  1. i hate to say i told you so, coots, but...............(<wait a minute. i LOVE to say that!!!!) I TOLD YOU SO but, i'm glad you contacted the company and got your info first-hand. their plant is in hackettstown, nj - about 20 minutes from where i used to live. i used to deliver paychecks to the cleaning crew up there (and i worked in the office...
  2. lolz - right i'm glad the season is over, this year! (that's not to say i won't start counting down to daytona any day, now )
  3. yeah! got me some nuts today from nuts dot com - they are ON IT - i ordered them online tuesday night and they arrived today i completely over-ordered LOLZ but i'm sure i will find something to do with (pecans! who doesn't like pecans!) them - they sent a little sample of golden flax seeds, too, i have no idea what to do with them and i also got some...
  4. ME TOO! it's kind of a crappy, cloudy, blah day here today. husband is still in the woods, hunting the elusive bambi, so he will probably like something warm-ish expecting the first of the onslaught of family tonight - here we go! it's a daughter and a grandson, sights for sore eyes sister and her hubs are tomorrow. they are trickling in lolz
  5. aww - poor guy but he has a little of that extra weight to help him and if his guts are healing, it might help him fight off the infection. plus, look to the future: he probably won't catch every little virus that goes around, because his immune system will be working correctly to fight germs instead of gluten. don't beat yourself up too much, mama!...
  6. i WOULD cook my own and say 'these are mine' !! what is wrong with these people, what are they, the candy police?? WHY can't you cook a chicken and bring it?? for people who are going the non-traditional route (SUBS for t-giving? not exactly turkey and sweet tater pie...) you would think they wouldn't care what you brought. if i was going to go (and...
  7. in the meantime, a long black sedan pulls up in front of your house. giant red and yellow m&m's emerge from the vehicle equipped with ak rifles........ kyle busch is doing burnouts on your lawn, somebody is feeding your dog chocolate...... milton hershey is rolling over in his grave... don't mess wit m&ms
  8. who needs a spoon? i'm just gonna lick it out of the container......
  9. oh, yeah, i almost forgot: my new favorite food group is GELATO!!!!!!! o my gosh, it is awesome - i got haagen dazs <i couldn't find anything questionable on the label and so far, so good......... but i did see the talenti at the grocery store as well. if i have any kind of reaction, i will try those next. sea salt & caramel is da bomb....
  10. drooooooooollllllll!!!!! tonight i am playing with my food - got some pizza crust in a container - maybe a white greek pizza and some stromboli <check me.... rolling dough, oh, yeahhhhhh..... got a bunch of spinach, bacon, feta, greek yogurt/onion/garlic for sauce, and yummy italian meats and provolone for stromboli. probly cook down some tomatoes...
  11. lolz, love2 - i still had some of my welsh 'fakebit' left, so that's what i had, on toast - no bacon jam - but i did use the tomatoes from the garden - YES i am still having fresh tomatoes from the garden! i picked all i could find the night before our first predicted frost, and they are ripening on the back porch. dumb things, don't they know any better...
  12. milky ways are not on the safe list, mini or not. m&m mars is pretty good about labeling their products, so if it says it may contain wheat, i wouldn't eat it. i don't eat too much chocolate because i have a secondary sensitivity to soy, and soy lecithin makes my insides wonky. just make sure you check the labeling i have been to the m&m mars...
  13. what is caused by cat menopaws, alex? i'll take animal aging for 300....... do y'all mean OVEN MITTS??? hot pads, lololz (i just wash mine)(they don't see much gluten - husband has no nerve endings left in his fingers, anyway - "if you want that bread, you better get it out. and, don't use my oven mitts....." )
  14. whew! saying a prayer for my thyroid. and y'all's thyroids. (my sister has issues, i suppose it's a matter of time) i thought celiac and the'betes were complicated! i'm from jersey, tonalynn, but i live in tennessee. here, there and everywhere: people are dumb about gluten jersey people will fight about it, tennessee people don't care that they...
  15. lolz - barty, you're famous i AM diagnosed, formally, medically bona-fide celiac. how about i consider *that* the miracle? i also know that i am one missed test, one wrong test, one dumb doctor away from still being sick or dead with NO DIAGNOSIS. my gp was down to his hail mary play, and he happened to be right, this time, after 25 years of missed...
  16. so, we agree. type 1 diabetes can not be cured with a diet switch. i agree that type 2 is different especially for the obese, but a diet can't make your pancreas start working if it's shot. and, if by cured, you mean that her glucose level is down to normal range, well, i guess my kid cures himself every time he gives himself a shot. is that what you...
  17. yumm that could work - and would be pretty easy to keep warm/reheat if i need to i already have most of what i need - great idea!

  20. hi, jon - welcome to the forum. most of us were clueless when we were first dx'd, so don't feel alone! there is a thread on the 'coping with' section of the forum called 'newbie 101' - go ahead and read it. it has alot of helpful info that you won't get from a dr or nutritionist. you and your family will have to make adjustments but living in a shared...
  21. crab bisque welsh fakebit because i put tomato in it lolz i could not help myself it was good, although i think i need to use something other than just rice flour for roux for the cheese sauce (NOT tapioca! talk about *rubbery* the stuff looked like pulled taffy) the bisque was awesome - i even used hot sauce in it that i concocted from the garden...
  22. udi's makes pretty good baguettes, also against the grain. rudi's has sandwich bread i absolutely adore. i toast everything LOLZ i could eat rocks and not cut the roof of my mouth i have such a callous hahaha! i like tinkyada pasta, it's very forgiving and doesn't fall apart as easily as corn pasta. they make lasagne, too. i have had d'oro orzo and it...
