You are putting on your anti-wrinkle cream that costs $80.00 for a very thin tube, and you are wondering "Man, this stuff goes pretty fast......", and your 8 yr old daughter comes in the room and says to you, "Is that for your face? I have been using it for my hands......." :o

How about yesterday I tried a new halibut recipe and after I was done cooking it, the platter fell on the floor. At the table my son accidentally spilled his milk of the fish that I managed to save.

Just one of those days. :P

I think I did something similar once... with all my mother's super-expensive waterproof makeup. Apparently, cleaning everything afterwards was a nightmare.

When you are reading a text book about things you already know and it doesn't make sense.

The biscuits I made then stuck to trays. ( I managed to get them off ok in the end)

When I was cleaning my mess I started to fill up the sink, put the detergent in and realised no bubbles were forming- I had left the plug hole out.

I was watching Ellen the other day, and she had a video of a little girl that had been using her mom's chapstick on the cat's butt! :P

OMGosh! I just about sprayed my coffee all over the 'puter screen with that one!! ROFLMBO!

Once, when my son was about 2 years old, he got into a NEW bag of flour while I was in the bathroom. I had flour ALL over my kitchen and trailed into the living room and hallway. We called him flour-boy for months after that. I was spitting mad at the time, but had enough presence of mind to video tape it for future laughs!!

You know you're having a bad day when your dog has the big D, you are talking on the phone to Metta when you discover it, you wash her -- twice, because she has it while you're washing her, then the mailman comes and you answer the door in your husband's wet, poopy Sponge-Bob Square Pants pajama bottoms and a T-shirt!!! :lol:

Karen -- gotta love Rhiannon!!!!! You don't need wrinkle cream anyway!

Me and my best friend when I was four decided we were going to wash her mom's car.... with brillo pads!

My boyfriend when he was 3ish grabbed a hold of a table cloth on someone else's table on his way out of a restraunt.. cleared the whole table.

We were bad kids! :lol:

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
