I Found My Cookbooks!

Hey everyone,

The saga of the missing cookbooks is finally over! :D

I haven't posted much in the last few months because, well, I didn't have much to talk about since I wasn't cooking.

After the move, it didn't matter what boxes I unpacked, I COULD NOT find ANY of my gluten-free cookbooks.

Today, in my toddler's room, I was unpacking his last box of books, and at the bottom of the box were my cookbooks! B) I was so excited I did a "white-girl" dance around the room! (sorry ya'll but I have no rhythm, and I definitely have no coordination). ;)

There's my update! Happy baking. -Julie

Yay ! I know you missed them, so glad they turned up !

When we moved years ago, I didn't take my toolbox along outside the moving van, and every day I didn't have that little box of stuff it drove me nearly crazy. We had to wait a month to take possession of the house but they allowed us to work on the fences before if we wanted to.... I had to strip off miles of old rusted barb wire, multiple strands, and I needed my fencing pliers, my big pliers, my needlenose pliers, and my little feminine sized leather palmed work gloves.

The moving van disgorged all the boxes into the storage facility here. Didn't find that stuff for a long time and it was in more than one box.... Now I've got multiples of each.

Thanks everyone :) I sure have missed cooking...even with the flops (dare I remind any of you of my flying pretzel incident?).

It was like Christmas w/o the expense! ...to replace the cookbooks would have cost over $100 (and one of them is out of print).

I am the one who packed the box :rolleyes::o I don't know what I was thinking! Of course, I may have been packing that evening with my one-year old clutching my leg and trying to cook dinner. I'm not the world's greatest multitasker. :ph34r:

Can't wait to start making the gluten-free spring rolls! Ahhh. It's good to be back! ;)

Julie

P.S. Takala, I totally understand...we now have about 30 packs of AA batteries. We went out and restocked for my son's toys and then found them! We have two of many things now. (Yard sale time again)! :)

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat. In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue. A wedge...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.

I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.
