    My elliptical is right on the other side of my desk, so I actually can see it over the top of my monitor. I have been glaring at it all day. Evil torture device. It feels good to be able to be able to exercise but I'm not fond of the whole getting used to it thing. Can we both just hide in closets until our bodies adjust? I'm too used up to cook, I'll...

    Those burgers sound delicious! I am happy to report that my first ever fried chicken (yes, ever) turned out freakin amazing. The only thing between me and a second piece was thoughts of buttoning my pants tomorrow.

    That makes two excited people, the other one being my husband who has been complaining that we paid for this thing and I'm not even using it. I should be excited, and I am excited about my ability, but the whole getting used to it again and sore muscles is not high up on my list of exciting things. Hopefully IH is faring better at the gym.

    Oh, and I should point out that my husband is an awesome kitchen helper. I think it is probably better that way than him actually cooking. I like the spare set of hands, and I like being able to heap vegetables on his plate when he isn't looking.

    So far the only brand of this that I have found is PAN. (While it does have a cc warning, the bakery I frequent uses it and tests it regularly and it has never tested positive for gluten.) It is not cornmeal treated with lime, which is an entirely different animal. Or corn as the case may be. Corn treated with lime is masa harina, precooked cornmeal is masarepa...

    I have a pretty fantastic husband, but I need one of them cooking men. He sounds awesome! I actually have to cook my own food like a normal human being. I suppose between all of the other amazing stuff mine does for me though I can learn to live with cooking for myself.

    Unfortunately, as pointed out, that Colgate is not corn free. I was attempting to find something corn free but couldn't. What I use has a xylitol that is sometimes birch derived and sometimes corn derived. Hopefully that Squigle will work out for you. You could, as a last resort, always take the old fashioned homemade toothpaste route as well. It won't taste...

    The plan was for fried chicken but I had forgotten to buy buttermilk. The milk from the dairy has been being rationed due to the tank being broken so I had to get regular buttermilk instead of making my own. Anywho, with my plans ruined for tonight's dinner and my chicken safely in a baggie of milk until tomorrow I managed to score a pork loin on sale while...

    http://glutenfreegirl.com/arepas/ I only make 1/2 or 1/4 even and just throw the whole cast iron pan right in the oven. I make them burger sized, so it makes either 4 or 2.

    Haha! I'm jealous though. None of the stores here have been having roasts on sale, not decent sales anyway. Maybe I should come to your house for dinner.

    I have been dying for burgers so I finally got myself to the store today for some shopping sans kid. I really love shopping during the day but hate shopping with a borrowed kid. Cooked up some arepas for my burgers and a pot of buffalo pepperjack mac & cheese. I scored a load of fresh fruits so I'll be following dinner with a bowl full of berries and...

    I find this highly amusing. Men are always complaining that we expect them to read our minds, yet can't just make the most simple requests of us!

    I had half an onion in the fridge so I fried it up, added some stewed tomatoes and put it over rice to go with my quesadilla. I have been neglecting my veggies lately because I have been worn down so much. I haven't been as responsible as I should be about my veggies lately and I need to knock it off. Bungee jumping is on my list of things to do one...

    You eat it all the time. If our mothers were right you would have turned into one by now.

    GAH!! It is past 3 and I have no stinkin clue what is for dinner. I have a block of pepperjack from the dairy that I get my milk from. Worst case scenario I will be 100% lazy and make quesadillas. The alfredo was almost successful. It didn't make me sick, apparently I have become sensitive not only to soy proteins but to soy oil and it made me lose my...

    No food is. I am trying to determine if it was some sort of fluke or if I really can't eat it. It is worth finding out because it is one of the hub's favorite meals. I want to make him happy, and he hates eating something he knows I love so much in front of me so he hasn't had it since the incident. I am hoping that whatever it was happens to be related somehow...

    I so love In&Out but haven't been there in forever. Burgers all wrapped up in lettuce, fries the way they were meant to be, just potatoes... fried, and shakes that make your hips 2 inches wider just while ordering. Maybe we need to plan an evening out this week. It has been a while (feels like a while) since my whole incident involving mac &...

    I'm sorta kinda here. I haven't been sleeping well so mostly I'm a zombie and lurking. Last night I managed maple glazed pork chops with rice and steamed corn. I had picked up a pack of 5 chops and my husband seemed to think I would cook 2 yesterday and the rest tonight. Yeah... I just cooked them all and tonight I'll throw them in the oven to get them warm...

    I sometimes don't think about the fact that when I'm online I'm not in my little bubble any more. This is a huge global community and even though I know exactly what I'm talking about I guess we all call stuff by different names so it can get confusing. Of course, I have this problem with my husband too so maybe its just me not making sense. Tonight...

    I don't really have anything special. Just pots for boiling and the general stuff, funnels, thingers to pick jars in/out of water, a massive stockpile of rings and jars. I just do it the way my grammy did. My MIL's husband is obsessed with trying to get me to add preservatives to everything and to use his pressure canner. Nope, not interested. I just smile...

    We name our holiday things, like turkeys, hams, etc. Our Christmas ham was George. He was huge, and we canned his leftovers. On the lids I labeled him G F George 2012. In my head whenever I see them in the cold storage I hear it in the old GI Joe theme song sort of way. I know it is probably lame, but it brings us no end of amusement. Home canned meats also...

    I was off the the doctor this evening. I love that they have evening appointments. Didn't feel much like cooking though, we broke out a jar of Christmas George and had some smashed taters and gravy. Yum! I was too busy doing 100 things to get my green beans cooking so I'll have some as a late night snack.
  24. Adalaide
    Hah! I felt the same way about my tyramine list when the doctor handed it to me. Good thing I live in the valley and don't have the energy to get to a cliff. Seriously, the list is a mile long list of HEALTHY FOOD! I was like what.... the..... hell..... ' And yes, it is a hoot. At least we have something to keep us on our toes into old age.

    Some months are worse than others, but I have periods from hell. Endometriosis is a blast. My cramps are so bad that about 6/12 months a year I spend 1-2 days a month curled up in bed completely non-functional. My hormones go completely whacky, PMS doesn't begin to describe how much fun I am in the days leading up to my period. On top of that, I have always...
