Something Martha Steward Did

Recommended Posts

bluejeangirl Contributor

I just wanted to mention last week I was watching Martha Steward and she was demonstrating how to clean your kitchen and appliances. When she came to the coffee grinder she showed how you just put a slice of bread in it and run it for a few seconds and it cleans the inside by sort of wiping it clean. So warning now you can't just go over to the neighbors for coffee thinking your safe.

I sometimes feel like I'm nosey because I have to ask so many questions. :P

And we wonder where our mystery glutenings come from .... :blink: ... people who use bread to clean their kitchen with!!

My BIL babysat our kids last weekend ... when I opened the freezer yesterday, there's a frozen pizza in there!! Yikes, time to turn the self-cleaner on in the oven and do a scrub down around here ... no telling where there are crumbs!

OMG I had completely forgotten about the Chickenman show. It was on Detroit rock stations in the morning when I walked to school in the mid 60's. Is that the one you are referring to?

Richard love the new "do". I found the pensive stare riveting. :lol:

We need to mail Martha and tell her she has inspired a new expression, "this is NOT a good thing".

Random thought here (what else :rolleyes: )

I was just imagining Martha on Iron Chef...I can see her futzing around with her apron telling the story of the origins of the great pagan feast she is about to prepare - and then time is up. She has to be escorted from the stage because she attempts to assault Alton Brown with the "mystery ingredient". She ends up back in prison because the assault conviction violates the the terms of her probation...we can dream can't we? :P

oh dear gaaaaawd.....someone flog that chickenman with a bread-cleansed coffee grinder :P

I beg your pardon, but please note the beard. Said "chicken" is actually a turkey. (in honor of TURKEY day - I'm not quite as random as you might think :P ) Flog ON!

BTW - Who actually cleans their coffee grinder anyway?

mommida Enthusiast

Who cleans their coffee grinders? Obviously Martha Stewart and Martha wannabes do. This must be stopped! Women are starting to run amok trying to turn themselves into perfect hostesses. What th *&!

That's the one! Believe it or not, in hubby's record collection we have an LP of Chickenman ... the first episode where he becomes Chickenman! It's hysterical. :lol::lol:

Richard, chicken, turkey ... hard to tell the difference when a grown man is dressed as poultry.

since you brought up alton brown, he's the one that suggested you should clean out your meat grinder with, you guessed it, bread! I guess I should just use gluten-free bread?!?!

now, really, I'd LOVE to see Alton do an eposode on gluten-free cooking and the chemistry behind our alternative starches an the advantages of guar gum vs xantham.

NOOOOOO, Not Alton too! :blink::(

Some of have emailed GOOD EATS and asked for just such a show.

Have at it Open Original Shared Link

I can't believe Alton would do such a thing :unsure:

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: you guys are too funny.

I did watch Altons show earlier this week on how to make the perfect gravey. He says the only way is with FLOUR cough cough. I guess some of the vegetable sources make you gravey clear and not as appealing.

Well Alton never is sitting on the toilee for 2 hrs. (we can be so rude)

Perhaps he IS, but hasn't figured out WHY yet...

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      I am new here but celiac disease is not new to me. I was diagnosed with it at age 60. At the time I weighed a whopping 89 pounds. I was so ignorant to celiac so I buried myself in learning all about it and looking for food I could eat. I lost so much weight and stayed sick all the time. So to combat the sickness I was give all sorts of meds for loose bowels and vomiting. All that just made me sicker. Eventually I chucked it all and went back to eating like I had all my life. Now I am from the south and biscuits and gravy are a big part of our food, as are breaded foods, pasta, and sandwich bread. Through the years I would try to do the gluten free thing again and am doing it now. It has not helped any. Within and hour of eating I have to run to the bathroom. I am now 75 and am wondering if I should just forget it and eat what I like, take Immodium and live the best I can. I cannot eat before going anywhere for fear of embarrassing myself. Family and church dinners are out of the question unless I eat and run straight home. I am so frustrated I just want to sit down and cry or throw something. Does everyone go through all this?

      Oh yes I can understand the tiredness after going threw all that, must be exhausting especially on the mind I have high aniexty so I can understand that , I wish there more easier ways for people to get help , I had a MRI on my spine some years ago without anything it was really quick and no prep , I understand the need for  them to see better with the bowel ,but you think they would use something a little less traumatic  for ibd sufferers on the bowels by now ,I hope your feeling better today 🙏
