I wasn't sure where to post this topic but just feel very proud of my 17 year old daughter. My birthday was yesterday and we are celebrating tomorrow with a cook out. She was concerned about a birthday cake and I told her I didn't need one. She decided on her own that I definately needed one and made me a pamela's chocolate cake for tomorrow. :) The kitchen smells yummy and no matter what it will be the best cake I've tasted!

I know the feeling and it can't be beat. BTW, Pamela's chocolate cake is wonderful. :)

I don't know if I would be able to wait on that cake. I would be sitting at the table at midnight with fork in hand. :D

You are very lucky to have such a sweet kid, give her an extra big chocolatey hug tommorrow.

Happy belated too and enjoy the cookout.

Happy Birthday. You daughter is very thoughtful.

I just had my 50th birthday and had to make my own birthday cake. Hubby just didn't feel like he could and my 12 year old triplets are only just starting to cook the odd thing. The 20 year was away but if she had been around my guess is she would have made the cake.

It's funny how small kindnesses like a birthday cake can mean so much to us.

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange.

      Celiac disease symptoms

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly...

      No I haven't had one since 2021. I rarely have more than 1 per week.

      Sorry, I see that now as I reread your original post. You say you have hemorrhoids "only once a week" now. When I develop hemorrhoids, which is once every few years now, it generally takes 3-4 days for healing to take place. So, it doesn't seem like you could have much relief time between episodes if you have them weekly. Have you had a lower GI scoping done...

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.
