Collette? Do you think you can sub fig and pear preserves and lessen the sugar and get the same effect or taste? We have fresh figs all summer (when the birds don't get them).

This sounds way toooo good.

Another great sounding recipe. I'm OK with dairy but can't tolerate rice,soy or almond milk. What would work best with this recipe, whole milk, 2%, 1%, 1/2 and 1/2, cream?

You could totally add BUTTER or any other dairy milk I think 2% would be great, if you can tolerate it!! :)

I think if you even caramelized the pears & figs in butter would be YUM ;) lol

I am dairy & soy free so that is where my head is at when I write these up. And trying to help other frustrated cooks around too.

This sounds really yummy. We had your Chicken with Raspberry wine sauce. I doubled the sauce and then cooked fresh carrots until bright, and served the whole thing. Even the 6 year old liked it. Thanks.

I am really amazed how recently you became gluten free.

Thanks. I have only recently been back on dairy. Thank goodness, I missed my decaf lattes. With my carageenan sensitivity I couldn't go for the soy latte alternative. Plain herbal tea just isn't the same. LOL

It's funny, I'm fine being gluten free (it helps that I love to cook) but hated having to be dairy free. I missed my lattes and butter. I didn't miss cheese as much because I was using sheep and goat cheese instead and I really like them, actually prefer them for some cooking applications.

You know I had no idea about Carageenan until a week ago and I can't believe the difference I am feeling now I went off it myself! :)

I tried Soy last night and I had no reaction whatsoever.... baby steps right!

Enjoy those lattes! B)

      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 The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one.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.
