    I was a day ahead of myself. I'm lucky I can even manage to remember how to tie my sneakers let alone figure out what day of the week it is! Tonight we're having pizza quesadillas. I can't wait. I'm so excited I want supper now.

    Catfish with a very mildly spicy tomato-y sauce type thing tonight over rice. Very yummy. Hubs is having a ham sandwich. The man has seriously busted taste buds. Oh well, I'll have an awesome lunch tomorrow. Have a safe trip Irish! I'm sure that the sun and beach and dolphins and all that will do amazing things for you. We all can't wait to hear about...

    You can read a statement about their manufacturing processes on their website. Open Original Shared Link I am going to again, quote a wise woman in stating that the world is a shared facility. Based on your comfort level with any certain manufacturer, you must make your own choices on whether or not you will eat products from a shared facility. Remember...

    I suppose at this point all I can do is connect with a local apitherapist and talk to my doctor about getting an epi-pen. I've talked to and read stories of true believers, and of absolute dissenters. People it has helped, and people who have tried it to no avail, even those who have tried it and had an unexpected allergic reaction although those were rare...

    I'm very excited for you. You absolutely have to bring pics back! I'm sure that the dolphins will be magical. I'm still kicking myself over the too soon elliptical. Can't sleep. Can barely... anything. Tonight is leftover porkies. I'll manage to roast a few more potatoes since the hubs seemed to enjoy them and I'm sure I can scrounge up something green...

    As a kid growing up in my house my mom bought bread. We referred to white bread as white bread and brown bread as wheat bread. In my grammy's house (where I spent a significant amount of my time, and much of it baking) we made both wheat and whole wheat bread. I knew, and my whole family knew, that bread is made of wheat. While I understand that it is easy...

    I don't consider some of my changes to be "gluten free" changes that cost money. So I buy Chex or Pebbles, I did occasionally before too. It just is more frequent now since I'm not buying so many other cereals and doesn't cost more than cereal did before. Where I used to eat, by myself, probably 2 loaves of bread a week, I now go through 1 loaf of gluten...

    We had snow yesterday and last night. It was lovely to have snow for the fireworks. We're also going to get more snow again. I am not thrilled. We wondered into a toy store at the shops and found they had all sorts of novelty sodas. He had banana (I tried it before he put his gluteny lips all over the bottle) and I had blueberry. Both were... interesting...

    I was feeling like something between a zombie and a person today so I thought hopping back on my elliptical a week post glutening was a good idea. Apparently I'm a moron. So regretting that decision. But, now that I'm back on the horse I have to keep up with it. Stoopid horse. Far too much pain and soreness and tiredness to cook for real. Popped a can...

    I love Groundhog Day! Phil? Not so much. Dirty rotten liar. It is snowing today.

    Before I had to give up nuts, I had quite a thing for the nut thin crackers. They are quite good and caused me no problems. I also explicitly trust ConAgra and their labeling policies, as I think you will find most do. There are companies such as ConAgra that are "safe" companies which have labeling practices and manufacturing practices that are in line with...

    I call every manufacturer, every time, before filling the prescription or buying a OTC medication. They are expensive and can't be returned if they contain gluten. Some websites for some companies will list if gluten is used or not in the product catalog, some are gluten free manufacturers, some are international with no phone number and I don't bother with...

    You could look into professional cleaning services also. I love slip covers though, it gives you a chance to spruce things up, especially with spring cleaning around the corner, and give the room a new look with a super cheap price. And with kids around and the inevitable messes, really easy to clean! I hated the idea of new furniture when my kids were little...

    Ah, didn't realize it was family to cook for. I know that I, and a lot of others, just don't eat at other people's houses, no matter what they say about how awesome they are at gluten free. It isn't an insult, just paranoia and self preservation. That's cool though that you're helping her navigate this new world. I don't believe in such a thing as too...

    Meh, I think we just have a jinxed February. It'll be behind us soon and we can all start over with a fresh and new March with spring right around the corner and we can all just start over with the fresh spring. I'm also looking super forward to plants and a garden and fresh vegetables again!

    That sounds fun. Glad you're feeling better enough for fun stuff. I'm hoping to feel like a person soon myself.

    There is some pork left so I can make my husband fend for himself. As for me, I slapped just a little pork and mac & cheese in a bowl and warmed it up to have along with the world's best soup. What is the world's best soup? Creamy carrot soup. There was a moment of panic when I couldn't find my soup cookbook, but that was quickly remedied and I imagine...

    I avoided seafood like the plague while I was low iodine. I imagine that salt would also be a problem with seafood. When I start to get anemic I get really serious cravings, all I want to eat is red meat and spinach. I can't eat spinach, but it has insane amounts of iron. Not sure what age group you are cooking for, or if they would like it but there...

    ARCHIVED Apitherapy

    Adalaide posted a topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    A show on TV initiated a conversation tonight with my husband about apitherapy, or treatment with bee products. Without really realizing what it was called, I was already doing this. I didn't think about it at the time that I talked about my allergies, but last fall I started using local honey instead of buying it at the store. I can't say that my allergies...

    I'm not doing too poorly today. I got out of the house to buy my own steroids, although I am way too foggy to be able to drive. I feel pretty much like I would if I had taken a narcotic painkiller, mentally. I get loopy and fun. And, I've been awake like all day! (This required vast amounts of dew, but it was call the kids day do I had to be up.) I am mostly...

    While some of the fancy stuff sounds good sometimes, I think I should be at your house for lunch. I managed to put a potato in the microwave today and slap some sour cream on it. Not exactly healthy but I mean, at least it was a vegetable.

    I don't know!!!! I had ham and scrambled eggs for supper Sat night, and all was fine. Then later we had some cake and blueberry sauce. The blueberries were in the freezer from last summer or fall or something. I don't know if I handled them poorly then, or did something when I made the sauce, or did something when I was getting the cake. But then I got my...

    I guess I'm different. I'm not a chip eater. I like them now and then, and when I get the urge I used to be all about the Pringles so now I just eat the Stax instead. Mostly because I am also a dipper. I don't eat chips because I want chips, I mostly use them as a dip delivery system. Meat though? Oh yeah, bring that stuff on! I stick almost exclusively...

    Chicken soup tonight. Something got me Saturday night and I was waiting hoping that I had random D that night but I knew. Deep down I knew. Yesterday it hit me suddenly like a ton of bricks. Taking it easy on my tummy with loads of ginger ale and bitters and chicken soup. Tomorrow if I feel like something a little fancier and feel like cooking again I'll...

    Adalaide replied to Adalaide's topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    Well, after reading up on Neurontin, finding out is the only of the three on the market long enough to have a generic I was automatically most comfortable with it. None of it's side effects seem horrible and so I decided to check out the others anyway. Seems that Lyrica shouldn't be mixed with my topiramate and that Savella is insanely dangerous to mix with...
