    Lollie -- I have that Red Checkered cookbook, too!!!! Have several cookbooks from different 'local' areas in different states -- I like to pick up cookbooks from the smaller area gift shops when we are travelling (the kind that are off the road and very quaint -- not the big-time, sell you anything, gift shops!) I'll bet the older cookbooks are GREAT! ...

    Okay, crying again . . . thank you, very much. I really appreciate it. Sorry you're sore, but (selfishly), I am so thankful that you did that for us. I know that good kind of sore feeling. It's invigorating. Thanks for a very selfless effort. Pauliina, you ARE a blessing . . .

    The Clan Thompson list posts the address, phone, etc., of each manufacturer on its list.

    On some thread, somewhere, someone wanted to know about vitamins and supplements. My dietician gave me information on these vitamains: Freeda Vitamins -- evidently owned by Dr. & Mrs. Philip Zimmerman "Seficially formulated by pharmacists, chemists, and nutritionists to avoid irritating additives often foundin many nutritional supplements" ...

    I'm just basically sticking with neutrogena. I did contact L'oreal -- endless COMFORT lipstick is gluten-free. I just sent a REALLY scathing letter to Covergirl, because I tried to find out about their newest lipstick. Got the same old CYA letter that you usually get. Tried to save the letter to post, but I'll get it back, I'm sure. UGGGGGHHHHHHHH it...

    Oh -- I forgot -- I also see a registered dietician -- she specializes in Celiac Disease -- and she is helping me to coordinate my new Celiac diet with a weight lost regime -- not an easy task, considering that I can't walk straight, have no muscular coordination (my brain just doesn't tell my muscles the right thing to do anymore!) and haven't figured out...

    Okay, you've got me in tears! That sounds like the most energizing, yet peaceful experience. What a beautiful thing. Thanks for sharing the experience, and thanks for cutting away for us. That was VERY generous. What a blessing you are . . . . . . Lynne

    Yeah, baby. Sure do. Please e-mail me your #. . . . Lynne

    First, ok -- where do I start??? Jen -- you said something hysterically funny, and now I've already forgotten it -- and I can't scroll down far enough to find it!!!!! Oh yeah -- THE BAG!!!!! I'll bet that plumber was freaked out! That was so funny! Christine -- Welcome -- you hit both cans -- first time out? I DO hope he was impressed Lollie...

    I do think it's a shame that we can't all be closer so that we could have a physical get together. I'm grateful for cyberspace, though . . . it let's me know that I'm not alone. (Especially being cooped up here all day -- who knows how many are in our community????) Lisa, I'm concerned about you. I've said some extra prayers for you, but I really...

    Cannolli -- forgot about that -- mmmmmmm....... Also, if you have Pannera Bread -- they used to make, only in the summer time, Peanut Butter & Banana bagels. Man, they were good! It was like eating bread, nuts and candy with cream cheese -- what a bonus! I miss California Kitchen's Thai Chicken Pizza. We used to get those in (they sell them now...

    Rachel -- it IS a good thing you've never had a Krispy Kreme -- the craving for it is AWFUL. When they come off the conveyor, right after they've been glazed, then they box them up hot for you . . . Holy mackerel -- there's nothing better! Once you eat them, you're hooked . . . .

    Welcome T -- you've joined a great group of people! With regard to my doctors, I see two neurologists -- my celiac is in my brain (NOT in my head!!!) . . . Lynne

    I have Sjogren's. Dry eyes, dry mouth, dry everything . . . . . So far, I'm just using Systane eye drops 4x day and Genteal gel at night -- doesn't do much, though. For the salivary glands, especially when they're inflammed, I suck on lemon drops. Makes the "back-up" sort of come on out! I also use moist heat to my neck -- sometimes I look like I'm getting...

    Ooooooooh! I love Kozy Shack Chocolate Pudding! I also like their Tapioca and Rice puddings! Meijer had them on sale buy one get one free a couple of weeks ago. I was like a kid in a candy store!

    I found some gluten-free chicken fingers at Whole Foods. Haven't tried them yet -- will put them in the convection oven to cook them, but will let you know if they're any good! . . . Lynne

    Lisa and Patti -- your posts made me cry, too. I am so sorry for you both. Patti, I have only been termed a "head case" for the last two to four years. I can't imagine 20 years. My heart goes out to you. You are such a good, caring, person and I want for you to feel so much better. Lisa -- I can honestly say that I know how you feel. I told my husband...

    Welcome, Celia Faerie Dust! I used to sprinkle extra-fine dust around my kids while they were sleeping (if the tooth faerie messed up), and called it faerie dust! I am passing on to them the remainder of it that I have, so that they can have it for their kids. I used to put it in heart-shaped containers (small -- necklace sized), and give it to my friends...

    Chelsea -- that is SUCH great news about your grandpa -- maybe my brain will develop new pathways. I'm going to go to an occupational therapist who treats children with brain damage. She does water therapy, but she is also certified in NeuroDevelopmental Training. (It's hard to achieve, so it's a BIG kudo). Maybe she can help my brain teach itself to...

    Nini, I CERTAINLY believe in miracles, and I believe in angels. Particularly those that are on earth -- the ones that we don't know are, but are all around us! I'll keep going back!

    I LOVE fishing! With regard to the shotguns, etc., I stink!!! I nearly tore my shoulder apart because I didn't place the butt of the gun close in my shoulder! Brandon, though, is a FANTASTIC target shooter. I use the thing to launch the clay pigeons -- if he does one, he hits it, then hits one of the pieces that breaks off it. If he does two at a time...

    That was the THIRD time it has happened to me. One time, it was when I was medically paralyzed, and I couldn't move anything to tell them that I was AWAKE! Yuck. I really didn't like that too much.

    Hey Richard -- It's good to hear from you and see your beautiful Grace! What the doctors have told me is that the damage that is done is permanent -- and my cerebellum doesn't have an uninterrupted circuit to control the coordination of my body. All of the research has shown that, once the damage gets to this point, the goal is to live a completely gluten...

    Jen -- I started shooting with my son -- I have a Colt Woodsman Target 22 -- it's a really nice gun. I used to be able to hit a 2 1/2" target (I'd put 3 on a tall stand) at 25 feet -- I'd hit 8 in the bullseye, and the 9th one would be in the 10. This one good old boy (we shoot at a place that is in inbred country), took about 25 minutes to line up his...
