    That made me smile. Thank you for the encouragement! I think my self-assurance is sometimes a problem. People assume I'm content... when I'm actually looking for more! I am probably guilty of a negative energy when meeting men. I am going to think about that the next time I'm talking with a man I find attractive. I am thinking too...

    There are pros and cons to being nearly 40, having a sense of absolute freedom, having no emotional connection left with your ex (not even anger), having free-spirited children who look forward to new experiences.... it's almost as though too much freedom has me chained to this spot. Everywhere I look, I can go. So, I hesitate to move at all. I'm looking...

    I know. I will miss california. I do love it. But there are things that I need for stability. I need to be secure financially.. on my own. My ex would love to purchase me a home, keep me here near him... but only to have control over me. He really doesn't care if we move because he will replace us instantly. I need to move.

    Thank you both for offering some help. I am also confused about what I want to do. What do I like? What interests me? I was/am a stay at home mom. My bills are paid as my ex was quite well off and continues to be generous... (he is a terrible alcoholic incase you wonder why I would leave such a generous man) He put me and our children through a lot...

    You all seem so friendly. I have something I would like to discuss with the 30 something crowd. I am divorced and live in a small town. I am planning to move within the next year. I want to know, aside from bars, where do you meet other singles? I was with my spouse for many years. We met as teenagers. I am kind of quiet. Not a partier. My more energetic...

    We do not eat pork. I never bothered to find a sausage that was pork free. Do they make them? I've seen Lamb casing, but that was for specialty sausages, not the breakfast ones. It's been a few years now and every time I go to look, I quit. It seems too difficult. Or I feel too tired. If anyone knows of a breakfast type of sausage that is not...

    Oh, sure. Like I said, I found that I really enjoy the Gluten free Pantry French Bread and Pizza Crust mix. I prepare it following the bread recipe. I use Kinik all purpose flour to help handle the very gooey mixture once prepared. It's not to be rolled out. I simply take a large spoonful of the dough (it must rise for 40 minutes prior to using it) and...

    Thank you. I will get that info from you in the spring. Even if I don't continue to post here very often, I will remember to ask you for the name sometime around April if Bloomington is where I decide to go. Thank you again. You've been very helpful.

    Thank you again. I plan to contact a realtor at the end of this school year and move. I will not visit the place we decide on. I do not have the luxury of that kind of time or money, unfortunately. I will trust in fate to bring me to the right town. Yes, I've considered Fishers. My friend does not live there, but her family does. She visits them...

    I, also, do not use breads in my meatballs. I was taught to make them without it and never have used any. I only add minced garlic, salt, pepper, and a bit of tomato sauce. I used to also add freshly grated parmesan cheese, but have stopped doing that. I also do not add milk or cream to my scrambled eggs, french toast or use milk in my baking recipes...

    Carla, Is Bloomington very much more rural than Noblesville? I didn't do an indepth search on the area, just a quick look through homes available on Realtor.com. I felt that the homes were a bit older, though there were newer homes as well, and that it was a bit secluded. I also still need to actually google the lake you mentioned to see more. It is...

    Oh, no.... The east coast scares me....

    Kansas City.... I have a question... Is Clinton Lake as beautiful as it sounds? I have googled it numerous times and looked for pictures (seen only a few). I wanted to get a strong visual of it all. Do you visit there? Is it polluted? Issues during peak months?? We love to sail. We require a decent opportunity to continue participating in our favorite...

    Thank you all for the warm welcome. I am going to look up Bloomington, Indiana right now thanks to a suggestion by Carla.

    I am in California. I have been here for many years. I was not one of the smart people who purchased a home prior to the home price increases. I feel that the joy has left this beautiful area for me personally. I will never be able to obtain financial freedom living here. I am very unhappy renting at my age. I want to provide a better quality of life...

    Thank you very much. I will order the kit today. I did not use Igenix initially.

    I'm going through a mid-life crisis of sorts. I would like to move. I haven't been to too many states, but am interested in Missouri (Kansas City area), Indiana (Noblesville area), and Oklahoma (Edmond area). Anyone here from one of those areas? Anyone familiar with those areas? I chose Missouri for the beautiful nature it offers. I chose Indiana...

    Not having the strenght to read through nearly 10,000 posts, can you tell me what test you used to diagnose the lyme? I believe I have a lyme issue. My tests came back negative. I think it was missed.

    My very favorite meal is a homemade chicken pot pie. I have not had a decent chicken pot pie for years. That was until a few weeks ago. I decided to purchase a box of the gluten free pantry FRENCH bread and Pizza Mix.. I baked it and it was so good. I had to add extra salt, though. I was eating out with some girlfriends, coffee at our local coffee...

    Christmas is my favorite time of year. I love cooking for the holidays. I would like to add that if you put orange flavored extract into the K brand of chocolate cake, you would not believe how good it is. I made this for my husband's mother's birthday. I added melted white chocolate on top and shaved chocolate as a decorative top. It would work for...

    Recipe # 1 Bake kinnikinnick chocolate cake according to recipe, but add 1tbs of peppermint extract. Melt blocks of gluten-free chocolate. Pour over top of cooled cake. Use a hammer to break up bits of candy cane. Sprinkle broken candy cane bits on top of cooling chocolate so that they will stick. Put sprigs of mint leaves in center of...

    Trace amounts can get into your eyes, mouth, nasal passages. Creams are a no-no. Do not rub gluten into your skin if you have celiac disease. I found I had multiple bloody nose issues when preparing gluten containing foods for family. When I stopped, so did the bloody noses.
  23. HawkFire
    Yes.

    Because no celebrity with any real clout has stepped up to the plate to be an advocate. Celiac disease is not considered the stylish disease of the month to support with a ribbon or a walk. So pick up your banner, wave it proudly and do your part until some glamorous, over-paid, brain-dead fashionista decides it will propel her career to new heights if...

    I use a lot of cilantro and was interested in the health benefits of the herb. I looked it up and was surprised to discover it has been used for centuries as an anti- inflamatory, it aids in digestion and has antibacterial properties in it's oil that help kill the unwanted in your intestines! I have been using it for some years now and suspect that it is...
