So What Drinks Can I Enjoy?

I was talking to the DH yesterday about him missing going out to Don Pablos (mexican restaurant) and really just wanting their Sopapillas (sp?) which are (were for me) tasty fried tortillas with a butter/honey sauce and powdered sugar. I told him maybe we could still go out and have drinks and he could have them on the side.

I'd really like to be able to enjoy some adult beverages so what is safe for me to enjoy? I'm a real fan of rum and martini drinks and margaritas. Obviously mixes should be avoided but anyone have any good favorites?

(I am thinking plastic cup from the other discussion....I've seen those 3 tubs they use....ick!)

My favorite is the mojito. In fact we have them every Monday.

It's just rum, club soda, lime, sugar, and mint.

Outback has some gluten-free mixed drinks on their menu. My favorite there is the No Bull Kiwirita (Margarita made with red bull!) :D

Margaritas are usually ok, especially at mexican places where they mix their own. I was at one place that added beer to theirs, though, so now I always ask about that. I get some strange looks because no one adds beer to margaritas! Somehow I stumbled on the only place in the country that does it.

If you want to make them at home, here's a delicious recipe that doesn't use a mix. I get asked for the recipe every time I make these.

-4 shots tequila

-2 shots triple sec

-1 can frozen limade

-some frozen strawberries

-ice

Blend it up and enjoy!

Thanks! I LOVE mojitos so I'm happy to hear they are safe! I'm just starting to cook at home I think if I throw margaritas in the mix I might not be able to function too well! :P

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.
