I Am Totally Excited

I have got to share this...for all of us who bake in this forum; I think you can appreciate this sale I found!

I was in a discount/overstock department store shopping yesterday, and they had received a shipment of very high-end pots and pans.

I purchased 2 new square cake pans, 2 new bread loaf pans, one new baking sheet, and a food chopper all made by Cuisenart (sp?). I also purchased three new baking pans and a muffin pan made by Wilten "Elite." In addition, I found two large heavy-duty stove top pans. And I picked up a cheese shredder and one home decor item...my grand total with tax? $117.00! :o:P

I couldn't believe it. Just one of the Cuisanart pans had a pricetag of $40 from the original store!

I'm just so excited that I can throw out my warped, rusted, permanently stained, el cheapo, Wal-Mart stuff.

That's it. Just sharing my good bargain I stumbled upon.

Happy baking. -Jules B)

I'm still so excited I can hardly stand it...

11 pots/pans and a food chopper made by Cuisanart/Wilton

A cheese/veggie Grater

and general "house decorating junk"

My total was under $100 before tax. The stuff was so heavy, I couldn't lift one of the bags...my hubby had to carry it to the car! :P

Talk about Christmas in July! You ladies are totally right. :D If you would have told me a few years ago when I was in college that I would be this excited over pots and pans...I would have laughed and said, "yeah, right. There's no way."

I've never owned anything this nice before...my hubby and I are on a fairly tight budget...so it's ALWAYS been the Wal-Mart cheapo stuff that warps so easily. Maybe my gluten-free cookies won't "run" down the pan into each other anymore! What a treat! :lol:

Happy 4th! Thanks for sharing in my excitement! -Julie

Congratulations! You done good - I'm impressed! B)

And here I was all excited about actually finding bake ware at WalMart that was Made in USA and not in China! :ph34r:

I like your find better! :lol:

Yep Julie,

Being in the right place at the right time is the key...ironically, I wasn't even in there for cookware! I was looking for kitchen roosters for decorating! :P

Yeaaa Sandi...proudly made in the US of A! Don't get me wrong, Walmart does have some good dishes and cookware. But I've always purchased the "three baking pans for $6.00" kind of stuff...mainly because of our financial situation. I was just blessed to have $100 that I could spend...not that I usually have that kind of money laying around :ph34r:

My hubby was just glad to find out it wasn't $100 worth of kitchen roosters! :D;)

hugs. -Julie

Make sure you watch your Cuisinart stovetop pots & pans mine burned BAD on the bottoms everytime I cooked with them. I ended up frustrated and bought new Belgique ones. B):P

You can also get excellent quality pots & pans @ TJ Maxx or Ross

Be well Lovelies!

You'll enjoy using your new purchases. Having good equipment just makes the job easier.

Morning everyone!

Wonka- "Having good equipment just makes the job easier"- You are sooo right!

Since all of my old pans have warped, my food no longer cooks evenly...and soft baked things

"run" into one another! :rolleyes:

Hello Collette darling-

As always, your wisdom is appreciated. B) I take what the cooking Goddess says

(that would be you Collette) :D very seriously!

Yep, I was in a Ross I think...there are several of those stores located near me. I get them

confused b/c they are in the same plaza. It's discount heaven! :wub:

Many hugs. -Julie

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
