It seems that celiacs have more problems with sciatica than normal. Is this true or am I just getting old and sitting on my bum too much? I have a great stretch for my sciatic pain but would also be interested in any other exercises that y'all can share. Thanks! -Cathy

In the newly opened 29th Street Mall there is a locally owned salad/sandwich place call 'Mad Greens'. My hubby & I ate there yesterday and and it was very good. According to the management all dressings (which are made on premises) are gluten-free. Additionally, all the meat seasonings are mixed there and are gluten-free. Only the breaded chicken...

ARCHIVED My Dog Is A Major Faker
clbevilacqua replied to theprincess's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
That is too funny! My dog (pictured) had major surgery in July and my daughter claims he is still milking me for attention. Of course, how could I deny a cute face like that! I'm glad there was nothing truly wrong with your dog! It will be interesting to see if she tries this again! -
ARCHIVED Need Tips On Negotiating A Car
clbevilacqua replied to debmidge's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I'm not sure what questions you should ask. I do know that my sister did this and it was one of the worst financial decisions that she ever made. Something happened that when she turned it in she still owed a boat load of money. Also, I know from a friend of mine, that one of the most important things to get is gap insurance. I believe what it covers is... -

ARCHIVED Any Gluten Free/lactose Free Green Bean Casserole Recipes?
clbevilacqua replied to IrishKelly's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Can you use non-fat dried milk? Or do you know of a substitute that you can use for it? I have a gluten free cream soup recipe that I can post if you are interested, but it uses non-fat dried milk. -

ARCHIVED Good Appetizer Recipes?
clbevilacqua replied to lizisgf's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I have a group of people coming on Friday for dinner. I have the dessert menu (the most important part of the meal) set and pretty set on a chicken w/white sauce lasagna for dinner but I'm coming up empty on appetizers. Since we will be standing around talking for awhile before dinner, I would really like to have something either room temp or chilled-but... -
ARCHIVED Help! Roux(flour & Oil) Gluten Free
clbevilacqua replied to AmyTopolski's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I was curious how many different roux recipes there are out there (since mine is rattling around in my head) so I googled it. And I found this one that I am now excited to try as it is done in the microwave, so it will require much less patience on my part (always a plus with my personality). Anyway, I would assume that it is harder to burn also. ... -
ARCHIVED Help! Roux(flour & Oil) Gluten Free
clbevilacqua replied to AmyTopolski's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Tom Sawyer flour is at: glutenfreeflour.com A true, good roux isn't easy regardless of the flour-so don't give up! Just try a lower heat and stir constantly. If you don't like the taste of potato starch try either corn starch only or a mixture of equal parts corn starch and potato starch. If that doesn't work PM me and let me know what flours... -
Since a couple of you have said that you enjoy reading of him, I thought I would recommend a book my husband received as a gift and we both found to be quite hilarious "The Wicked Wit of Winston Churchill". It is a compilation of things he said during his lifetime-most of them just downright funny-I can always just picture him in my mind-delivering his witicisms...

ARCHIVED I Need A Really, Really Good Chocolate Cake Recipe
clbevilacqua replied to prinsessa's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
This sounds like a FABulous way to die! Does it become hard like a shell or does it stay gooey? Or somewhere in between? It sounds like it would help keep the cake moist, too! I am definately making dessert tonight! -
ARCHIVED Help! Roux(flour & Oil) Gluten Free
clbevilacqua replied to AmyTopolski's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Do you have any flour mixes? Those generally work better than any one flour by itself. Although if it carmelized, it sounds like it cooked too long/fast. Have you made a roux before with "normal" flour? If not, it does take patience (which is why I don't make them very often ) Also, when you have the time (meaning you don't need an emergency fix) I would... -
ARCHIVED Passover Flours
clbevilacqua posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I think I saw something on here but I can't find it now and I know this is after Passover, but it will come again, so sorry if this is repetitive. I read something that said Passover food couldn't have wheat/barley/rye in it (because the gluten is a leavening). But I thought that when I looked on some of the ingredient labels they listed wheat so I just... -
ARCHIVED Grinder On Kithen Aid Mixer?
clbevilacqua replied to ptkds's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I used to own a KA mixer and wasn't thrilled with it. When I looked for a new mixer I did a lot of research since at the time I was making 6-10 loaves of bread a week. What I ended up buying is the The Magic Mill DLX Assistent and I love it. The thing I like the most is that the bowl, not the beaters are motor driven, so it doesn't stress the motor as... -

clbevilacqua replied to Turtle's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Believe it or not there is a website called maidofhonor.org and while they are selling some books-it also has a lot of info and links regarding the traditional duties. While I would say for my personality a bridal luncheon would be enough from the sound of your friends personality, you should start planning a bridal shower too. The MOH is also responsible... -
ARCHIVED Living In 2006
clbevilacqua replied to clbevilacqua's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
OK-that's too funny! Contrary to my kids belief, dinosaurs did not roam the earth when I was a kid! (Although I think my dad killed the last one for Thanksgiving dinner when I was about 9-haha) -
ARCHIVED True Or False
clbevilacqua replied to clbevilacqua's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I actually found that out too-but since they aren't ossified I figured it still "counted". I posted this over from something a friend sent-I found it amusing-but then again I'm easily amused. -

ARCHIVED What A Difference 100 Years Makes!
clbevilacqua posted a topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
This will boggle your mind, I know it did mine! (of course, that isn't saying much The year is 1905. One hundred years ago. What a difference a century makes! Here are some of the U.S. statistics for the Year 1905: The average life expectancy in the U.S. was 47 years. Only 14 percent of the homes in the U.S. had a bathtub. Only... -
True or False ? Can you guess which of the following are true and which are false? 1. Apples, not coffee, are more efficient at waking you up in the morning. 2. Alfred Hitchcock didn't have a belly button. 3. A pack-a-day smoker will lose approximately 2 teeth every 10 years. 4. People do not get sick from cold weather; it's from being indoors...

ARCHIVED Gluten Free Meatballs?
clbevilacqua replied to NicoleAJ's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Funny you put this post in today-I just made meatballs. I don't like "mushy" meat so I use crushed gluten free corn flakes instead of breadcrumbs. I also use fennel seed to season mine, along with parsley, salt, pepper, garlic & onion. If this sounds like something you are interested in PM me and I'll give you the recipe!
