    Hahaha I've done this too. Those moments when you're looking at ti and thinking "dear God I wouldn't eat that if I was starving to death" and we get an easy out. It's way better than coming up with an on the spot excuse that manages to still be polite.

    I hope your mom gets feeling better. It's always difficult to see the people we love not feeling their best. I had an incredible three days. My husband got sick by the end of Thursday night so he only went with me one day, but we had a great time together and he got an awesome souvenir. I got to see an organizer have Bruce Campbell help him propose to...

    Try the local grocery store and see if the deli will sell them to you.

    Gonna make a pork tenderloin tonight. The cook it in its own bag type, no real cleanup and we'll have a bit of meat leftover for a few nights. We picked up some of those microwave "ramen" noodle meals for me for the next few nights so I'll have warm food before falling into bed. It'll be good to have meat to add to it. I am going to go fall off the planet...

    I did get it cut all the way up to my shoulders. It was quite a bit off, but not nearly enough to donate. Only about 4 or 5 inches. You have to have 10 inches cut off to donate it. I'd be bald if I cut that much off. Shoulder length is extremely short for me, and as short as I'm willing to ever go. It's layered and super adorable, I love it. I'm not having...

    Tragic... 2.5 hours to Venice. I'm sure we all are feeling sorry for you.

    You're funny! I shouldn't complain. He helps me cook frequently so it isn't like I'm alone in the kitchen doing all the work. And if I nag hard enough ask nicely I can get him to put the dry dishes away.

    It doesn't matter how awesome dinner is, I've never gotten my husband to clean up for me. I've gotten help, but he's never straight up done it for me. Maybe I'm doing it wrong.

    I don't have anything against baked donuts, I think that since they're available in stores for us though that some of us just really miss what we think of as donuts. And I try not to lie to myself about baked goods, there's nothing healthy about them anyway so I just do whatever makes me happy and try to eat in moderation. My exception to that rule is donuts...

    I don't think any of us were interested in a baked donut. I know some people look for a healthy version of every treat, and that's great for people who are into that. But when I want a donut, I want a donut and I know that from the start there is nothing healthy about it so I want what I remember a donut being so I want to go all the way with it. The good...

    Best donuts you'll ever have. http://www.glutenfreeheaven.com/~glutenfr/product_info.php?products_id=46&osCsid=a0141c21f0db51ccc5f6d75cd49bb1de#.VAUVXGOKX0d I can't even begin to describe how amazing these are. I end up eating so many I feel sick every time I make them because I just can't help myself. I do always make donut holes though because I'm too...

    It depends on the situation and what I'm going to. With comic con, it's right in their faqs that people with food issues can bring their own so I don't see the point in bothering anyone. Although it wasn't in their faqs in April until after I bothered someone via email and had gotten a response that bringing my own was okay. When we were going to a midnight...

    Ewww... unless it's one of the more fancy hotels that stuff is usually stuff I wouldn't use. Well, wouldn't have used before I turned into a hippie that doesn't use soap or shampoo. Then again I was always prissy about my care products.
  14. Adalaide
    I have gone 30-40 minutes up the freeway for exactly that. There is a place that is half bakery, half restaurant that is amazing. I always get a sandwich and a bunch of baked goods every time I go up. A bit farther up the freeway is The Pie. They're the pizza place that while not 100% gluten free precisely, they have a separate kitchen which is completely...

    It's been a super long time since we made any type of Asian food. I meant to on Saturday after the farmers market at the little Asian shop down that way for some Thai sauce but forgot to. The one up here in town doesn't sell the sauce we like. I have to go pick up some prescriptions tomorrow though so maybe I'll remember to stop in. I hate to make a trip...

    If they say anything just be like oh... I didn't realize I wouldn't be allowed to have it. Blah blah celiac... blah blah ADA accommodation... blah blah but if I have to I'll just put it away til I leave. Then just put it away after it cools off after every use.
  17. Adalaide
    There is some sick, twisted obsession with lean pork. I don't know what's up with that, but I always snag myself the beautiful cuts with some fat on them when I can find them. They're just so much tastier! Glad yours turned out good.
  18. Adalaide
    Sounds perfectly delightful over there! I'm enjoying our cooling off temps and a bit of an early fall here. It's still warm enough for capris and sundresses and all that, but not hot. It's perfect. I'm just making some battered fish and idk what to go with it tonight. Something easy. Doesn't matter, had egg, bacon, cheese sandwiches on english muffins...

    The nacho cheese taco shells are Old El Paso. They are gluten free. They are okay, but not awesome. I was not impressed. My husband brought them home instead of the usual white corn ones for me this last week. I'm glad we tried them, but I won't be eating them again. I'll stick to my white corn hard shells when I do hard shells.

    Some of these looked like interesting recipes that I think I'm going to try this fall. I thought I'd share in case anyone else might see something they like. http://www.buzzfeed.com/melissaharrison/slow-cooker-recipes-for-fall#uj61et
  21. Adalaide
    That's great, except when you need a scapegoat.
  22. Adalaide
    I'm the same way. I look up recipes online, use an AP flour as a sub in my regular recipes and generally get along just fine. This is my first gluten-free cookbook and it was a gift. Honestly, I don't know how I survived the last 2 1/2 years without it. I'd rescue it if the house was burning down!
  23. Adalaide
    I'll check my cookbook later when I'm in the kitchen, but my guess is there is something in the front of the book about how you're not allowed to post their crap on the interwebz. But even if I can, I can't recommend enough getting that book! There are just too many awesome things in it. I think tonight we're going to have some chile and garlic chicken...
  24. Adalaide
    Yes. I am just blazing through the book! I went last week and bought 5 more pounds of rice flour and I'll probably need more again next month. My husband says that they didn't taste like and english muffin to him. For me? It's been 3 years. I'm not sure I remember exactly what they're supposed to taste like. They were bready, light, fluffy, they split...
  25. Adalaide
    That whole $8 thing... yeah, that's a problem for me. I tend to stand and stare and stare and stare through the freezer door until I eventually walk away because ARE THEY FREAKING SERIOUS? Who pays $8 for english muffins? I still haven't talked myself into the baguette that everyone says is awesome and it's "only" $7. One day. Maybe. $7? GAH!
