Yes, its the Strawberry that drops because that area in H-burg is called Strawberry Square :)

Um.......I thought you were talking about a cocktail called Strawberry Drops. :lol: are you saying that a giant strawberry comes down, like Dick Clark's descending crystal orb? :blink:

Just think of the mess . . . unless . . . perhaps . . . it falls on some shortcake, or ice cream, or whip cream . . . OK, maybe we should look into this.

Wasn't there a doll affiliated with the Care Bears named Strawberry Shortcake? Sounds like a job for the Care Bears, if you ask me..... :lol:

:P both........

OMG - I am trying a new trick with my old Stinker. See, all she does now, every single day of her life, is stay in bed the ENTIRE day, comes out only once or twice to eat and pee..... my poor baby. :( Then........she wants to go outside at night.......and then.......she barks every 90 seconds to five minutes.....so JUST when you're drifting off to sleep - a big bark.

So mommy has decided we're not going to play this reindeer game any more......Stinker has been SHUT OUT of her bedroom......I'm making her stay out here with us all day and keeping her awake. :lol: She keeps asking to go into her bed but I am NOT letting her.

Ah, the joys of mothering a psychotic, panic-stricken dingo. :blink::lol:

I'll take this one, St. Peter, as I have one of these in my household. He has recently switched to soap, as he now has very little left on top and he's only washin' skin, now. Oh, to be young again....

He does sport a beard, however...I wonder if he uses shampoo on it? Hmm. Peter, does he?

Sarah! Start posting! We've missed you!

Indeed, it took quite some time to catch up! Thank you all for noticing I was gone!!! :wub: Of course there's been body fluids involved- there always is at my house. :rolleyes: Christmas glutenings for everyone- <_< - but never so bad as to ruin Christmas. I have to say, catching up on all your posts made me want it to be Christmas all over again! *sigh*

Let's see if I can remember everything I wanted to comment on (not a chance.)

Bhutto assassination- too sad and discouraging. :(

Hitting a deer- scary!

Wooster-sauce- good stuff!

Stuffed shells- YUM, any left over?

Inebriated sillies all around- :lol:

Turkey gravy- I found 365 gluten-free turkey gravy at Whole Foods!!! I paid ridiculous amounts of $$ for 4 jars, and it did NOT turn into hot gravy jello upon re-heating.

umm....

Susie falling through a hedge forwards- Heinous! What was that dog chasing... reindeer?

Well.... one more bite of chocolate, and I just might barf. Time for Sarah to go on a serious after-holidays-DIET!!! It's been raining for days, but is supposed to clear up tomorrow. I think I'll work on the gardens. Also must get one of my tractor-owning neighbors to come over and till up the big garden.

It's almost time to get ready for early spring planting! Onions, carrots, salad greens can all go in in 2 months. And it takes me FOREVER to get everything ready by myself, as my hubby has no interest in gardening until it's time to eat. :lol:

Well, I'm off. Happy New Year's Eve Eve! lol

SARAH! :rolleyes: and there she is, she's found her way back to Sillyville!!!!!!!

OMG the gravy success! what a coup! So....must look into this 365 gravy.......

and you are NOT kidding on teh diet!!!!!! :o I found these extreeeeeeeeeeeemely evil french salt caramels at Trader JOe's. Went through three things of them in less than two weeks. ANd then there was all the other candy, and the homemade marshmallows. :ph34r: so, I think I am only going to have sugar now in my coffee and oatmeal, and maybe maple syrup on the pancakes once or twice a week. Other than that - NO SUGAR ALLOWED. I am a candy addict.....and it makes me quite tired when I consume lots o' sugar. BAH!!!!!!!!!

Between the candy, the lunar (read: menstrual :ph34r: ) cycle night sweats, and a senile, barking dingo, I am exhausted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :mellow:

OMG Emily - yes, what does your husbnad use to wash his beard? Um, BTW, have you checked to see if there are any wee hoglets nestled therein? :blink::lol:

okay....must head out now....... procuring New Year's eve snacks and movies.......

mygawd, I have REALLY got to get a life........ :huh:

Well....There WERE. I've been having trouble figuring how to say this to everyone...but, yes, there were messy hedgehogs in DH beard. But, um...hedgehog babies seem to be something of a delicacy in the diet of...yetis. So, he's eaten quite well. Thank gawd standard poodles are not to his liking, or cats. :o

Guess we've got him for New Years Eve, then he could go up north with MIL, unless anyone would like him for a stay. Susie, he hasn't been with you, yet. Or Tom--but I think I remember an allergy, there...

Sarah!! He could help with the pre-gardening chores!

Susie- We did our honeymoon in the Finger Lakes, it was so nice up there. We didn't get to any wineries though since we were short on time.

My wine drinking at dinner was more than usual. I was ok sitting, but then I had to go upstairs to go to the bathroom. I was wearing this nice plaid skirt and sweater and my Mary Janes with the clunky heels...I tripped over their bathroom scale and almost landed face first into the toliet!

That wine was very much like candy for me....Thankfully MIL was drinking just as much...

OMG- I was trying to catch up but I saw this and had to stop because I couldn't stop laughing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can see it now in slow motion......imagine if you HAD landed face first in the toilet? And I like your MIL very much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kurt and I ran away for a few days and you know what? He stole my Hasslehoff book and didn't give it back! I think he has a secret crush :P OMG-the writing in it, even to my Lymied brain , is PAINFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sarah, so sorry about the glutenings :( HEINOUS! Hope you guys get to feeling better soon!

I'm jealous of your gardening, if I lived closer I would come and help you so I could learn how to do it :lol:

Speaking of candy, I have a weakness for toffee around the holidays, there's this little locally owned candy shop that makes the best to die for buttery little squares of toffee goodness dipped in fine chocolate and nuts.....I ate many between Thanksgiving and Christmas :ph34r:

And OMG, did you notice Crate and Barrell, or was it Williams Sonoma...can't rember, had MARSHMALLOWS wrapped in CARAMEL??? Genius!! I stayed far away from these however.

I also LOVE Sound of music, such a great movie

Well, me and old musicals...can't live without 'em. But I have to admit, SOM is my least favorite. I've tried and tried over the years...sigh. Really good, historically gripping story, but the music...bah. Love Julie's yodelling, however, and the marionnette scene is terrific... :D

OK, if we're voting . . . I like SOM . . . favorite song is Edelweiss.

But NOW we're talking candy . . . absolutely all time favorite is toffee. If it is around, I can not stay away from it.

Seems a little early for gardening. Does that mean that you've already got you Christmas stuff down, Sarah? And has anybody heard if the special adhesive garland (ie, duct tape) was all that Alex needed to finish off her tree?

      Sprouts packaged roasted, salted nuts - says "made in a facility that processes wheat" - has anyone had a problem?

      By Lkg5 · Posted

      I never buy any nuts from a facility that processes wheat.  It’s not worth the risk.  Surprisingly, Trader Joe’s nuts do not come a factory that processes wheat, and I do not react to them.  I am sensitive to gluten.

      Test

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If all testing is now completed you may want to let your doctor know that you are starting a gluten-free diet. If you symptoms go away on the diet it is further confirmation that you may have celiac disease, and/or non-celiac gluten sensitivity.  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      I’m so confused…

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      As long as the B Comlex is gluten-free, it should be helpful to you, especially since you're recently diagnosed and your villi are in the recovery process. You may need to look at further supplements as well, and it's a good idea for your doctor to check levels for many nutrients to see what deficiencies you might have. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

      Weak stomach digestion after undiagnosed celiacs

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      How long ago were you diagnosed? There are many symptoms and issues for those who are newly diagnosed, and recovery can take a while. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people. According to this study: This article explores other causes of flattened villi:

      I’m so confused…

      By Kwinkle · Posted

      As I mentioned before I’m pretty new to this. I’m about a month into being completely gluten-free. But I’m still having issues with fatigue, loss of appetite, and gas pain. I’ve started taking the B complex, and was hopeful, but that would help me get past especially the fatigue and the loss of appetite. But now I just read a more recent post where somebody is saying that the B complex is not necessarily good for us?  I was very comfortable with the B complex because our bodies shed excess B vitamins. But now I just looked it up and B vitamins can cause gas and bloating.  As I mentioned, that’s one of my biggest symptoms, and I also think it’s directly connected to my loss of appetite, which, of course is connected to my fatigue.  I’m so confused I don’t really know what to do now?
