Tell him you just gave birth to the alien baby, then you can take off six weeks!!

:lol::lol:

Yeah....I will need at least 6 weeks after carrying the alien baby around for 4 years!!

Hi Samking

I see you already got a job and everything....things move pretty quickly here in R-ville! :)

I just wanted to stop by Rachelville for a visit...and say HI. =)

I admit, I had no idea what Rachelville was, until I pm'd JerseyAngel. I didn't want to seem like a dork.

So... HI! =)

Hi Jayhawkmom! :D No worries...we've all had our "dorky" moments here in R-ville...especially me. :rolleyes:

You must get the recipe and bring it back to your friends in Rachelville, it's your job, your duty :lol:

:lol:

Yes Mango....our queen has spoken! She wants muffins...the yummy gluten-free, cf ones you were bragging about last night....you know, the ones made out of almond meal....we want some!

Nope! I don't really like purple. And I didn't like pink very much until a few years ago....and I'm "old"!! :rolleyes:

YAY!! So glad I'm not the only one. :D

I did go through a very brief "purple" phase back in the 8th grade. Dont know what came over me. :ph34r:

I think I was influenced by Prince. :lol:

Rachel,

Why do I think his bark is worse then his bite? Afterall he didn't say anything about the orange jug.

Oh...he brought up the orange jug thing too. :rolleyes: I went back into the pages of the OMG thread last night.....never a good thing going back. I was lost in the thread for awhile but eventually found some stuff. OMG....I should not be held accountable for things I said while under the influence of sweet potatoes and yams! :ph34r:

Penguin....cute poem! :)

I'm not much of a city girl. I'm more of a living out in the country girl. Possibly I'll just come to town for gluten free food occasionally. Maybe I'll live on my own island out in your ocean? I dunno.

-Jessica :rolleyes:

:lol:

Ok...then. Jessica will be the "wanderer"....the free-spirited girl who comes and goes as she pleases. :D

Samking,

Sorry to hear about Luke. :(

Well with the exception of dairy cows and the 5000 acre horse ranch...........my parents house! ha :P

I'll live on my island, motor boat in for gluten free goodies and conversation. Meanwhile you can visit my lovely island whenever :)

Do you really want all of those free range chickens pooping all over the pristine scenery? :o

Our chickens will have to be trained like our geese.

Your parents place sounds wonderful. I love the country....just don't live in it. My hubby drives all day and we don't see him much some days as is so we live close to work.

You can live on the island.....Celia might want to join you....she loves the ocean.

Good Googley mOogley... gimme a job.

I answered Yep to all of the application questions..... am I hired?

:P

ROFL!!

Andrea...will you give the girl a job already!! :lol::lol:

EDIT: oooops premature post. I see she already has a job.

Luke was a throughbred, bay, no markings. Man, he was a sight! Tennesse's are a good ride... after some training that is!! I had this one pony, Beau, that I worked with. He WAS out to get me. He loved everyone but me. I'm not kidding. Anyway, one morning after a show I was in a rush to unwrap him so I just went into his stall and just as I was bending down to take the wrap off his front leg... BOOM!!! He headbutted me and knocked me on my a$$! A quick trip to the hospital and a mild concusion later, I politely told his owner that I wouldn't work with him anymore. What a little brat he was!

Ummm barista...just got back from Starbucks! Oh wait, shhhh, I'm supposed to be eating clean this week. :ph34r:

LMAO!!

Noooo....we do not! :o Judy will not want chickens pooping in her flowerbeds....I'm pretty sure of it.

We will have to find some that are trained. They will only poop in one designated area. :D

Maybe they will need to poop in the vegetable garden ... cows, too, without stepping on the veggies, of course! I'm not much of a gardener, but doesn't it need fertilizer?

We can get our coffee grounds at our local Starbucks, which will serve lattes made with Dari-Free!!

We should set up a Rachelville reunion! All of us could get together somewhere and make this wonderful place a reality. At least for a weekend!

Ok...then. Jessica will be the "wanderer"....the free-spirited girl who comes and goes as she pleases. :D

Oh well I'm the type of girl who will never settle down,

Where handsome guys are well you know that I'm around

I kiss 'em and I love 'em cause to me they're all the same

I hug 'em and I squeeze 'em they don't even know my name

They call me the wanderer , yeah I'm a wanderer,

I go around around around around

Well there's Moe on my left and Harry on my right,

And Jake is the guy well that I'll be with tonight,

And when he ask me which one I love the best,

I tear open my shirt and I show Rick on my chest, (ya ok maybe not so much here) :lol:

'Cause I'm a wanderer, yeah I'm a wanderer

I roam around around around around hmmm

Well I roam from town to town, I go through life without a care,

And I'm as happy as a clown,

With my two fists of iron, but I'm goin' nowhere.

Yeah I'm the type of girl that likes to roam around

I'm never in one place I roam from town to town

And when I find myself fallin' for some guy

I hop right in that car of mine, I drive around the world

And I'm a wanderer, yeah I'm a wanderer

I roam around around around around hmmm

SOLO

I'm the type of girl that likes to roam around

:lol::lol: OK I had to change the lyrics but that is what your post made me think of Rachel. That song immediately poped into my head!

Parents place is beautiful. My dad is a farmer and Rancher. Lots of open space. Ponds to fish in. Love to go visit because dad always says "need any veggies or meat". YEP!! Load me up please!! Farm raised beef is the best. It tastes nothing like store bought meat. YUCK!

-Jessica :rolleyes:

Hmmm....I'm thinking the cows doing their business on or around our nice fresh rachelville grown veggies is not a good thing. <_<

I hereby object to cows pooping in the vegetable garden! I OBJECT!! (In case you didnt hear me) :D

I'm sorry that happened. :( Horse trainers take lots of beatings. Do you think that could be part of the reason arthritis has settled in some of your joints?

I knew an arab who's name fit him to a tee. He was a mean, ornery horse to everyone and everything, including the mares. His name was el paso diablo (the devils song is the translation I think, someone correct me if I'm wrong). He died in a barn fire that took the lives of all the horses (30-40 of them). That was very sad. The community had a benefit show to raise money for the farm to rebuild. I had almost moved my horse back there a couple months before that too.

If you have any pictures of Luke I wouldn't mind seeing one if you put it on your avatar for a few days. Love the kitty picture too. Cats are my favorite house pet but I love dogs too.

Kris: Travel agent; Barista

Jessica: Our island resident and wanderer

If anyone needs (or wants) the full list let me know. I try not to post it much since it takes up sooooo much space.

samking72 Rookie

That's my little piggy inmy avatar. He's 1 year and 4 months and weighs 21 pounds!! I have him on diet food but he eats his brothers food when we're not home :rolleyes: I tell my little brother that he is singing in that picture. He's 3 so he just says "NO! cats don't sing!!?" It's adorable!

Great....now it will be in my head all day long. :rolleyes:

Cuz I'm a wanderer.....yeah a wanderer

:lol::lol:

Ok...just wanna warn everyone....you dont ever want me to sing for you....not even Happy Birthday. Rachelville will quickly become a ghost town....nothing left but the tumbleweeds. :lol:

I'd love that! I'm looking at ordering 100% grass fed beef from online. They deliver fed ex overnight. US Wellness Meats Online sells 100% grass fed beef for those interested....since Jessica already has her own.

Then maybe after their poop is composted, we need a poop hauler to take it over and fertilize the garden, the poop won't be smelly at that point. Might be an appropriate job for the town idiot! :lol:

The cows will be out on the range and won't bother us in town. They'll come in for milking (at least the milk cows) and shelter but they'll be on the outskirts of town.

Thanks for typing that up Chelsea.

I'll have to copy all these poems over to read to the kids.

Maybe I'll have to look at getting some Shel Silverstein books.

Make sure to check which books you get, not all of them are for kids :ph34r:

Sure cats sing....just not much by themselves. Usually takes another cat to bring their musical talents to the forfront. :P

Andrea...Can you add this to The Dave's job list?? He will be the towns poop hauler. :D

Kind of a punishment for going back into the pages of the OMG thread.... :P

morganb Newbie
How about travel agent and barista?

:blink: What a combo there, huh??

:lol::lol: As I was catching up I was about to mention that a barista would be good after I looked at your picture...but then as I read a little further I saw that you covered that :P

LOL We have the movie Grease, and of all the songs in that movie, my little girls started singing, "Look at me I'm Sandra Dee, lousy with viginity, won't go to bed till I'm legally wed ..." I asked them nicely to start singing something else, anything but that song ... if they didn't, no more Grease. I haven't heard it from them since.

Morgan, I love that picture, why don't you get it printed up and frame it for me for Christmas!! (If it can be, since it was taken on a cell phone, might not be big enough).

      Hello,   I contacted the makers of Alpine Original Spiced Cider Drink Mix and they sent me this email.....   Subject: [EXTERNAL] Fw: Ref. ID:1335211 Alpine Original Spiced Cider Drink Mix.               On Friday, December 6, 2024, 1:04 PM, Consumer <baking@continentalmills.com> wrote: December 06, 2024   Dear Janie, Thank you for taking the time to contact us regarding our Alpine Original Spiced Cider Drink Mix.

      @Rogol72, dermatitis herpetiformis occurs in a minority of celiac patients and if the OP hasn't developed it yet I doubt it will show up in the future. I think it unwise to use a scare tactic that probably won't materialize in the OP's experience. It has a good chance of backfiring and having the opposite effect.
    • Rogol72
      Hi @trents, You're correct. The OP mentioned fatigue and vitamin deficiencies as the only symptoms at the time of diagnosis. Since the family are not taking him/her seriously and find them to be too fussy, I suggested showing them pictures of dermatitis herpetiformis as one of the consequences of not taking the gluten-free diet seriously ... would make life easier for him/her, and the family might begin to take his/her strict gluten-free diet more seriously. A picture says a thousand words and the shock factor of dermatitis herpetiformis blisters might have the desired effect. The OP did say ... "How do you deal with people close to you who just refuse to understand? Are there any resources anyone could recommend for families that are short and easy to read?".  @sillyyak52, It might also help mentioning to your family that Coeliac Disease is genetic and runs in families. Any one of them could develop it in the future if they have the HLA DQ 2.5 gene. Here's a Mayo Clinic study calling for screening of family members of Coeliacs ... https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-minute-celiac-disease-screening-for-family-members/ https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-study-calls-for-screening-of-family-members-of-celiac-disease-patients/ I got glutened a few months ago because I missed the may contains statement on a tub of red pesto. It was my own fault but it happens.

      Thank you, Scott!  This is just what I needed.  Appreciate your site very much and all of your time and energy that goes into it! Kind Regards, Peg
    • Hopeful1950
      Oh yes.  I would never recommend taking it for an extended period of time.  When 70% of my body was covered in blistering itchy sores, an amazing doctor prescribed it diagnostically because I was unwilling to do a gluten challenge after already going strictly gluten-free in desperation after 10 years of suffering and being poo pooed by dermatologist after dermatologist. The fact that it stopped the itch and mostly cleared the rash after about 2 months was diagnostic for him.  I stopped it and have remained strictly gluten-free with very few flares since that time (over 10 years ago).  So the fact that it cleared the rash was diagnostic for me.
