ARCHIVED Palm Pilots
jenvan replied to Lisa's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have Clan Thompson software on my treo and love it. Who's going to take a binder to the store with them? And often times I just need to ck on a few things. It comes in very handy when I am getting something that isn't a regular purchase, and it brings piece of mind just to be sure on some products. It is also updated several times a year. I do recommend... -
ARCHIVED Any "home-canners" Out There?
jenvan replied to jenvan's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
8 feet! The most I've ever experienced was when I was moving from PA to IN...We got something between 3 and 4 ft. My dh is dying for a huge snow ever since he got his jeep--he sees himself scaling 7 foot walls of snow in it and pulling out people with "regular" cars Shirley-- If you ever have digital images of your land I'd love to see them sometime... -
ARCHIVED I Need Help
jenvan replied to tiredofdoctors's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Makeup, yes... Where you want to draw the line is up to you I guess... But for myself, I decided I wanted NO products in my life with any gluten in them. Lipstick etc. are a must--you ingest those. I also definitely say to switch out your soaps, shampoos, lotions... Your mascara isn't probably such a worry...but better safe than sorry I know it can... -
ARCHIVED I Need Help

Good for you getting rid of the 'bad' products. I've given bags of products away to friends this year! At the bottom of this post I've put directions for getting the Delphi list. Also--if you are looking for products to switch too, you can read this recent post on just about all the products I use now. Open Original Shared Link Hairspray--I use Giovanni... -
ARCHIVED All Or Nothing?

Nothing more for me to add... Just wanted to say that reading this thread makes me wish I would have won the lottery rather than that person in Oregon, so I could have given it to Celiac research.... -

Susan- Don't you hate it when you don't hear back from companies. I've gotten so that if a company doesn't respond or gives me a shady response, I move on to another brand. ...(still transitioning)... -
ARCHIVED I Ate Gluten....and I Feel Great
jenvan replied to Janelson's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Before I was diagnosed I could eat a bowl of pasta and not notice any immediate gastro issues...so symptoms or reactions aren't always a good judge... -
ARCHIVED Any "home-canners" Out There?
jenvan replied to jenvan's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Wow-environmental science... I guess she has a natural advantage! I am curious how the lifestyle choice has impacted them financially--have they discussed that at all? It is easier or harder on a single income and home-growing? Not only do I get satisfaction from working with my hands/outside etc, I think there is an integrity to doing your own natural... -

Lynne and Shirley- Ah--I love hearing these stories too I can't imagine my life will ever permit me to live like you have Shirley--but I would love to try sometime. I find such satisfaction in working with my hands. ie. growing veggies in my garden, canning them, using them throughout the year and giving some away as gifts. I would love to try and... -

ARCHIVED Organic Gluten-free Shampoo And Conditioner
jenvan replied to RFisher1974's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
good question i'm all about the organic/all natural products. As Berneses said, I definitely recommend Aubrey Organics (fav Rosa Mosqueta shampoo). Just be sure to ck ingredients. There is also Giovanni Hair Care products--their entire line is organic and gluten-free. (Even their Golden Wheat Shampoo--it actually has no wheat in it!) They have gel... -
