear from you! Stay away from fuming soldiers though ;) (I have a very difficult time using the ;) emoticon as it reeks of sarcasm now)!

So happy you are jobful and feeling better!!!!!!! :D:wub:

Hi Sillies, it's hump day!

Excellent idea Jess......whilst visiting with Nikki and her phabulous family (and kittehs) I am thinking we can hunt down various members of the royal family, Hugh Grant and Colin Firth, have tea and scones (and everything Tel bakes up :lol:) ride double decker buses, chat with the little people under Nikki's stairs.....and that's just for starters!!!

Tee hee- Julie said hump (Nikkieigh- Hump Day is wednesday as in the hump in the middle of the week- once you get past it you can see the weekend coming and it's all downhill.

Julie- I know you haven't asked me to come with you but I feel that I must provide some supervision and chaperoning if you are to be meeting princes, Hugh and Colin. Really- it's in your own best interest! :P

I'm doing a little better- took my dad out to lunch today. I think it made his day (it is rainy and BRRR! Cold here today). He can't drive in the rain so it got him out of the house. He's so funny. He bought a North face fleece to cheer himself up- he's 78 and wears Usher cologne!!!!!!!! Wackl! :D:wacko:

...I must think of a way of adjusting the recipe...... we don't have tapioca starch here ..... usually our gluten-free flours are 'all purpose' and are a mix of :unsure: ....... I dunno what flours :blink:

Tel WILL find a way :lol:

Bev!!.....glad you got out with your Dad :) ...mygawd!, Tel wanted a North Face fleece for our upcoming Scottish jaunt.....ridiculous prices :o ...so he settled for a 'Berghaus' fleece.

Go to the thread I linked to and see my post at the end--I substituted half potato starch and half corn starch cuz tapioca doesn't like me. :P

"Tel will find a way"--reminds me of "Love Will Find a Way" :lol: --love that song......

I was just going to explain Hump Day to ya Nick, but I see the Beeve came to the rescue :D

And whot's this?!?! Double Decker buses aint glamorous?!?!?! Say it isn't so :lol: Um, I watched The Bachelor last season with Brit Matt Grant :ph34r: and they rode one through London when they went home to meet the parents, looked quite fun, but I'll take your word for it.

Hump day!! (thanks Bee)

...mygawd!, Tel wanted a North Face fleece for our upcoming Scottish jaunt.....ridiculous prices ...so he settled for a 'Berghaus' fleece.

Tel always finds a way :lol: I am thinking he would just sub equal amounts of the flour blend he uses in place of the white rice flour and tapioca starch (and possibly the xanthan gum if the blend doesn't have that in it?).

Another Scottish jaunt?!?!?! Fab!!!!! I haven't even had ONE Scottish jaunt :jealousface: I must get meself to bonnie Scotland!!!!!!!

Judy, I meant to comment on yer heinous insurance nightmare. . .yer post came right in the middle of my traumatic emotiquota discovery.. .. .. .. I'm SO sorry that so many of you guys in the States have to go through this to access the health care that should just rightfully be yours. Very stressful, I'm sure. . . . .I do hope that the next president has this serious American problem at the top of his "to do" list .. . . . . :(

My sympathies, Judy. I used to have a 2nd job as a pharmacy tech. Had to call insurance companies all the time. And when you can't resolve an issue, who does the customer b!tch at?

Jewels " I hauve a Faimos frend in the US. She is an Aktris, I think she has seliac but does not mind being thin"

Then later " I am making a Necklace For I think Terri Hatcher

Terri Hatcher wrote a book" Burnt Toast"

Sorry for being away so long " I have been trying to learn how to bake a cake, what a disaster" .

If I am reading this right, she is quoting her friend, jewelchic.

BTW........do you think all her wacky videos are clues?

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.
    • Aretaeus Cappadocia
      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.
    • HectorConvector
      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.
    • Aretaeus Cappadocia
      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy! Original recipe is here, if you want to see photos: mina.co/blogs/recipes/zaalouk-moroccan-eggplant-salad

      I checked consumer labs that I'm a member of they independently check products for safely and claims the wolfs was rated great and bobs redmill buckwheat cereal. Ultra low gotten no dangerous levels of arsenic heavy metals, mold, yeast etc. plus they mention to refrigerate. I wonder if the raw buckwheat they rinse bc it's not toasted like kasha. Toasted removes the grassy taste I have to try the one you mentioned. I also bought Qia which is a quinoa mixed got great reviews.
