  1. Happy birthday and may God bless you today!

  2. Hi! Just wanted to give an update. Born September 29th, 2008 at 37 weeks: Samantha Claire - 6# 3.5oz, 20" long Nicholas Isaac - 6# 0.5oz, 18.5" long Healthy beautiful babies! Thanks everyone for your advice and prayers. Kim
  3. I love Carrabba's. It's the only sit-down place we go. I always get the Chicken Bryan and the Sicilian Chicken Soup. However, please, please ask the kitchen to double check that the soup doesn't have any pasta that has accidentally fallen in the soup and gone straight to the bottom. Each time, they have thrown out the soup pot, but the damage was already...
  4. I just had to do this recently. It takes alot more time than opening a box, but that is just the way it goes for people with food intolerances. The first step is to make homemade cornbread. If your recipe calls for white wheat flour, simply substitute it for rice flour. I haven't found that the type of flour makes a difference for cornbread. Let...
  5. I used yogurt cheese for months before I ventured out into other cheeses. I bought the prepackaged cheese in from the deli case at the grocery and it looks just like a half moon of cheese. You can shred it, slice it, cube it, whatever. Is it good? Yes, it has a unique flavor like a swiss blend. Is it easy to make...do you have a recipe? I found...
  6. Yes, I've used the Kroger white vinegar for months before I finally figured out it was the problem. According the the Kroger dietician (who are just wonderful) about 10% of celiacs have a reaction to 90/10 white vinegar. I'm so sensitive that even using Kroger white vinegar in a diluted spray bottle for household cleaning effects me greatly (inhaling tiny...
  7. Has anyone with sensitivities to distilled vinegar tried the Hellman's Mayo? My concern is the vinegar, even though distilled, I have problems if it is distilled from a grain other than corn. For example, Kroger white vinegar is only 90% corn and 10% "other grains" which may or may not contain wheat. This is directly from the Kroger Dietician. I sure...
  8. Thanks Ursa and HiDee for the advice. I've noticed that since I found out about the twins, I have given myself permission to (1) feel extremely pregnant (2) eat when I'm hungry which has considerably diminished my nausea and (3) put my feet up (as long as my 2 1/2 year old allows it). Keep the advice coming. I need help from the trenches...what is...
  9. Hi! Just found out last week at 20 week ultrasound that we are having another boy and a girl! Whew! Any advice? Do I need more high protein foods? Help! Thanks, Kim
  10. I second the recommendation from CarlaB regarding reading the book "What Your Doctor Might Not Tell You About Premenopause". I just finished an intense scan of the book last night and there is alot of helpful advice and direction about hormonal imbalance and how to get back on track. If you are between 20 and 50, good book to keep on hand as a reference...
  11. I used a prescription prenatal for my first child (pre-celiac) and was told by a pharmacist that the OTC prenatals are just as good. I was relieved b/c I was on vacation and forgot my vitamins. I don't use prescription now, instead I use Nature Made Prenatals (Kroger) and have been very please with them. I found these to not irritate my system after...
  12. Definately like the cooler idea. Gives me a good excuse to get a good one with wheels!
  13. Thanks everyone! Your responses are reassuring that I won't get in trouble with "nurse rachet". I'll check to see how much fridge space I can take up. Love the ideas about pumpkin seed bars and such. I'll have to go shopping before hand and really stock up. The other problem is that the delivery hospital is an hour away from us so I will really have...
  14. Hi! This will be my second child but first gluten-free pregnancy and delivery . I have done my research and determined that I shouldn't trust the dietician and kitchen at the hospital and should prepare my own meals in advance to take to the hospital. Btw, it will be c-section so the stay will be 3 to 4 days. What did you do when you were...
  15. Can you wonderful chicken egg gatherers tell me about your coop? I need to revamp ours and I'm confused on which way to go. I'd like to minimize shoveling but keep a nice comfy space for my chickens. Also, did you brood your chicks? If so how and did you do the chick starter feed? Thanks, Kim
