  1. Are you including any tapioca or arrowroot starch in the mix? That will help hold the puff. I'd even try adding some yeast and letting it rise for a while.
  2. I just wanted to mention, I made a potato salad with some sour cream and italian dressing instead of mayo, and whoo!!! That's good stuff. I saw you didn't list dairy, so you might want to try it. It's kind like german potato salad I guess.
  3. Be careful with your grills, there might be gluten from old sauces burnt on there that needs to be THOROUGHLY cleaned before use.
  4. I've found that I do still get sick, but it's nothing like it used to be. Now, a bad cold means a headache and a stuffy nose. I take Advil, I blow my nose, I go to work. Before? Home for three days in agony and weak and sick and..... You get the idea. I'm the only one that doesn't call out of work when the flu goes around.
  5. So...... If nobody gets to say gluten free on their packaging, because there's no way to create a testable standard for that, how much are we going to miss out on (hypothetically)? Like the Rice Chex, for example. I never would've thought to keep checking their brand to see if they'd switched off the barley malt unless they were advertising themselves as...
  6. Oh, your poor sweet baby. I hope she gets better soon and gets to sit outside!
  7. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! You know, the funny thing is, my boyfriend is the anal one. I'd leave crap everywhere if it were up to me.
  8. Completely OT, but Violet? Love your quote in your sig!
  9. I agree with you here, more disclosure of plain ingredient listings would be great. And, if the 'black and white' crew were to have it their way, absolutely nothing in our stores would be labeled as 'gluten free', because there is no test that says '0'. Even Bob's Red Mill only uses an Elisa gluten assay, it doesn't test to '0'. So, if we were to determine...
  10. See, I have a slightly 'inflated' behind. But I'm 5'7'' 145lbs, so you'd figure they make clothes for people my height and weight, right? WRONG! I swear, 95% of the jeans I try on are like saran-wrap on my butt and completely baggy on my thighs. I'd love a pair of pants that just fits. The best ones definitely have the 4-6% spandex though, because I get that...
  11. Laser tag! Paintball! Wall-climbing! The point is to get your blood moving so you're forced to get some exercise while you're having fun. That and there's the ever-eternal fun marital sport..... That'll get your blood moving. Trust me, he likes it when it's your idea.
  12. They have AWESOME chicken nuggets. ihaven't tried the tenders in a while, I thought they were too salty when I tried them year or so ago. Does anyone else have problems with Lay's? I react to them, I gave up a while ago on their whole brand.
  13. Here, I have a few suggestions. I made Gluten Free By the Bay's (blogger) re-tooled version of Lorka's bread. Check out the bread section on his blog, you'll find the recipe. I made it with millet, sorghum, and amaranth. You could try millet-rice-amaranth, that's actually the combo he calls for. Now, can you tell me whether or not you have had a definitive...
  14. HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Me too. I kinda don't hope he wins though, cuz he needs to have some artistic freedom. The pop machine did wonderful things for Jordin Sparks. I don't see that working for David Cook.
  15. Um, yeah..... tomato no bueno..... I wouldn't even try applesauce, just plain fluids is best.
  16. I have some advice. Any gluten-free replacement product you buy, make sure you keep the receipt and only buy one at a time, because some of it is outrageously awful. Most of us think the Ener-g rice and tapioca breads are only good for building material. Ok, they make a decent turkey stuffing, but that's it. You definitely can't eat it straight. So, never...
  17. Good advice, I'd actually say 15 lbs.
  18. You're diabolical. I like it. I'm in for ten bucks says the doctor's a beephead and tells you you're hormonal.
  19. Maybe your systems just have issues with the fermentation process byproducts. There's a lot of yeast in beer, right? You probably haven't had any yeast in forever, since you're not eating bread all the time.
  20. I made Gluten Free By The Bay's version of this bread (called it 'miracle bread) yesterday in a bread machine. We didn't cook it long enough so it was a litte gummier than it would've been, but oh my..... I really did almost cry.
  21. Try baking bread with another pan full of water in the oven, a lot of poeple have had good luck with that.
  22. Also, remember, even if you get a Celiac diagnosis, a lot of people may not come around anyway. You said that you've felt far better gluten free. If that's enough for YOU to decide stay gluten free, there's no reason to eat gluten and suffer for testing that's intended to convince OTHER people. It's not their choice, it's yours. Not to mention the fact that...
  23. I actually had that horrid, gnawing hunger that woke me in the night as one of my symptoms before going gluten free, and for about a year afterward. I'm 5'7" and was down to 105 lbs when I learned I had a wheat problem, it took me a while longer to figure out it was actually Celiac, so now I'm up to 145. I now only get hungry when my stomach is actually empty...
  24. Basically, you have to decide whether THE FOOD YOU EAT has enough control over you to compromise YOUR HEALTH. What you're telling us is that your tongue has so much control over the rest of you that you will gladly continue damaging yourself to the point where your duodenum will no longer push food through. Eventually, you're going to have to decide whether...

    HAHAHAHA!!! I truly think that there are people in this world who simply enjoy seeing other people sick or unhappy, because it makes them feel better about themselves. Regardless of the psychology behind it, this behavior is not healthy for YOU to be dealing with, I mean, this woman works in a hospital, how can she not understand this stuff? What would...
