She does read over my shoulder at times. She's got to know what's going on with everyone. I haven't let her look at this thread.......and I certainly hope she doesn't. :ph34r:

Ok then I guess I CAN feel like it's safe to recite tales of childhood thievery.

Buncha goody-goodies bah! One time this, one time that, Razzles, Junior Mints, skates, Lisa Burton :lol: etc.

(Glossing over Manda's obvious delinquency :lol: Was the "borrowed" dirty book ever returned? OMG you still have it!! :D )

On our block we actually had contests :ph34r:

Pete won w/ 7 brownies at once. I still don't know how he did it. (I was so sure 6 would win!)

Not that we were the local Bad boys - that'd be the Brinks, Gellars & Krugers.

Some time later I got caught by the owner of the convenience store, Open Pantry. Had to ride in the back of the cop car & everything at like 8 yrs old (9??). :ph34r: Cried like a BABY!!!!!! :lol:

Happened to my little brother, too. They called my dad, told him what they were going to do and took him to the police station (with dad's consent). They fingerprinted him. Talk about Scared Sheetless Straight.

OMG - I am the straight arrow of my family. I don't know what I'm going to do when my kids get to the point that they start acting up. I told my husband he would have to handle it because I will totally not be able to relate. Now . . . you want to here about a "bad" boy? When my husband was . . . wait, I don't know what the statute of limitations is . . . best not put it in writing.

And Tom, I'm late . . . but wanted to add . . . Too Cool (get it? Cool?) about your brother . . . and also, very sorry to hear the circumstances.

So I am here at work with what looks to be a promising day...We are once again having hospital wide connectivity problems....computers are inching along!!!!!!

When I was 15, a girl I hung out with at the time went into Turkey Hill and stole a pack of cigarettes and then we went out and smoked with a few other friends in the woods, while drinking a fruit punch drink spiked with a bit of my parents Vodka of Finland which I swiped...while we looked at a dirty book another girl "borrowed" from her mom.

:o OMG! It's always the quiet ones... :lol:

so what should I do? send the ugly photo?

:lol:

An ugly picture of Susie???? NOT possible!!! :D

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

First of all, it's not ugly at all! I think you look very nice in it and I'd go ahead and send it to your friends.

I'd love it if I took as good a picture as you do B)

PATTI!!!!! I'm making those rolled sugar cookies today (finally). The dough is currently in the fridge but dang, that's good dough! I'm a dough connoisseur . . . I have a tendency to eat more dough than cookies . . . OK, well, I eat a lot of cookies, too. I did sub out 1/2 cup of the shortening for 1/2 cup butter (couldn't help myself) and added a little more vanilla (I do that to EVERYthing). We'll see if I've messed up the consistency/spread when I bake but these are just going to be round cookies anyway. So . . . cookie dough, cookies, butter . . . now you guys know why I need to loose 25 pounds.

These cookies are for the Christmas Party (Oh, excuse me, the Winter Party) at school. The activity is decorating the cookie you are about to eat!!!! GRRRRRRR!!! I wish they would consult me on things like this. I could come up with a different activity and a different snack!!!!

Susie!! Yes!!! I like the photo!!! Send it!!!! You of all people have got to know how hard it is to get all three of you to smile at the same time!!

Carla, question from a couple of days ago that I didn't answer . . . we were probably sitting in chairs in her driveway watching the kids play or shopping . . . those are pretty much the only activities we would do when I was there. She lived in Quail Run (I think that's what it was called) on Arbor Hill Road/Drive/Court(?).

Hey Janet :D

Let me know how they come out--I think the 1/2 butter should be fine--I'd do that too, 'cept I'm intolerant. Vanilla, I never measure :lol: --I just give things a generoug glug.

I need to make a batch myself--I normally make two batches and put crushed anise seed in one for my husband--they're his favorite :)

Whoa that TOtally reminds me of my fictitious Uncle we'd wake to find lying next to the tree among urine-soaked presents!!!! :ph34r: <ewwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!>

:lol:

Don't joke Tom - my kids have actually got one of those :ph34r:

Tom, that is a huge honoUr! How proud you, Pam and your family must be. Totally COOL!

Ditto on what Lisa said - must make you proud Tom ;)

Well the clerk asked T is it tasted as good as she thought it would. She said it didn't. She owes .55 to the clerk who paid for it so I wouldn't have to use my debit card. Her birthday is Saturday so she'll have the money then. Course I told her I should make her pay for the extra gas up there and back which would be just over $4.

Hi Andrea!!! :D

Looks like a lesson was learnt :rolleyes: (kids eh)

Oh and Emily you sooo did go to Kent!!! (but unlike Janet I cannot be arsed to go back and find it :lol: )

What a coup!!!!

My son finished school for xmas today - and came home with an Ipod shuffle!!!!!

A local company had donated 1 for every child at his 'Special' School (kids with learning difficulties)

Down loaded some tunes for him and he's 'happy as Larry' :D (I don't know who Larry is - it's just a saying :huh::lol: )

Susie!!! The pic is superb, and if you look better in person YOU ARE DIVINE!!!!! :lol::lol:

(and Patti does look adorable and fluffy doesn't she????)

JANET!!!! I MUST warn you about Patti's recipes!!!

THEY are EEEEEEVIL on the hips (but delicious :P )

Wow!!! Now that is awesome!

BTW, I meant to say before-- Susie you are too, too lucky to have been spared the out-the-nose pukies. It really does make a special time even specialer.

Wow, "specialer" doesn't come up with a red underline, as being misspelled! :blink: I used it but I didn't think it was a real word. :huh:

OH, ALL RIGHT!! *muttering* Am I the only one who knows how to use the search engine on this site!! <Footsteps echoing going down a dark dark hallway>

Ah yes, the garden of England as the county of Kent is known

Er, been on The London Underground have we Emily??? :lol:

STAND CLEAR OF THE DOORS PLEASE

Glad you're enjoying it - hope you love Paris :)

Here's Nikki's quote . . . telling Emily that she's in Kent . . .

It actually wasn't that hard to find. Apparently, we don't talk about Kent as often as we talk about zombies.

So . .... .. . .. . Mornin' Sillies!!! (Even if it's already afternoon back east)

Not much time for me to play today until I'm at the airport.

Here's my day so far:

Wake.

Panic about not having started packing.

Remember that the suitcase that's big enough for all the puffy warmer clothes is in storage.

Relax & Realize I'll be fine once I have the suitcase - the packing will take 10min.

Re-panic.

Re-relax.

Write this.

Annnnnnnnnnnnnd off to storage I go!!!!

TTYL!

How is this possible???? - I thought everyone had experienced the burning acid (eyes a watering) out the nose thingy (coeliac or otherwise) :o ...evil

Wow, "specialer" doesn't come up with a red underline, as being misspelled! :blink: I used it but I didn't think it was a real word. :huh:

A small boy wrote to Santa Claus:

"Dear Santa, Please send me a baby brother."

Santa wrote back, "Send me your mother!"

My first guess is that it's a browser add-on function (grrrr WHAT are those CALLED???) rather than anything directly forum-related.

<tom hates spellcheck, except to play w/, amused at what words it may think I meant>

Phew!! Got suitcase from storage and nailed down ride to the airport from, of all things, a trombone player!!

Panic averted. :)

Ah, ok. I use Firefox. Spellcheck generally gets on my nerves. Here's a perfect example- it accepts "specialer," but not "spellcheck."

Oh no....no REAL world for me! It's just that between eating, sleeping, shopping, I have no time! Let's see

Cooking and then eating= 4 hours (cuz it takes me forever to do ANYTHING!)

Sleep= 10 hours

Shopping= 4 hours because I can't find anything!

Wait- 6 hours are lost! OMG- where are they!!!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes::P

      From the article you linked: "Currently, there are no recommended methods to test for non-celiac gluten sensitivity." "No recommended methods" is the key phrase here. Just on the anecdotal evidence of reading many posts on this forum, I think we sometimes see some elevated igg test scores with NCGS. They seem to be mildly elevated in these cases, not high high.

      Thank you for your reply. I’m beginning to think of iodine as another culprit in this, as much as I fear it. I will say my rash is extreme and diffuse - it’s everywhere! I first had it on both sides of my neck in the summer of 2023. My PCP and dermatologist at the time, thought it was a reaction to jewelry I was wearing, even though I had been wearing the same necklaces for literally years with no reaction. The dermatologist at the time repeated over and over again that “allergies are acquired.” Which I knew. But I was not reacting to any other jewelry I was wearing. So it didn’t make any sense to me that it would only be from my necklaces. Anyway, it abated on it’s own. Only to come back with a vengeance months later - and I had not worn any necklaces at all. And the rash involved more area. I was put on Prednisone (oral steroid) taper and it worked well, and the itch and eventually the rash went away. Another trip to a different dermatologist at that time, prior to starting the Prednisone, told me to change all of my hygiene products like soap and shampoo, and to slather on Vaseline. None of which worked, hence the Prednisone. Needless to say, the itch and subsequent rash returned - and now spread everywhere, not just the hollows on both sides of my neck. It’s there, on my upper chest and left breast, both upper arms front and back, and elbows, my entire back, down both of my hips and buttocks and the front of my right thigh. Now the back of that right thigh is starting to itch as well. Also my lower right forearm and middle knuckle on my left hand since going gluten free. I’m just itching everywhere all the time. It keeps me awake, or wakes me up when I do fall asleep. I’m trying my best not to scratch, but it’s nearly impossible! I’ve been using a dry washcloth to rub instead of scratching. And I have used cool wet washcloths which help, but only lasts for a few minutes before starting up again. I’m pretty much at my wit’s end. Just waiting for something to indicate what’s really going on so I can do SOMETHING to stop it!

      Reply to Russ H, Thank you for your input. As a nurse for 46 years I was aware of much of this. However, as a new member to dermatitis herpetiformis, I have been reading and researching everything I can about it in order to educate and help myself. I was hoping that the oral Dapsone would help to alleviate the itching. I knew the rash would take longer to abate. Instead of relief from the Dapsone, I had adverse reactions so had to stop it. After 2 months on it, if hadn’t helped with the itching at all, and I understand it usually helps in the first few days if it’s going to. My itch and rash actually got worse on the Dapsone and with going gluten free - which lead me to question whether I was getting glutined from other products I am using. It’s like a huge puzzle trying to put all these pieces together to somehow make it fit and make sense. Right now, myself and my doctor are perplexed.
