    You are too sweet. Hey - did you ever decide on a birthday cake? I have been away from this forum since Friday night so I have some catching up to do. Did I miss anything thrilling?

    Incredibly delicious Welsh Rarebit. For those of you who are unfamiliar, it is basically thick toast covered with a mixture of cream, eggs and cheese that is melted on top until ooey gooey. Then it is drizzled with Worcestershire. First I will spread the bread with bacon jam to kick up the flavour even more. Traditionally it contains Guiness.

    It is fabulous as a glaze for pork, too. I want to try it on duck as well. Makes awesome crostini (with cheese). I'm making a gluten free version of Welsh Rarebit for lunch and will spread the toast with a smear of bacon jam before adding the remaining ingredients. Should be wonderful!

    To free up room in one of our freezers we are having roast turkey tonight. But no ordinary turkey - it is free range and I'm basting with an herbed butter. Starting roasting at 500 then cranking down the oven to 350 after 30 minutes to get a perfect skin. It will be succulent, tender, moist and full of flavour from the inside as I am stuffing the cavity...

    Smart man. Awesome (and cool - get it?) video. Get this - we live north of Edmonton where it is even colder. In fact, the other day we were 18 degrees colder than Edmonton. Where I live is a pocked of extreme and severe cold. Thanks for thinking of me and my trials and tribulations!

    Yes - very obviously. I used to dread dental appointments as the scaling especially hurt so badly and my gums bled like crazy when it was done. In fact, I was so chicken that my husband booked my appointments without my knowledge and took me on those days. I had no clue when it would happen until we drove up to the dental office. He even had it arranged...

    As if. Photo required. You are adorable, inside and out! Maybe I should buy myself an all-body swimming dress in black so it is slimming.

    How lovely, Irish. Man, I may have to take on that project myself. My husband and I have a very exciting life but to do something new/renewing something lost monthly is fantastic. There are so many thingers on my bucket list, too. And many are...ready for this?...food related! Shocking, I know. Swimming with dolphins would be up my alley (I love...

    It is so great that you had such a fabulous day. You deserve it! And you are one cute girl. I understand your passion for giraffes. I am that way with a few things but the most recent is at a klapa concert in Croatia where I got to meet the (a capella) singers after (unplanned - this group is BIG and they were not announced to perform). The group...

    Really and truly? That would be AWESOME!!!

    Not me. I was diagnosed as a silent celiac and have been strictly gluten free for about 19 months now. As far as I know I have only been accidentally glutened twice. The only way I knew is that I found that one product packaging had been labelled incorrectly; the other was in a restaurant in Europe that caught my mistake after the fact. Didn't get sick...

    My teeth are living proof that celiac can indeed cause dental problems. My tooth enamel was very weak and my teeth were extremely sensitive. I didn't really think much about it until my diagnosis. After being gluten free, my dentist was shocked on my subsequent checkup. My enamel had strengthened a great deal. My teeth are no longer sensitive to hot...

    Through routine bloodwork it was discovered I have celiac disease. I did not see it coming whatsoever. I was not sick! You would not believe the shock. My doctor made me have biopsies done, partially so I would believe it. Well, my villi were perfectly flat. t took a few months for it to sink in. After the biopsy scare I made a list of 70 some things...

    I'm late to the party but have a great rest of your day! I hope you are very, very spoiled and enjoy some amazing food and other thingers things. When you used "thingers" yesterday I laughed out loud. Your sense of humour is so very refreshing! I love reading your posts.

    Sounds as though you are perfectly suited for the job. If the CM do not show up first, perhaps you can take care of "business". You have a lot of practice. Vastly more than me, for example...

    Ok, ok. I'll take care of mine if I must.

    Only if you can guarantee it won't be over 80F. I am not heat tolerant at all. But the idea of playing lots of no bridge is very appealing. Your dinner sounds great.

    I was sick from going through withdrawals from a very strong drug for pain. The withdrawal symptoms lasted for months so everywhere I went I took a bag with me just in case. A really gross feeling to be certain. Motion sickness is tough. Are you able to take Gravol? That is what I used to take because I was vomiting so often that I became dehydrated...

    I know how you love pizza. That reminds me - I realy need to make some soon. You know you are always welcome to come try out our temps. All four shovels are still in the garage. Maybe you'd grow to love it! Or maybe not so much...

    For ages I was obsessed with my health (serious chronic pain I have had for five years now that never goes away) and it was not healthy. It is difficult not to obsess. I know. Thankfully I no longer do that. Rather than focusing on my health I do things I enjoy. Someone mentioned sewing, etc. Glad you and hubby watched a movie together recently. It...

    Pretty much. Northern Canada. Same thing. The other day when it hit -10 people were walking around with spring jackets and some even wearing shorts!! To us -10 is nothing. We find -30s very cold and -40s downright unbearable. I live on the prairies so windchill is almost always a factor, too. Very windy with very few trees. So, it can be -40 but with...

    Sylvia! I've missed you around these here parts. Welcome home!
  25. love2travel
    Um...we've not warmed up to -10 since the middle of October except for one day recently. It is usually about -22 but next week is to be -30 and colder. We'll likely go through the usual -30 to -40 for ages. Not looking forward to it one little bit.
