I peel the orange and limit the amount of zest 'cause I don't really like the shock of the intense orange flavor. Maybe dried zest would be a little easier, or just skip it. You could flavor after cooking with a splash of orange liqueur if it needed a bit more. Some people put some orange concentrate in, but I don't like it too juicy.

Not going to BE's, but he and I are planning on going to Open Original Shared Link on Friday, if the weather isn't too heinous.

thanks, Jess!

the Spit sounds like just our kind of place. Have fun!

HEY! Thanks for all of this, POeter! Two of these locales are walkable from my place. I am going to purchase the New Grist - - methinks Will might like it. He's never been into blondes.

Big storm here. Took more than an hour to get from the boat to my house last night (4 miles). Power was out for a while and it's still flickering. Can't imagine what the roads are like. I have to figure out if I'm going to try to get into work or not. Not that I need to work, but I don't have a fireplace and it's pretty chilly in my house.

Outside temp currently 21. Reminding you that I'm in Seattle, where a low of 30 in February is a remarkable event.

Jeepers, Jess, this sounds like a three-cat day under the blankets :unsure: as Kerrigne says. How come you have no heat in your house??? :huh:

Em, I am afeared you are right; hope is fading fast even on the west coast amongst the mining community where they are a hardy bunch of survivors. I saw video yesterday from CCTV of the blast coming out of the mine and I don't think it was survivable. Gas levels are still too high to risk going in and possibly setting off another explosion. It seems like there may be a smoldering fire burning down below - it has been a rather gaseous mine :unsure: It is all very harrowing and frustrating for those affected.

How awful! It was a coal mine, right? They have horrible dangerous gases and collapses. The Chilian mine was metal or jewels. Those usually don't have the gas that is found in the rock around coal.

Think I have bought all the food I need for Turkey day except we get the smoked turkey tomorrow. Fortunately, it's cold because I can't fit the food in the fridge. I have to clean & re- organize a little. It's about 40 degrees so things will be fine on the porch for a little bit.

I heard about the robot. Hope that turns out OK.

My power went off about 5 am. I left at 11 when the house reached 45 degrees. I'm at BE's house, but his parents don't have power either, so he's gone to get them. :o :o :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: I'm in his shop, so can't hang around. Just wanted to email my prof that I won't make it to class tomorrow and what should I do about my homework?

Stay warm y'all.

Do you mean finding out what your assignment is or handing your homework in? Can you email the homework? Sounds like you have a legitimate excuse to hand it in late. Glad you're at BE's. Guess this means you decided to spend Thanksgiving with him (or is fate forcing your hand?). biggrin.gif

Just picked up our son at school. He's out eating a gluten packed dinner at a chinese restaurant. I decided that it would be fun for him and dad to enjoy eating without my restrictions tonight. Tomorrow it's gluten-free mac and cheese (for them, not me). I had planned on making Jewish Penicillin but he's not sick anymore. Of course I also have three huge bags of laundry that need to be done. I have to admit it's so nice to have him home that I don't mind doing it.

Happy Turkey Day to all. My thoughts and prayers are still with the miners but it is looking grim. Not a very happy holiday for them or their families.

P.S. question for my brilliant psillies:

I'm making a potato casserole and a squash casserole Thanksgiving morning. I need to make them in advance because I won't have room in the oven to heat them (making 2 ducks) so I want them cooked in advance so I can microwave them. They have eggs in them but again they will be fully cooked. Can I keep them outside if it's supposed to be 46 degrees. I won't have any room in my refrigerator for them.

(((HUGS)))

      TTG IgA and IGA elevated mildy

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hi, @thejayland10, Do you still consume dairy?  Dairy can cause increased tTg IgA levels in some people with celiac disease who react to casein, the protein in dairy, just like to gluten.   You might try cutting out the processed gluten free foods.  Try a whole foods, no carbohydrate Paleo diet instead, like the AIP diet (the Autoimmune Protocol Diet by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, a Celiac herself). Processed gluten free foods can be full of excess carbohydrates which can alter your microbiome leading to Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO).  SIBO is found in some people who are not responding to a gluten free diet.  SIBO can elevate tTg IgA levels.  The AIP diet cuts out sources of carbohydrates like rice, potatoes (nightshades), quinoa, peas, lentils, legumes, which starves out the SIBO bacteria.  Better bacteria can then proliferate.   I followed the AIP diet to get rid of my SIBO.  It's a strict diet, but my digestive tract had time to rest and heal.  I started feeling better within a few days.  Feeling improvement so soon made sticking to the AIP diet much easier. References: Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth among patients with celiac disease unresponsive to a gluten free diet https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7759221/   Luminal antigliadin antibodies in small intestinal bacterial overgrowth https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9260801/#:~:text=Luminal total IgA concentrations (p,response to local bacterial antigens.   Potato glycoalkaloids adversely affect intestinal permeability and aggravate inflammatory bowel disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12479649/

      New to gluten free living, in5ro and small question

      By trents · Posted

      First, welcome to the forum, @boy-wonder! Second, a little clarification in terminology is in order. Granted, inconsistency is rampant when it comes to the terminology associated with gluten disorders, but it has more or less become settled in this fashion: "Gluten intolerance" is a general term that car refer to either celiac disease or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). "Gluten Sensitivity" is the shortened version of NCGS. Third, Celiac disease is not an allergy to gluten. It is an autoimmune disorder characterized by gluten ingestion causing the immunes system to attack the lining of the small bowel, causing damage to it over time due to the constant inflammation that wears down the "villi" (mucosal finger-like projections that make up the lining). Over a significant period of time as gluten continues to be consumed, this generally results in impaired nutrient absorption. There are specific blood antibody tests available to check for celiac disease but the testing will not be valid while on a reduced gluten diet or a gluten free diet. Those already having having begun a gluten free diet must go back to consuming generous amounts of gluten for a period of weeks if they wish to pursue testing for celiac disease. Fourth, NCGS shares many of the same symptoms of celiac disease but does not damage the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. There is no test for it. A diagnosis for NCGS depends on first ruling out celiac disease. It is 10x more common than celiac disease. Some experts feel it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Eliminating gluten from your life is the antidote for both. Fifth, you state that you are convince you don't have celiac disease by are just "gluten intolerant" (aka, gluten sensitive). How do you know that? It seems to me you are making a dangerous assumption here. I suggest you consider getting formally tested for celiac disease.

      Gluten free parakeet food

      By AllyJR · Posted

      Has anyone found a gluten free parakeet seed mix? I can't find a single one! My doctor wants me to make sure all pet food in the house is gluten free but I'm not sure if that's even possible with parakeets. We love our birds so much! I'm wondering if anyone has ever made their own bird seed mix if gluten free ones are not available.

      Hi, new member. About me, I had been suffering with weight gain, bloating and irregular and extreme bowel habits for a year or so. For example, I went on holiday in 2023, then again I  2024 at the same time of year and every shirt I wore in 2023 didn't fit anymore, couldn't even do the buttons up. Being in my mid 50s I put it down to age and middle aged spread. I'd been lucky all my life having good metabolism and being able to eat anything and as much as I like without putting on any weight, it drove my other half mad. Over a conversation with a friend health and age Related stuff came up and he mentioned someone he knew who had recently found out they were gluten intolerant,  I looked it up and had every one of 8 or so symptoms listed. Bloating,  weight gain,  headaches, brain fog,  constipation, etc etc. I took the decision to give going gluten free a try. Within 1 week I had lost 4 lb, now 7 weeks in I've lost 13 lb. I feel much better in general,  the bloating has severely subsided, it used to keep me awake at night as I felt so uncomfortable.  So pretty much a success story, as everyone here knows,  going gluten free isn't always easy, and eating out can be awkward,  but I consider myself lucky that I appear to have an intolerance rather than an allergy or being celiac.  I can deal with most of the gluten free options at the supermarket but, the big one for me is bread, I love bread, and the gluten free options I've tried are pretty poor. I was at a posh black tie event last night and chose all the food options I thought would be gluten free,  however,  there was bread on the table and I couldn't resist it, I had I small piece of bread,  god it was good, I wanted more but I resisted. Today I feel a bit dodgy, my stomach is churning, and I generally feel a bit urgh.  So here's the question, is that really down to 1 small piece of bread or is it coincidence?  I'd be interested in hearing how other people have reacted to a similar situation,  as I was considering having a day off every now and then and enjoying some lovely fresh bread.
