I did math in my head all the way.

Would that work for you?

Oh, maaaaa gaaaaaaaawwwwd.......... :wacko:

Only Jess. . . . . ...... . :lol:

Well, the mechanic at the dealership apparently took the audio fuse out of the panel (just as we had done to make sure it simply hadn't blown), and stuck it back in.....and the radio worked.

:huh:

But also :):)

As it cost nothing.

That MIL o' mine is screwin' with my head. . . . . . . . ...

Patti, I didn't post the chocolate fudge recipe. I used the recipe off the marshmallow cream jar except I used coconut milk for the milk, and a mix of dark chocolate and unsweetened chocolate for the flavor (about half of each). I thought it turned out more 'adult' (less sweet) than regular fudge.

JNBunnie1 Community Regular
Yup that would be known as dinner out :D

Thanks for all the birthday wishes Psillies :)

Happy birthday!!!

Hey, who's that guy you keep putting pictures of in your avatar?

:blink:

Ok....please tell me it's the Fantasy Fudge Recipe on the Kraft Marshmallow Cream, cause that's the kind I have. :lol: The mix of dark and unsweetened chocolate was the perfect taste (according to him). I'm gonna make it with almond milk--that should work--you think?

That guy is George Eads :wub: He plays Nick Stokes on CSI:Crime Scene Investigation.

I'm sure that's what I used. How many companies make marshmallow cream with a recipe on it?

I was planning on retrying it with almond milk, but all my chocolate had milk in it anyway, so I didn't.

I'm sure it will work, it just takes longer to get to 238 degrees. You might also cut the butter in half, and add that much more volume in milk (to account for the protein in butter that isn't in any of the substitutes).

Thanks again for all the birthday wishes Psillies :) We went out for dinner tonight and I had a Caesar Salad and Baked Salmon with Rice Pilaf. Peter had a Steak and Baker. No dessert for either of us as neither of us needed it. It's been a good day and I don't feel any older than I did yesterday :lol:

Mornin', gang!

Here, too! Cold and crisp. Just picked up the Ripper a new pair o' high-tech snowshoes, a great post-Christmas deal. So great, in fact, that I was contemplating getting a pair for DD, but the act of snowshoeing is apparently excruciatingly uncool. Who'd 'a thunk? Thank gawd I now have a teenaged daughter who can keep me abreast of such social truths. Cross-country skiing? Cool. Ski-boarding? UBER-cool. Snowshoes are.....well........kinda dumb-looking, one supposes .. . .... . ....

Don't get it. Skis look dumber.

:huh::lol:

When on earth is Geeah-nut comin' back?

Where in hell is Soooozie?

nikki-uk Enthusiast

SNOW SHOES!!!!! Good find Em

When on earth is Geeah-nut comin' back?

Where in hell is Soooozie?

Hope all the psillies are ok :unsure:

.....preparing myself mentally for a double Sven tomorrow,....my poor body will be screaming ''WHAAAAT's happening to ME?!?! :o ''

The cats jumped for joy as at last they finally had some fish today instead of Turkey!!!! :D

Bloomin' cold here, frosty, clear and the poor boiler really is struggling now <must get on to them Mon>

      so do you have celiac or not? 🤔 why are your vision issues undiagnosed? 😢 what does your ophthalmologist say?  do you have a serious vit A deficiency? what do you take for it? how long have you had celiac disease and how long did  it take to get a diagnosis?   if you are legally blind there are adaptive devices that will help you. I have vision difficulties as well but did not qualify (at least not yet)   do you have a vit A deficiency? why are you undiagnosed? what does your ophthalmologist say? I have a retinal specialist and he tells me my eye condition can not be fixed- until/unless it gets to the point of where surgery is safer since the surgery can leave me actually blind... so you want to wait til it gets really bad 🤪     I hope you find what works for you.    PS   the medication I started at the same time as the gluten challenge is obvious from the condition it's trying to treat. you can google it 😉 it is not an for any auto immune condition.   
    • knitty kitty
      @catnapt,  I apologize.  Obviously I've confused you with someone else.  I have vision problems due to undiagnosed Celiac complications.  Being legally blind, y'all look the same from here.   You still have not said which new medication you started taking.  Parathyroid disorders can affect antibody production.  Bone Loss Correlated with Parathyroid Hormone Levels in Adult Celiac Patients https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36619734/ Effect of vitamin B1 supplementation on bone turnover markers in adults: an exploratory single-arm pilot study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12075007/

      during the gluten challenge I did not consume any wheat germ   the wheat germ is TOASTED - it's the only way it is sold now afiak doesn't matter I consume vast amounts of lectin containing foods PROPERLY prepared and have for well over a decade. They do not bother me in the least.    no anemia however the endo who ordered the celiac panel is the one who suggested the 2 week gluten challenge of eating at least 2 slices of bread per day or a serving of pasta- ALSO put me on a new drug at the same time (not a good idea)  I ate 4 slices because they were thin, or 2 English muffins, and just once some lasagna that someone else made since I stopped eating wheat pasta years ago. The English muffins caused some of the worst symptoms but that pc of lasagna almost killed me ( not literally but the pain was extreme) during those 12 days there were at least 3 times I considered going to Urgent Care.   This entire process was a waste of time TBH due to being on that new drug at the exact same time. it is impossible to tell if the drug I am taking for the possible renal calcium leak is working or not- given the dramatic response to the gluten challenge and resulting nausea (no vomiting) and eventually a loss of appetite and lower intake of foods so now I have a dangerously low potassium level   I don't have a simple case of celiac or no- I have an extremely complicated case with multiple variables I am seeing an endocrinologist for a problem with the calcium sensing glands - that system is very complicated and she has been unable to give me a firm diagnosis after many tests with confusing and often alarming results. She also appears to be inexperienced and unsure of herself. but I don't have the luxury of finding a new endo due to multiple issues of insurance, lack of drs in my area, money and transportation. so I'm stuck with her At least she hasn't given up    in any case I can assure you that lectins are not and never were the problem. I know they are a favorite villain in some circles to point to, but I have ZERO symptoms from my NORMAL diet which DOES NOT contain gluten. The longer I went without bread or foods with wheat like raisin bran cereal, the better I have felt. my body had been telling me for several years that wheat was the problem- or maybe specifically gluten, that remains to be seen- and stopping eating it was the best thing I could have done   I almost had unnecessary MAJOR SURGERY due to joint pain that I ONLY have if I am eating bread or related products I assumed it was the refined grains - never really suspected gluten but it does not matter I won't put that poison in my body ever again not that it is literally poison but it is def toxic to me

      @catnapt,  I'm sorry you're having such a rough time.   How much wheat germ and how much gluten were you eating? Lectins in beans can be broken down by pressure cooking them.  Do you pressure cook your beans?  Were you pressure cooking your wheat germ? What drugs are you taking?  Some immunosuppressive drugs affect IgA production.  Do you have anemia?
    • catnapt
      oops my gluten challenge was only 12 days It started Jan 21s and ended Feb 1st   worst 12 days of my life   Does not help that I also started on a thiazide-like drug for rule in/out renal calcium leak at the exact same time No clue if that could have been symptoms worse 🤔
