    Sorry for hijacking (in a way) but can anyone explain why I never did bruise? I know it seems weird but I don't know if its related to people who bruised easily and now I'm more normal or just me being weird... Back when I was training full time I'd be doing the same class as everyone else and everyone else would be covered in bruises .. its like...

    LOL... Actually I think if they were a celiacs pans its possible to clean them ... basically using a drill and emery paper and actually taking off the layer then use oven cleaner in the oven and repeat and then re-annealing the pan with oil like you do when they are new.... However... overall... if your cooking for someone who thinks its OK to...

    If we are going to discuss legalisation/criminalisation then surely we'd be better discussing that incredibly wide spread and socially acceptable drug called gluten....

    Well I was laughing until I read that! AGGH... Its SO TRUE.... its like people spend so long just coming up with excuses NOT to be tested.... Pretty close to this is people who are "scared of needles" ... I mean honestly... and what makes me even angrier are mom's who refuse to have their kids tested because they don't want them to get a tiny needle...

    Hard to say specifically... for some reason I never understood I never bruised much anyway... Ive broken bones and the bruising has been barely noticable (which always made for bad diagnoses whenever I did). However I think I do bruise more eaily since being gluten-free... ?? but having said that just more "normally"

    Hey, I can hardly class myself as professional either (although I sell a few) You can check out flickr without joining and there's lots of groups for learning and stuff... A friend pushed me into joining and I was a bit retiscent but I was really quite pleasantly surprised... I belong to a few groups one of which is called "critique" where we all give...

    I'd say that there are no simple answers... What it comes down to is if you trust the source or not.... its not that different to buying ready made food... I think its a bit naieve to trust manufacturers without doing further research .... so it would depend where you are and what you buy ... If your buying it legally in Amsterdam then its at least...

    Much as I understand any worries I think that going with the doctors over this is a good idea... they know how strong those anti-biotics are and hence the idea for pro-biotics... After all the trouble and hassle Alex and you have been through I would think the thing that get her well again the soonest is likely the best... and getting her into a position...

    Intolerance to dairy is in two parts.... There is lactose intolerance which EVERYONE has after they are weaned... (to some degree or other) and casein intolerance which is the protein in milk. Lactose intolerance mainly (in simple terms) just means adults are not equiped to digest milk... the enzyme (lactase) which is needed drops off as we become older...

    Whereby its always better to be certain, its far better to post something your unsure about or have reacted to than not IMHO... i.e. If you post sometihng is safe then its mopre important to be sure than something is not... because at least the latter won't hurt anyone Herein lies the problem....IMHO... Its a bit of a crap shoot out there...

    I'm not sure if you want some constructive feedback or just a selection to enter for the contest? In the 1st case, just say so but you can also find some good places online... if you have a flickr account (or yahoo account you can get a flickr one for free) In the 2nd case then the terms of the contest are important, if its local then something of...

    Ive been away for a few days but I'll put my oar in again.... I think you realise already you are in a downwards spiral with this? You already took a huge first step in asking for help.... so I think in many ways you are ready... I think you can find more constructive ways to "hurt yourself" ... the one which seems the most productive is exersize...

    nah, its everyone else isn't normal...

    She's so correct.... We started a thread once on food that can be cooked in the time it takes to boil rice or cook gluten-free pasta... When you combine that with making sure you have a big stock of basics like tinned tomatoes and the like it really doesn't need to be time consuming... equally like Nanzie say's you can bulk prepare lots of stuff too. ...

    Just an observation but reminds me of a Penn and Teller episode in a way... If they tell you that 98% of people pick red hammer and you do then ... WOW its amazing so you forward it and then if 50% of the people (just randomly) then forwards it then its always being forwarded by someone who thinks WOW... As was pointed out the hammer is a pretty...

    Erm nope its got me stumped.... If it helps this was my thought process as best I can explain..... Hmm color and tool.... OK color's easy.. what's a tool.... well a camera is a tool and a computer is a tool but obviously I'm stretching this... hmmm what was the last tool in the sense its meant I used... drill ... my drill is green.... solves both...

    Is it vinegar you can't have for some reason or the gluten? Good quality (real) rice vinegar is gluten-free and the correct thing to use.... so you don't really need modifications. seasoning.... some nice toasted sesame oil goes a long way.... you can also roast onions or shallots (scallions?) until they get dry and add this to the sesame oil.

    If you are willing to cook your own food then theres very little you are missing out on.... actually I'm a bit biassed because I don't even think about lots of gluten-free products and rarely buy any of them....hence I don't really miss them. When I'm at home I eat "normal food" ; I chose from 1 of 50,000 gluten free recipees except I don't... I just chose...

    Her sleep patterns and delerium are easily explained by her running a fever and/or antibiotics and/or the other meds but perhaps not surprising considering what she has been through. Its also quite possible that the stuff she is going through is just the healing process. I realise it must freak you out but lots of illnesses our bodies actually feel...

    MSU.... this is exactly what I did with some corn tortilla's. Because I thought they were safe I kept them as a backup.... and I lost about 6 months of my life feeling crap and wondering what I was doing wrong... The problem is you never know.... you can test them one batch and be fine then another batch isn't.... and there is no logical way of knowing...
