    Sorry, kiddo. There was a famous blizzard in May, 1977 that I recall very well. I am thinking I was about your age (I was in college) Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link

    IrishHeart replied to cavernio's topic in Super Sensitive People

    And as always, this discussion (like all discussions on here) comes down to a personal decision to do what one may "need", based on what makes someone have what they deem a "gluten reaction" from a food that does not inherently contain gluten. We will all have to agree to disagree, I think. And continue to take whatever precautions one deems necessary...

    whew...for a second there, I thought you had forgotten your kid's name. Well, having all those Bills makes it easy when you have brain frogs. Just yell Bill! and odds are, someone will come. It may not be the Bill you had intended, of course.. Okay, it's 75 and sunny. Spring is here. about freakin time.

    I called it "gluten head hell " PLUS, I blame both of those, too..and celiac. I told ya, I blame celiac for everything. It's the ultimate scapegoat. Forget to do something? "Oh sorry, honey, gluten head." Didn't screw the top on the coffee mug quite well enough this morning. Set it down to tie my shoes, went to lift it by the top....it went all...

    I have similar issues with drugs, which is why I put up with chronic pain rather than take the stuff they give me, so no need to explain. The one that did not make me yucky for days was when I took just a teensy bit of xanax before a dental surgery that was going to last over an hour. Without it, I may have balked at doing it and it had to be done.. ...

    Klutzy is contagious. Hubs took off a bit of skin with the mandoline once, too, truth be told. That thing has been benched, I just blame celiac for everything. Easier than admitting my boo boos .

    I eat locally grown or organic and I wash them with warm water and brush with a veggie brush. exactly!. and my point was about rinsing the beans anyway-- the topic at hand.. I still cannot see washing berries, etc. with soap. Warm water rinses work fine. Buy organic or local .... less chance of pesticides.

    IrishHeart replied to cavernio's topic in Super Sensitive People

    I simply rinse them and I have no issues. I am a very sensitive celiac who would have gut pain, nausea, and whole host of issues,including neurological ones within hours if any gluten was "getting me".. I simply cannot imagine washing any foods in soap.. yuk. What will adding soap do that pure water rinses will not? Nothing. Sorry. If...

    I was reading that book in a public laundromat years ago and was still scared out of my head. I know it's Jack b/c I have a brother named Jack, an ex named Jack and one in my life right now....(i know, crazy) and it's a common joke around here.

    I had a blast using a paper shredder for 3 days. That thing is awesome! The things "someone" had kept "JIC"...oy. Everyone needs receipts from 1984 right? I should talk, I had student grade sheets, letters, evals, etc. from just as far back. I kept some of them because they meant something to me at the time. One read- through on a rainy afternoon and...

    Not I, not me. (I love doing that, did you notice?) LOL I keep sentimental stuff too, but the stuff you have not used in five years? Never going to use it. Let it go.

    Being a klutz my entire life and often covered in bruises and bumps from my many waltzes into door frames, cabinets I left open, misjudging sidewalk curbs, a. moving escalator and the actual size of the opening on the car door, and earning the nicknames "Calamity Jane" and Lucy Ricardo (you kiddos may have to Google those to get that part) I can relate. ...

    I'm a brutal task-master and have no qualms barking orders and tossing out things. (hard to believe, given how delightful and sedate I am, isn't it?) Shall I come over?

    But for you to get to the bottom of this and stop the madness and get your life back, you may well have to do this, Jo. I am not a drug pusher, but maybe you can ask the primary care doc for a small dose of xanax to calm you enough to get you to doctor visits. IMHO

    I love homemade tapioca pudding with fresh whipped cream....total yumsters. Enjoy! Dinner tonight is going to be escarole and white bean soup. Right after I finish cleaning the garden beds out. I'm on a mission....

    hey guys, Jo is in the midst of a gluten challenge, so we are cheering her on! https://www.celiac.com/forums/topic/101386-anyone-feels-worse-in-the-morning/?hl=%2Bdozey#entry865664 and yes, I am dancing because at one point, I could not even walk without assistance. Lisa was in the same boat, Jo and she and I are both so much better! ..........

    wow, I have never seen a rice cake with soy in it. Why the heck would they put soy in them??? . It's rice. Packed into a cake.Leave it alone. Companies do some strange things.

    The only day I want to see any snow: Christmas Eve. The maple tress are popping open, the lilacs are getting ready to burst open and it will smell wonderful for 2 weeks. The large bush is outside my bedroom and I will open the window. (even if it is too cold). The daffodils are open but the tulips are taking their time. I mowed yesterday. yup...
