  1. Not a lot to pluck from the garden right now?? Popsicles??
  2. I actually made myself a cup-of-soup (Maggi creamy chicken) that was gluten free for lunch today because it was raining. And it was goooood!
  3. Actually, she made it for me so I could eat it vicariously, being the only way.....
  4. So sorry about FIL, Marilyn and absence of DP. But so sweet and cute about your doggie.
  5. Were they Ball Park by chance?
  6. I sure hope you are working on your cookbook, love2travel - I will drool over it even if I can't make the recipes
  7. Oh BeFree, I am so happy for you that you are able to eat all that stuff. I couldn't eat a single morsel of it
  8. ...once you find out what it was
  9. Nightshade plants are known for their inflammatory properties, and it is advised that people with inflammatory dieseases such as arthritis do not eat them. This was the original reason I started laying off them. Then I found that potatoes were toxic to me (I had already figured out and did not like peppers), but once I discovered that tomatoes also did...
  10. After a couple of years and a lot of research I have tracked my problem down to being caused by lectins in specific foods, in my case the lectins in corn, nightshades, soy, citrus, legumes, and gluten of course. So I have eliminated them. However, before I found the last of them my problem converted to atrial lfibrillation, and this is sometimes now set...
  11. Maria, I too have suffered from problems with my vagus nerve. Vaso-vagal syncope from the pressure of the bloating - I always passed out briefly, knew it was coming on with ringing in the ears, dizziness, sweating, and would come to freezing colld and weak. It has now progressed to atrial fibrillation where my heart goes into abnormal rhythms when I eat...
  12. Leftovers: Beef stew Parsnip concannon Stuffed pumpkin (with baby spinach, mushrooms, red onion, topped with cheese)
  13. Anything with cheese, bacon and wine has to be a perfect dinner (well, that is, depending on the wine -- nothing out of the box because life is too short to drink cheap wine )
  14. Hang in there Twinklestars, it is well worth it when you get to the other side
  15. I had scallops las night while hub had shrimp - what to have with it? There was STILL some rice salad left, so I sliced up some mushrooms and sauteed them, dumped the rice in and had fried rice and swiss chard.
  16. That's okay, you were meant to laugh The lower tiers were quite tasty but the higher you went the less taste, the more heat
  17. We ate rijsttafel (Indonesian rice table - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rijsttafel) whilst on honeymoon in Amsterdam. This is a collection of many dishes arranged in tiers with those on the top tiers being the smallest and spiciest. And we were warned about how hot the ones on top were. I didn't go beyond the first two or three tiers. Hub tried a taste...
  18. Just as a matter of interest, how BIG is your pantry?
  19. Liz, is she really one year old??? You totally MUST update your pic!!!
  20. Chicken pasta salad with something???
  21. Shroom! OMG...Just saw the news about another quake...are you all right!!????

  22. Thanks, Jess and Sylvia, for the corn flour information. Definitely something for me to avoid, being whole kernel Mebbe that explains the failure of certain recipes in the past
  23. In U.S., what is difference between corn starch and corn flour? Is corn flour like cornmeal or something in between, or masa harina?? The two terms (starch and flour) are used interchangeably here because we don't have a corn culture.
  24. Chicken something - have no idea. Eating down the freezer so whatever idea I come up with when the chicken has finished thawing (and depending what else I find in the refrigerator )
  25. It's called freeloading, I believe
