    Soy Free

    Well, after gathering some info from the experts in the forums, I concluded a while ago that I was soy intolerant. Two days ago I completely got off it. The reason I didn't do it sooner is that I had a whole bunch of teas from Christmas that had soy in them...so I finished that and then completely went off soy. That and now I make my own chocolate chips and...
  2. Is there anything else your daughter can't have? Before I went soy-free (two days ago), I found that a mix of just canned chicken, corn chips, and some type of vegetable works well. Millet is also a good replacement for corn chips if you want to do it that way.

    Life

    It's been a little while. I've been brainstorming, doing schoolwork, playing LOTR on my flute, and being generally unusual. Recently my younger sister had to be taken to the hospital. Recently meaning ten minutes ago. We think she has a concussion. She's four. Isn't it scary how life is so fragile and it can end in a moment? I've realized it several times...
  4. I've heard that root beer and cream soda are not gluten free.

    New Year

    I don't see what's happy this new year, and I don't know who coined the phrase "Happy New Year", but the year ahead is looking pretty bleak, what with the economic downturn and Obama's inauguration. So I say, "What's happy about the new year?" But don't listen to me. I'm a cynic if there ever was one. Dad's said he needs to replace me with a human, I guess...
  6. So far only one got sick (my older brother; but not anymore) enough to skip meals. Bits of colds are flying around but nothing TOO bad. Wow, I can finally read the time any time I want because I have a watch that actually WORKS. (How long has it been since that's happened?) And the backpack and story binder are perfect! Great Christmas! Anyway... Christmas...

    Christmas!

    Merry CHRISTmas (and none of that 'happy holidays' junk) and a JOYFUL New Year! Celebrate Jesus, celebrate! He is truly the reason for the season! This isn't long, but I just wanted to swing by and wish you the Joy of the Lord all year round!

    Christmas Eve

    Until now. That's how long it took. To water the chickens I had to use some water from the greenhouse. Dishes were done by directing madly spurting water into containers and heating them. I have a few burns on my hands from the water and the pots. The water came on about ten minutes ago, and we finally got the ability to flush the toilets and get a drink...
  9. Proof of the varying, useful lessons of being homeschooled: Learn how to increase water pressure (that outcome is hopeful) First turn off the well pump. Partly open water filter containers and find out that turning off the water didn't work it's apparent purpose (i.e. turning off the water). Screw containers back into position and call Dad to find...
  10. The chickens decided to make me happy and turn in the full quota of eggs today. I needed that and the chocolate ice cream I described before to get through geometry. I hate that particular subject. People say that if you like logic and reason you'll like geometry. I love logic and reason. Something tells me that the people who took that survey weren't on...
  11. We had a fire station field trip today with four and a half other families from church. It took 45 minutes, then they all went to our house (which was a minute of driving away) for a bag lunch. We had a 'fire drill' and most of the people ran outside. I hadn't heard and went into the house only to find it "burning". One of my little sisters, who was outside...
  12. Is he a Christian author?
  13. I came up with a pretty quick recipe for pumpkin bread. Pumpkin Bread 2 eggs 2 tsp. vanilla
  14. I agree, and I think it may be the other way around as well. The younger teens might want their own section, but I think that there are a lot of college-aged people who would like their own forum.
  15. I know a bunch of the people here can't have a lot of things. Providing that you can have corn (and even if you can't), there's a flexible throw-together I've come up with, since my meals often gets forgotten by the rest of my family. Corn chips Canned chicken Vegetable/s I like using bell pepper, caramelized onion when available, and/or cabbage...
  16. Would really dry skin be a symptom?
  17. Sorghum and coconut flour are some good choices.
  18. I'm here again...and I'm bound to go off on random thoughts if I don't get an idea now. Ah yes, why not. The fine points of writing. Why not? Because I wouldn't have any tips. Then why not some of the things I've been writing? That sounds much better because you have something for it. Sorry...I was having a conversation with myself. ...
  19. I like this one... Banana Bread 1 1/2 cups mashed ripe bananas 1/3 cup oil 2 eggs, lightly beaten 2 cups rice or bean flour blend 3/4 cup brown sugar 1 1/2 tsp xanthan gum 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp baking powder 1 tsp cinnamon 1/4 tsp salt 2/3 cup chopped walnuts (optional) 1.Mix mashed bananas, oil, and eggs together in a large bowl and...
  20. Where do you live in North Carolina? I live in the Raleigh area.
  21. I never thought about the mucous -I've had a constantly stuffed nose and just assumed it was allergies. I guess it might not be. I think that's exactly what's happening to me. I got a little better, then started getting worse and came to a standstill. A lot of the things I'm eating now have soy in them.
  22. Are things like sharp abdominal pains symptoms? And would there be anything special associated with things like constant back pain and joints cracking, or constant fatigue? I'm already off gluten and casein.
  23. What are the symptoms of soy intolerance?
  24. Sometimes I get frustrated too, being the only one in my family who has a gluten-free diet. They think that maybe 'a little bit's okay' since that's what it's like with my older sister and carbohydrates. Are you the only one in your family with celiac?
  25. I have woken up with a headache -not a really bad one, but one that stays with you as a dull ache throughout the day. Add to that the fact that I stayed up late three nights in a row so I'm tired as well with a fatigue that sometimes defeats my will. We decorated our four-foot, fake tree last night. Dad is allergic to tree pollen -as am I. Allergies run...
