Good to see some psillies returning to the fold :D

OMG ... McDonalds Poutine :lol: .....WIH?!?!

Always fascinates me the differences of the menu of Mc D from country to country.

In Turkeh... they have some sort of soup available :unsure: of undetermined origin.

That's just reminded me..... we noticed on nearly every restaurant menu in Turk-eh had 'Chicken chops' listed.

Never did find out what it was....but when I popped to Tesco today, Tel asked me to ''pick up some o' those Chicken chops while yer out''

...making me giggle for some reason :lol: imagining asking for 'em....

laURA... I didn't know you lost your kitteh :( ... so sorry x

OK, bracing meselph for the my phirst meeting wiv Sven after 2 weeks and stones of extra weight :blink:

Chicken chops?? What in hell? Are those chicken mouths? Do they even have mouths......beaks?... ..... . . :huh::rolleyes:

..which also reminds me...EM!..how's the phoot???, did you have the dexa scan?

Bah.......had more Xrays done.....it is definitely a stress fracture, likely over an old one that I never knew I had. :huh: Too much pounding overuse through the years........too much crazed, maniacal dancing with POeter on those terrazzo dancefloors. . . . ... .... :PB)

I am not back to running as yet. I continue to swim (despise this), bike (dislike this) and climb onto the trusted ol' elliptical machine.

It is very slowly getting better. .. . .....thanks fer askin', Nik!

OMG, THE DANCING!!!!! I gafawed out loud, I'm TOTALLY making one of those :lol::lol:

Was the oldest's 1st day of school today, dropped the baby off at preschool, her at her school and was only supposed to go into IKEA for 2 things-mixing bowls and drinking glasses. WELLLLLLL, what's a girl to do when she gets to IKEA at 0920 and it doesn't open till 10? Oh yeah, go into Home Goods and DSW, of course.... 2 pairs of shoes, 2 handbags, new bathroom rugs, Halloween decor etc, etc, etc.. later, I get to IKEA and fill a shopping cart. I chased IKEA with Costco----Oh now I see why they put all those stores next to each other now <_< And I was supposed to be home cleaning house.

As a punishment, Sven took me on a five mile run today. It was soooo humid and uncomfortable this afternoon that I puked after 2 miles, and by the time I got home, I randomly have 5 new gigantoid blisters all over my tootsies and I can't wear shoes :huh: Guess I can't get my pedicure tomorrow--Damn that Sven, I can't even enjoy my new shoes!

Have to go watch the dancing again!! Goodnight all!

I stumbled over to this thread and saw poutine! It has made it's way to the midwest! I saw it at a local fair a few weeks ago and it is a hit here... :lol:

I'm a newbie to the boards... so hello to all!

Monica arrives and brings tales of poutine! Woooo!

elye Community Regular

HEYY! Morning comes, and another Nooobie has alighted! Welcome, Monica. Dear gawd, I cannot believe it - - this gastronomical chaos that is poutine has crossed the border and ensconced itself into the Midwest.

For any who actually want to know the history of this bizarre thing, an older clip that captures the beginnings of the Quebequois invasion:

Crap, it's even made it into the world of gangsta' rap........

summerteeth Enthusiast

My city puts on a festival every labor day weekend and this is the first year I noticed poutine... it was more popular than chicken on a stick. The friends I was with that night were absolutely horrified/intrigued by the phenom that is poutine.

Man, do I love the Midwest and our cuisine.

jerseyangel Proficient

Mornin all :D

Rachelle--I love your new pic! B) Very pretty. And, I have to say yer a goil after me own 'art, what wif the shopping and all. Let's just say I woulda killed the time in much the same way :lol:

Speaking of pics, Jess-- :lol: I could eat that :ph34r:

Welcome summerteeth :)

Gads, that poutine sounds like a right, royal MESS!--fit for our gastronomical queen. What say you, BunBun???

To me it is an abomination, being in my fries-eating days a purist--not a drop of ketchup made it near my fries :P I tell ya. And despite my British ancestry nary a drop of malt vinegar either. The only time I had "tampered with" fries was at the ballpark, everyone had been drooling over the garlic fries, so we got some at the baseball game one night. Blech!!! Most awful thing I've ever had and I luv garlic :wub:

Pootine. Dies that come with a side of Lipitor and a dollop of Crestor?

Velcoomin, Monacle. I am kinda new, too, and sometimes masquaraid as a Rushin Babushka.

As for all you Sven freaks, HAVE YOU LOOKED AT YOUR FEET LATELY? :ph34r: Brakes....Blisters....I'm stayin away from Sven.

Seems veddy Syrious in silliville lately. Silly-up, peeps, I need a loud guffaw :D

:lol: RACH-ELLE!!!!!!!!!

Silly girl!!!!!

Any dealing with Ikea always begins with 'I was only supposed to.......' and ALWAYS ends in tears for the bank balance. My hubby refuses to go there anymore....we've lost WHOLE days to that shop!!!................ and YES!, why IS Costco's next door to it????

I tend to see it as a good work out if you puke!! :lol: ............. but BAH!..no pedicure???...that's TOO much!!!!!!! :angry:

Well this is just FANTASTIC Em!!!.... giving me a fascinating insight into your culture :lol:

...and BTW, ...some of the weirdest French accents I have ever heard! :huh:

I am strangely drawn to the Poutine though :unsure: , if only to say 'I tried it and didn't die!' :lol:

And despite my British ancestry nary a drop of malt vinegar either.

Surely you jest Neroli????? :unsure:

...no vinegar on yer chips is a crime most heinous IMO ;)

Got now't done today ..... am trapped ... reading the' Twilight' books by Stephanie Meyer, I am on book #2

I must eat this POUTINE- with gluten-free gravy. Anything with potatoes, gravy and cheese (and lots of SALT) sounds good to me! Must one be pregnant to eat it 4 times a week? Actually if I ate it 4 times a week I would LOOK pregnant!!!!!!!!!!!

BRING IT ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rachelle--I love your new pic! B) Very pretty.

Raye-chull! It is a beeootiful pic, and I thought it was your daughter.... . ..you are GORJUSS. Phunny and beautiful - - what a one-two punch! ;):D

As for all you Sven freaks, HAVE YOU LOOKED AT YOUR FEET LATELY? :ph34r:

Crap, I can look at my feet, as they appear as normal as always - - far from beautiful, but within the realm of normalcy......but I've been FEELING them :angry::( .....well, the right one, anyway. Tried a slow jog this am wif the dogs, but was sent back, beaten after about five minutes - - started to hurt.

Who else here has a second toe longer than their first? Um, this, to me, is visually disturbing, quite an ugly glitch. I've very narrow heels, as well, and I'm rather wide across the toe base. Yes, ugly feet, methinks. I think we should all put up avatars of our feet, and vote on who has the nicest. :lol:

Any dealing with Ikea always begins with 'I was only supposed to.......' and ALWAYS ends in tears for the bank balance. My hubby refuses to go there anymore....we've lost WHOLE days to that shop!!!................

:lol: I canna stand it.....it is very shrewdly set up so that you head in, turn many corners through a labyrinth of couches, then halogen lamps, BIKKART mirrors, SLOGENN bunk beds, through potted plants and closet organizers, can't take a shortcut, canna turn around, and all I need is a bloody wooden spoon!

:angry::rolleyes:

Mais Oui, c'est le Francais Quebequois. . ......... .. :lol:

I WENT SHOPPIN,TOO! Got:

      @ABP2025, Here's some studies and articles that will help you learn more about thiamin and all... I will write more later. It's possible that your antibiotic for giardiasis has caused thiamine deficiency.   https://hormonesmatter.com/metronidazole-toxicity-thiamine-deficiency-wernickes-encephalopathy/ And... https://hormonesmatter.com/thiamine-deficiency-testing-understanding-labs/ And... Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/ and... Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/

      Interesting you mention MCAS. I have come across mcas before but I wasn’t entirely sure if that’s what it was. When I eat certain food like dairy or soy my face gets so hot and I feel flush and my heart rate shoot’s up. And sometimes my bottom lip swells or I get hives somewhere. This started happening after I had a really bad case of Covid.  Before that I was able to eat all those things (minus gluten) I was diagnosed with celiac way before I had Covid.  Hmm, not sure really. I may look for a different allergist my current one told me to take Zyrtec and gave me an epi pen.

      This is all really useful information, thank you so much to you both.    I have a history of B12 and vit D deficiency which has always just been treated and then ignored until it’s now again.

      Welcome to the forum, @Gill.brittany8! There are two main genes that have been identified as creating potential for developing celiac disease, HLDQ2 and HLDQ8. Your daughter has one of them. So, she possesses genetic the potential to develop celiac disease. About 40% of the general population carries one or both of these genes but only about 1% of the general population develops celiac disease. It takes both the genetic potential and some kind of triggering stress factor (e.g., a viral infection or another prolonged health problem or an environmental factor) to "turn on" the gene or genes. Unfortunately, your daughter's doctor ordered a very minimal celiac antibody panel, the tTG-IGA and total IGA. Total IGA is not even a test per celiac disease per se but is a check for IGA deficiency. If the person being checked for celiac disease is IGA deficient, then the scores for individual IGA tests (such as the tTG-IGA) will be abnormally low and false negatives can often be the result. However, your daughter's total IGA score shows she is not IGA deficient. You should consider asking our physician for a more complete celiac panel including DGP-IGA, TTG_IGG and DGP-IGG. If she had been avoiding gluten that can also create false negative test results as valid antibody testing requires having been consuming generous amounts of gluten for weeks leading up to the blood draw. Do you know if the GI doc who did the upper GI took biopsies of the duodenum and the duodenum bulb to check for the damage to the small bowel lining caused by celiac disease? Having said all that, her standard blood work shows evidence of possible celiac disease because of an elevated liver enzyme (Alkaline Phosphatase) and low values for hemoglobin.

      Hi everyone  After years of stomach issues being ignored by doctors, my 9 y/o daughter finally had an upper endoscopy which showed a ton of stomach inflammation. The GI doctor ordered some bloodwork and I’m attaching the results here. Part will be from the CBC and the other is celiac specific. I’m not sure what’s relevant so I’m just including extra information just in case.   The results are confusing because they say “No serological evidence of celiac disease. tTG IgA may normalize in individuals with celiac disease who maintain a gluten-free diet. Consider HLA DQ2 and DQ8 testing to rule out celiac disease.” But just a few lines down, it says DQ2 positive. Can someone help make sense of this? Thanks so much.  result images here: https://ibb.co/WFkF0fm https://ibb.co/kHvX7pC https://ibb.co/crhYp2h https://ibb.co/fGYFygQ
