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

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet.  I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now.  He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs.  It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc.  It's literally neurological inflammation.  Not to be taken lightly here.  We have sought out many other possible ways to cope during this window of time (8 months!!!!)  without success.   AN-PEP does not help and seems like studies on this are not well researched.  So, we are trying this out because research shows some promising results.  And, all participants showed no cravings afterwards, no signs of addiction.  The patch is different than the oral route such as smoking, vaping, gum, pouch, etc.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-Free.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      @fatjacksonthecat I have been doing some digging about the topic of nicotine and celiac.  I came across many studies that showed that the nicotine patch helped many with long covid and chronic fatigue syndrome.  I have a son who was diagnosed with celiac and his symptoms are severe when he is glutened.  He shows a lot of neurological inflammation and suffered with fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety and insomnia. There have been studies revealing that nicotine smoke actually masking celiac symptoms.  I also read that microdosing with a nictoine patch prevents one from addiction.  We are currently trying this out and so far it has lifted the brain fog and helped with anxiety and mood.  One of the studies I have read showed that it's not so much the dose, but the length of time a person is on the patch that showed improvements.  Many showed significant improvement as early as week 3 and continued through week 12.  We are taking 3 day breaks in between to make sure we don't down regulate the nicotine receptors.   How have things been for you?  Are you still chewing nicotine gum?  Perhaps, try the patch?  And how long did it take to ease up on your symptoms when glutened?

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here.  I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?
