  1. here's an email i got from Laney, who places the wine/beer orders at Fowler's, a gourmet cafe/grocery at Brightleaf Square in Durham, NC. FINALLY!!!!! paula ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hey Guys! I'm excited to introduce a new brewery that I've been waiting for a long time to come...

    ARCHIVED Quote Of The Day

    <moon unit's doc "Well if someone doesn't have symptoms, it doesn't really matter whether or not they the disease, does it."> that is CLASSIC. i bet he cleans his house by throwing all the garbage into the closet. and viola, "service your husband" - HOLY COW. what a freeeeak! mine seems pale in comparison to y'all's, especially those of you...
  3. i'm sorry you can't sleep! i have issues with this too, not bad right now, though, thank goodness. re: your sleeping problem, my first thought too was thyroid. is your doctor one you love or a dismissive one? cause it's been my experience that what doctors consider "normal" range is really quite expansive and arbitrary - what's "normal" to one person...
  4. if you're somewhere warm, you can be lazy AND brew tea bags - in the sun! (garnish with hammock) I brew herbal teas (all the zinger flavors, or orange mandarin, or other fruit teas) using my signature Lazy, Cold Steep method: Three bags (four if you like strong) per pitcher. Put bags in pitcher. Fill pitcher with water. Leave on counter...
  5. thanks for the congrats. i'm new at this cooking thing too, but still alive, no salmonella! our grandmas did this all the time right? and we generally have much better fridges than them. and fancy restaurants do it too - all the homemade red pepper mayo, garlic mayo, horseradish mayo, pesto mayo, aoli (italian mayo ), etc. i think bluejean...
  6. it's a potential CC issue. i don't have a link to it, but there was an earlier thread on liquor drinks, and a celiac former bartender says she *never* has anything out of the gun because they dip it right into every drink! so you might get a Bacardi and coke, for instance, but the gun was just inside someone's bourbon and coke. [for the record...
  7. i agree with guhlia 100%. i am pretty confident i would start crying if i were surrounded by a convention hall full of gluten-free food and sympathetic celiacs. cook-off = brilliant! (sponsored by ...etc etc etc); booths thing = genius. that would be *so* much better than ordering food online to taste it. guhlia, i see your pipe dream and raise...
  8. GRITS! But you probably won't find any up north where you're headed - it's a southern thing. It's basically polenta, but we eat it for breakfast with butter, salt, pepper, sometimes cheese (delicious!!!!!), and in the coastal regions - a shrimp sautee - this is called shrimp n' grits and is awesome. equally awesome is stirring your bacon and eggs into...
  9. I'd agree with Nini. Dr. Rudert is extremely nice, but expensive and doesn't file insurance (I think the first visit is $250, then $100some each after that, PLUS labs). And if you're already on the diet, testing's likely to dud. I would suggest instead seeing an allergist specialist to help you diagnose your other sensitivities. There are some skin...
  10. ChelsE, I have put some time and hands-on research into this very topic. Re: tonic - doesn't it come out of the fountain gun? Most every "mixer" would, except juices, red bull (I wouldn't get it if it's from a tap, though)... I'm also dicey on all the "well" brands of *any* liquor - the generic stuff you get when you don't order a "call" liquor...
  11. also you might want to check out: Open Original Shared Link they're in New York and it looks like they have leads on a bunch of restaurants and markets up there. have fun! paula
  12. If you mean the Carrot Day (or Night) Creme, it has gluten in it. Below is the the list of Burt's Bee's products NOT to use. Paula --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you for contacting Burt's Bees. The Quality Resources Department Manager has put together a list of products that SHOULD...
  13. that is *simply awesome*. i live right next door to the hippie store for convenience's sake. i think i'll go cut the neck out of a sweatshirt and dance around singing that - maybe someone'll throw a bucket of water on me and make it *just like* flashdance.
  14. you can count me in with the other "half-way through tantalizing forbidden food, when i suddenly realize what i'm doing and freak out" dreamers. boo! also, dingogirl, some of those anti-depressants can make your dreams *vivid*. how is the wellbutrin working out for you? paula
  15. if you're not familiar with it, ECOVER is the brand usually carried at co-ops, Whole Foods, etc. here's their website: Open Original Shared Link I had been having persistent unexplained problems and it finally dawned on me to check on my dish liquid - good thing I did!!!! Now I just have to finish washing every single surface, utensil, dish, glass...
