    Liz, the advice to check with your vet is a good one! I just finished doing an article about chocolate for the Kennel Club newsletter, if you wish to see a copy, PM me with your email address and I'll send it along.

    Sorry Katrinamaria, but this just struck me as so funny I've tried both, honey nut and the apple cinn. They are okay, but expensive, and I'm pretty sure I've developed an allergy to cinnamon, so won't buy it again. I've also had the Perky Os .. the only thing I can say about them is that they actually have vitamins in them ... which is more than...

    Now this is a really interesting view point. I've just been sitting here thinking about an uncle that is extrememly rigid in his diet, also "right about everything" no other view points needed around him. Isn't that funny ... I never thought about that before. He's so rigid in keeping his car that you have to clean your feet before you get in it. I...

    Hi Cathy, there's nothing like trying to go on a diet on top of Celiac Disease that gets you obsessing about food. Every time I think ... "I shouldn't eat that" I get really, really hungry and have to eat something! So ... it's off to the popcorn I don't know how much popcorn I've gone through Good thing there isn't very many callories in it. Oh...

    Okay Liz, what are K-Toos? And Patti, what are Snickerdoodles? Am I missing out on some good stuff here you two? Has anyone heard how Autumn is doing? I hope her and her little girl are doing better. I've been thinking of them all day. Not much exciting happening around her today. I spent the morning downstairs painting and the afternoon...

    It's going to take awhile for you to heal ... Also it's going to take awhile for you to realize where all that gluten is hiding. For the first few months you will likely have contamination issues. Things like putting gluten free bread in a gluten contaminated toaster. Or getting all that gluten scrubbed out of baking pans (I went out and bought new ones...

    I just had a peanut butter and banana sandwich out of their white bread I've been using their product for years. Their angel food cake is awesome ... I buy the egg whites by those little cartons for it. One of those little cartons say that it is equivilant to 8 egg whites, however I always add another two egg white to get it to raise better. We...

    Autumn, I'm so sorry you are still ill, and it's really sad that your little girl is ill as well. Hopefully you will both be feeling much better soon. Let us know how the tests with the water goes. It's been a strange day ... had a walk in the morning, after that not much exersize, I painted downstairs all morning and then the afternoon on the computer...

    Hello; Welcome to the board, it sounds like you have been doing a lot of reading here If you are not concerned with getting a documented diagnosis, you could try going 'completely' gluten free and see if that solves your problems. By the sounds of things, it might do the whole family good There are pros and cons to getting a documented diagnosis...

    Actually I like raw veggies, having said that, I don't eat a lot raw as I find it hard to digest. And yes, balance would be a problem. If this is "going back to basics", like before cooking ... what about evolution (sp)? I mean aren't we supposed to evolve and get better, and smarter? Besides, people died a whole lot younger in those days. They didn...

    Hello clikchic, welcome to the board! You may be still getting traces of gluten from your make-up, or tiny amounts of cross contamination from old pots, pans etc. It's really hard at first to get completely gluten free. Also, it does take some time for the body to start healing. So you will have some up and down moments. Ask a lot of questions here, there...

    perhaps we can start our own dictionary ... it can start with de-lurked Good one hershey! Oh my gosh, we are getting lots of fun newbies (yes, that will be in the dictionary too) on the board. Welcome reyhan! Does Turkey have a lot of gluten free products?

    I would have killed him ... then there would be no need for divorce How do these guys think this stuff up!

    Autumn, I sure hope you are starting to feel better now. Not fun being sick! I spent another day in town, Castlegar again, with hubby. We went in to get a water purifier kit for the house. We have been boiling water for the past three years or so, decided it would be just as cheap to splurge on an Ultra Violet purifing system for the whole house. $4...

    Ham Chowder; Dice pre-cooked old fashioned ham Put into a pot half full of water, add one or two bay leaves. Simmer while you peel and dice potatoes Remove bay leaves, add potatoes Add finely chopped onions and dried parsley and ground pepper (do not add salt!) Just before you serve add a mixture of potato four and water to thicken the chowder (can...

    Oh wow! How frustrating can that be in the dog house for sure Terry! I'm one of those that doesn't allow gluten flour or mixes in the house. Cleaning that mess up would have had me fuming for a month

    Terra Cotta has the most awesome carrot cake, but I think you can only order it in Canada. They are based in Alberta.

    You are so right, and unfortunately it can take some expensive trial and error to weed out the gross stuff But being in this forum helps a lot because people post their favourite ones.

    I'm so glad she is doing better now! She will really appreciate being home again for sure. Is rotovirus something similiar to the Norwalk (sp) virus? It does sound like it.
  21. Viola 1
    Yup, you're just too young! You could catch some re-runs though if you have the game chanel on cable or satilite

    Angie ... I've past this thread a couple of times, and I'm sorry ... I just can't resist. The word Whoopie .. Have you ever seen the TV show the "Newlywed Game"? Whoopie was constantly used for .... well, you know Well, the word Sex wasn't used when that show first started. At least not on public television. That recipe really does sound good...
