We have the books to finish but we've seen all the movies now. They were fantastic. I love them all. We aim to own all the movies as well as all the books.

The next adventure we will embark on is Pirates of the Carribean.

I read all the Harry potter novels before I saw the movies which I think was really good as the movies dont show half of what is in the books. You will love Pirates of the Carribean we are waiting for the fourth to come out on dvd to join our set.

I LOVE the books, have the whole series but I can't stand the movies. Just dosen't follow the storyline all that well for me. I know they can't fit everything from the books into the movies but I come away feeling dissatisfied. Oh well. Now, i'm getting into the Percy Jackson series and the Kane Chronicles. I'm an adult but I love these books. :D

My oldest son (10.5 yrs old) loves the Percy Jackson books and the Kane Chronicles. I decided to pick the first Percy Jackson book up and read a little bit. It was a good read! He didn't like the Harry Potter books though.

I love the Harry Potter books. My favorite is the last one. It reads like an account of the holocaust. When I was teaching High School English, it hadn't come out yet, and after I read it, I wished I was still back in the classroom. I taught at a rural "southern" school where there was quite a lot of racism. I would have loved to assign the books as a major test grade replacement. I would have had them write a paper comparing and contrasting it to the holocaust and describing how we could use the examples presented by Harry in our lives today. *sigh*

We've read the whole of the first book. It worked out well for us to watch the movies first because my dd has autism and without the movies she wouldn't be as interested because she can't imagine what she's reading but she can think back to the movies while I read them to her.

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
