  1. ......or pink! Nothing says carney like cotton candy. Boston baked beans? sweet Corn? hand made sausages? Carney food?!! Gasp! Generations of New Englanders in my family just collectively rolled over in their graves.
  2. Glad to hear it is helping and not causing problems! I really think if you go slowly, with child's doses--- and ramp up gradually, you will see the benefits and do just fine. PM me if I can help any further. Cheers, IH
  3. Guys, seriously??....lower bowel stimulants and various chemicals and dependency on them to "make you go"--- is not really healthy. Water. Lots of water. Start your day with 16 oz. of water. Please, just try the ground flaxseed meal in water instead of those OTC preps that will wipe out your entire gut flora. That stuff is designed for colonoscopy...
  4. Well, THAT just cooled ME off! hehe thanks, Beebs!
  5. yes! Drink a lot of pure water. Eat healthy, whole foods. It's temporary.
  6. We do not want to go too far off the topic or the original poster's question, but I will quickly suggest this: Children will transition faster. The "picky eater" ? this suggests to me that he has a gluten/dairy issue. (I was a picky eater as a child, too) That's all he wants? That's a big clue. Just approach this as "food" we are eating, not...
  7. Ah, a real Oregonian tells us the truth....so, for the most part, it is too wet! Bless you and thanks for the real answer....um, I do not need webbed feet. It's plenty wet (with snow) here in NY. A Bostonian by birth, I've had my share of the "wet stuff"....
  8. Chip and Dale, the resident chipmunks are eating the blueberries and hubs is not happy....I think they are cute. Him? er, not so much. Bella, the cat finds them "amusing".
  9. You got rain??? yaaaay! Send it up the coast to PA and NY, please? thank you!
  10. My friend's daughter lives in Portland. She just graduated from medical school there and she says it is paradise. She sends me pics and well, it sure looks like it. It's on our list too, J.
  11. I heard you sweetie! and I have always appreciated your advice. I have done the Biosil; I do take the Curaphen still--great product: I also tried Hyaluronic acid, upon the advice of my MT/PT and I just ordered the NeoCell Super Collagen. I also do flaxseed oil and L-glutamine. Little by little, I reduce the inflammation and I am not ready...
  12. I'm in agony from it. Neck, back, jaw, ear.... all my joints, muscles, tendons....I am in PT rehabbing right now. It lessens as the inflammation goes down, but I have a long way to go. I was UnDXed for years. You may see relief sooner!
  13. Well, good! Really, kiddo....this part of it is not much fun-- the beginning stages...But, in a few weeks, as you start to feel better, you'll be encouraged to stay the course. No fretting! Serves no purpose ---except it gives you sore shoulders, wicked jaw pain and makes your eyes all wrinkly ( & who needs that?) Cheers, IH
  14. aw, gosh, well, I love you, too. I hate to see a girl deprived of food---when there are so many options out there. Irish thinks you should come and clean her house. It would be very good for you! (probably not buying that one, eh? meh, it was worth a shot) Dinner tonight is: veal osso bucco in the slow cooker. My shoulder is...
  15. Other foods do not really cross-react or do any damage. You may have other food intolerances, but for most celiacs, those are temporary and resolve off gluten. (notice I said "most") You may be able to add those foods back in soon. I have many CNS symptoms and they are resolving slowly. It Takes time to heal. You will have to be patient now. ...
  16. I'm with you --I do not crave gluten. I miss cheese more than gluten. (dammit, I love cheese.) hey, you ditched the helmet! nice pic! Hubs agrees about the beer, but will slug down a New Planet or a Green's and say "it's okay!!". (and he gave it up voluntarily! his beloved Guinness--mother's milk of the Irish! I know--he's a G D saint!) ...
  17. She claims it's the Canadian postal service...
  18. (groan) Oh NO, you didn't say that....arrgh!! that's my Mom's joke. And it's not funny when she says it either. She also used to tease us with this nugget when we were kids: We'd ask "what's for dessert?" and she'd say "DESERT the table!". (groan) Geesh, my Mom was kinda mean, now that I think about it. I'm gonna call her right now and...
  19. can you have this? http://spoonful.com/recipes/blueberry-fool might be soothing... (I hate the dentist)
  20. Lucky!! My Mom never made doll cakes.... waaaa. when I come to visit, will you make me one? For dessert we are having: fresh blueberries and the new ice cream maker is still in the box (we wore the old one out years ago) We are on diets.
  21. It cooled off to the 80's yesterday and it should be this way all week here in NY. It's only 75 right now. (I like it hotter, honestly) Like Sylvia, we need some rain or the grass will be toast soon.
  22. You KNOW Annalise Roberts? And you didn't tell me?? and you're on a first name basis? Cool! hey, tell her my lemon bars were a hit--but that you have to dust them with confectionery sugar in the back seat of your car. Gotta love a woman who even HAS a Kugelhoph pan!!!!!!! I betcha LOVE2TRAVEL has one, too.
  23. The link does not work, hon. Try posting it again? There is no cure for MS --or any other AI disease---as far as I know. There are treatments and ways to put the symptoms into remission. My friend Suze did the same thing by going sugar and grain-free 25 years ago, avoiding a wheelchair and running the Boston Marathon. But she still has MS.
  24. let's see.... brown rice is good for you, flax is good for you. It made you happy. totally healthy
  25. It's 20 ppm here too. Open Original Shared Link (And it's just as nerve- wracking when you can tell there is gluten in them, believe me---I pay for it for weeks. Most everything we do is a bit of Russian roulette, yes?) But some people are not comfortable with this level either and that is completely understandable, so, everyone needs to decide...
