    Thanks for this recipes Mini it looks VERY good. I love all those flavors. I have to wait and pick up some teff and garbonzo bean flours and I'll be making it. Gail

    You might be able to handle kirfir. Like yogurt or cheese it's fermented so much less lactose if thats all you are is lactose intolerent. Some people have a milk allergy and then it doesn't matter. Gail

    I use Health Valley. I find it in the health food or natural food aisle where all the gluten free foods are in my store. I won't use progresso because of the MSG reaction I'll get. IF you keep a food diary and have other reactions to food, chemicals or molds you might consider foods containing MSG. It is also disguised under different names if you want...

    Also, if celiac is an autoimmune response to food we are taking in, it would seem like a smaller amount of food being taken in would both decrease the chances of the food containing intolerable substances by making meals simpler and more manageable and also by giving your body less food to "act upon" , or trigger a response, if you will, by there being less...

    I was reading blogs the other day from people who are gluten free or celiacs. I usually gain insights or get good recipes from them. I read about a bad reaction someone got from eating strawberries. She had a horrible reaction and found out the strawberries were grown on straw beds. Lightbulb moment, I've been getting pain eating strawberries too...

    Tiffany your swiss chard looks gorgeous! We eat it all the time. My brother has a farm about 20 min. away so I just helped him put in the garden about a month ago. He does all the hard work I just showed up during the planting. And of course when the veggies start coming in. I spent half my years growing up on this farm and we always had a hugh...

    Strawberry time is here and I was wondering if you could share your favorite gluten free strawberry dessert recipe. Thanks, Gail

    Have you ever calculated how much fiber your getting? I was surprised to find out I wasn't getting that much when I thought I was. Your right about eating to much grains,..they can slow down transit time. It must be frustrating to not have formed stools. I'm not sure how to improve that. Maybe in time that will improve as the mucosal lining improves....

    I was reading the list for candy bars and Mars Almond bars were listed. I used to eat these years ago and loved them but I can't find them in the stores anymore. Are these still around? I'm so frustrated. I'm glad they're gluten free. Thanks for this booklet. Its great. Gail

    Happy Birthday Cathy, You bet me to 50 by a couple of weeks! Let me see.... I love the wisdom that comes with age. I'm not obsessed with fashion anymore so won't wear spiked heals. itchy lacey underwear, or the "gotta have it" latest fashion craze. I'm more loving and accepting of people. I used to hate it when people had different opinions...

    Thanks Tiffany for clearing this up. It didn't sound right to me and I'm sure we would of heard more about it by now if that were true. Gail

    So have you seen the flour chips? Are they a brown color or noticeably different then the corn chips? I hope they're made in a separate factory but I doubt it. I usually buy the garden of eatin chips anyway. Hopefully they stay with just corn. Gail

    At first I'd just eat simply, single ingredients. When you get hungry for bread it'll have to be made with baking soda or powder. I get a great millet/flax bread from Sami's bakery in Florida that you could get shipped but not sure how costs are for that. I get it at my local health food store. I'll post the link. Otherwise read ingredients lists which...

    I'm praying for a fast recovery. You'll do well! Gail

    I don't know if this link was inserted right but if it works I thought it would be nice to keep handy when you have a question about certain ingredients. I thought it was interesting what it said about Casein. Gail Open Original Shared Link

    I tried these and thought they were terrible. I guess the egg and butter, dairy, and refined sugar is what makes a cookie good. Really what do they use in place of these ingredients. My advice is to learn to make your own. Its really not hard to make cookies. Nana's a no go. Gail

    Hi Serena, Thats alot of symptoms to deal with! I have a few of them myself. The ones that bother me the most are the acid reflux and what seems like a long time to digest my food, which causes some of the bloating and burping. I was wondering what an alkaline diet looks like. What do you eat in a day. Does it matter if its cooked or raw? Thanks ...

    Happy Birthday Ursula Have a fun filled day. Gail

    I tried watching the show So you think you can dance and turned it off after 5 min. I'm not a big t.v. person although I like watching it, there are few shows that hold my interest. I like House though, but don't always get the chance to watch it. I like the sit coms because they're only a half hour and I'm always looking for a laugh. Mandy my sister...

    I've experimented alot with my diet since I've been gluten free (about 1 1/2 years.) I've known for years now that I can't handle alot of carbs so I also tried the Paleo diet and love being on it but my energy levels went down to low and had a hard time sleeping after awhile. I realized its probably cause I don't have fat reserves since I'm pretty lean...

    You could get a glucose monitor and check yourself with how you do with your levels throughout the day. I just did this myself and I'm one week into it. There were a couple of threads on blood sugars about three weeks ago and since my dad and brother are diabetic I thought its time I know how I handle glucose. I notice my morning readings are also...

    What a great show last night. So many singers I haven't seen in a long time. They all sound great and everyone looked like they were having fun. Its great that AI is a show enjoyed by people of all ages. There aren't many shows you can watch with your kids and you both enjoy it. I wish it wouldn't end but it did along with everything else. :angry...
  23. bluejeangirl
    I so disagree with Randy and Simon that AI is a singing competition and therefore the best vocals win. I wish they would define that better. If that were true then yes Jordin would win she was great last night. I'm so happy Simon complimented her.....finally. He was alittle hard on her. But if we expanded the definition of AI to performance and entertainment...

    Nancy Your a great mom and such a loving attitude toward your daughter. It really shows in your posts. This should be between you and your daughter and you shouldn't even have to worry about what your inlaws think. Try and stand up against their harsh judgements. The bottom line is your concerned with your daughters health and want her to feel good...
  25. bluejeangirl
    They not only sound amazingly good but they both have great personalities. Jordin's very sweet and loving and Blake seems to have strong character and very grounded. I liked how his dad is so proud of him it made him cry and Blake wanted to comfort him. Really I don't care who wins like you said they're both winners already. Both will get record deals...
