    I don't believe it is safe for us. I couldn't find it on any gluten-free lists, which leads me to believe it contains gluten. Karen

    Besides, if I start praising the virtues of all the uses for Vaseline, I could REALLY, REALLY get in trouble!!!! LOL!

    Don't worry, it would only be temporary! I have a Mike Myers' type voice inside my head saying: "OH, BEHAVE!!!" (It must be a message from one Scarberian to another). He grew up 5 minutes from my place in Scarborough...... Hugs! Karen

    You have a point there. That's exactly why I use Vaseline. I trust it. Nothin' fancy about it. But hey, take my advice with a grain of salt! After all, I am the one who praises the virtues of Preparation "H" Cooling Gel under the eyes for puffiness! It's as good as a spa treatment! Hugs. Karen

    LOL! I was skimming quickly through the post index and I thought I read "Big Bowel Restaurant"!! LOL! Now THAT would be a catchy name, eh? Hugs. Karen

    Former party animal here. Back in my heyday (we won't mention when those were though, I will start feeling too old.......) I used to party every weekend, and usually a couple of times through the week as well. I worked for a nuclear engineering firm that was based in Switzerland, and all us secretaries used to go out partying with the engineers all...

    I don't even have a clue what okra looks like! LOL! I guess that's due to being up here in the Great Canadian North!!! LOL! Hugs. Karen

    Okay, here's my dream for 50 years down the road: Wheat is not used for human consumption hardly had all anymore. But the GNP does not suffer, because some bright person perfected the scientific technique of turning wheat into fuel which is most envioronmentally friendly. (Thinking dreamily........) "What a perfect win-win situation........." BAM...

    Scott has some automatic short-form thing-a-ma-jingy on here where if you just type the initials, it automatically pops in what that stands for. "C.D." is another. Some people have typed C.D. (without the periods) in a post about compact discs, and it automatically comes up Celiac Disease. Karen

    Debmidge, Did you try that casserole you were talking about? Hugs. Karen

    I agree wholeheartedly. That is why I make it a point of saying to the newbies that although it sounds so hard at the beginning, to trust us, it will get so much easier once you get the hang of it and there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I would also like to give credit to companies like Kraft, who make our lives so much easier. There are soooo...

    Hi! Welcome to the board! We have all been where you are right now, in shock and not knowing what to do next. Ask questions, lots of them! Our motto here is that the only stupid question is the one not asked...... There are a bunch of really knowledgeable, helpful, supportive people here who are always willing to chime in. Firstly, you need to get...

    Hi McDougall, Here is a thread that might interest you regarding this subject: Open Original Shared Link It was one of our brainstorming sessions!! Karen

    I SOOOO hear ya! Yesterday, after I took the kids to school, I came back, laid down on the couch, and next thing I knew, it was 2 p.m.!!!! I am tired ALL THE TIME! But I already know the reason: I am severely anemic. My family doctor is recommending IV systemic iron. I can't absorb iron if my life depended on it! (Which, of course, it does!) Hugs...

    Sorry, can't really recommend any. When I feel like a coffee, I run to my nearest Tim Hortons! Best coffee on the planet! Hugs. Karen

    Wow! That sounds like really promising news!!!!! Thanks! Karen
  23. Canadian Karen
    Ouch! Now THAT would burn! Oh well, it could replace Preparation "H" Cooling Gel in a pinch! Karen

    Mom calls it boiled dinner too! She can't eat it without her mustard pickles on the side, though! Gotta have her mustard pickles! I love sucking up the juice at the end! Karen Does she also make the Newfie Pudding? Don't know how you make it, but I know it consists of raisins, molasses and is boiled in cheese cloth...

    Wow! You got a double WHAMMY! Both countries have HIGH celiac rates! Karen
