This is what happens when our Queen of Emotionocons becomes AWOL.

YES!!! Where is our Queen during this time of upheaval within her Empire?? Do you think Queen Erica could be behind this emoticutback? Perhaps her parents are. . .. ... :unsure: They may have caught her trying to sign "penis" or "vagina" when she was first crowned, and decided to take hostile action. . . . . ...... . .

:rolleyes::lol:

If I am reading this right, she is quoting her friend, jewelchic.

BTW........do you think all her wacky videos are clues?

Hmmm......... .. she lives in the jungle. ..... (Pardon me, the "Mighty Jungle"). . . ...with sleeping lions... ... . . .

LLAMA LADY IS JANE GOODALL!!!

.....no, wait, that would have to be "the baboon sleeps tonight".... . . . . . . .

:rolleyes::lol:

The Beav is very very angry. Not only has the emotiquota been cut in half BUT she went to the store to get supplies to make said cookies and came home with a can of squash. Would YOU eat squash chocolate chip cookies? :greengaggingguyemoticon:

What kind of squash? Pumpkins are related to squash so it actually might turn out pretty darn good Bevvy :)

Thanks all................

Bev--I could have sworn that I've read that a lot of canned pumpkin is actually squash. Don't ask me where, but I know I heard that before.

I think Julie's right, that they would probably come out good. The recipe only uses a cup, and there are lots of spices and other ingredients. I think what it adds most is moisture.

Lisa (curly)--right on! about B. Sherman!! :D

Gotta tell ya, I've interchanged squash, pumpkin and sweet potato in a lot of recipes, with great success. In fact, my sweet potato pie is essentially the same recipe as pumpkin pie, and everyone likes it much better. Surprisingly, better on my blood sugar level, too......

Need a little sweet potato emoticon. .. .....

I could use ten of 'em ....... . . . .. .. -_-^_^:mellow:

I like sweet potato pie better than pumpkin. I got into it when we lived in Georgia. :)

Good Morning, all!

I have never in my entire life eaten a Twinkie. Dunno if one can be purchased here. . .. I'm sure they are in the Canadian market. What, no twinkies across the Pond, Nik? Well, you've now got a recipe courtesy of Purple. . .ya can see what y'all have been missing. .. . .... <_<:lol:

I still feel an uneasy connection with the timing of our Erica's coronation (all of the emoticon use, and at the end, "number of emoticons leftover - - 3 :rolleyes:B):lol: ) and this sudden, sweeping reduction in our Official Emotiquota.. . ....

Do emoticons have a best before date?? Perhaps we were not using twenty per post, and many emoticons were past expiry and had to be destroyed. . .. .....are they recyclable?

Yes, this could be Skaought's way of keeping things green - - the pressure is certainly on all business owners. He needs to keep an enviornmentally friendly website, and frugal use of emoticons perhaps is the first step. . . . ..

:huh:

:lol:

Mygawd, what's next. ..... ...

Limiting our use of coloUr?? Size? fancy tricks ??

A few days ago I got a microwave from freecycle. My microwave is from the 80's, has no turntable, is 500 watts (no brownie-in-a-cup for me) and you set the time and temp by turning dials.

So I go pick up the microwave, and it's evening and it's dark so I leave it in my truck thinking I'll deal with the switch on the weekend. Last night I get home and Roomie has taken away the old and brought in the new. Not only does it have buttons and things, and a turntable, it's a convection oven!! I'm so excited!!

:ph34r:umm, what do you do with a convection oven?? :ph34r:

I think you are quite right. I suspect somebody lurking has complained......."They are just having too much fun over there <_< ........cut their emoticons in half!"

......or perhaps there were budget cutbacks and the emoticon police were laid off. :P.....no wait.....reducing emoticons will only put them into overtime.......how many times will we get busted, now?

Seriously, though.........what pupose does it serve to cut back on emoticons? Does it benefit the forum in some way?

Oh PeOter!!!!!

Mygawd!! You guys! You have absolutely NEVER made, nor tasted, such delicious baked or roasted stuff until you use the convection setting. . . .I could not believe how incredible my roasted chicken/beef tasted when I first tried convection cooking. And muffins! OMG....Cakes! Everything is SOOOOO moist. . . . I do all of our Thanksgiving/Christmas turkeys in convection -- unbelievable the difference!

Dunno why there is such a difference. . . .the convection setting uses a fan, and perhaps the heat is distributed more evenly. Dunno, and don't care. I just was SO amazed when I started tasting the dinners I was preparing this way.

It's easy to change the setting to convection, at least on my stove - - I just turn a dial to "convection", and there you go.

Things also cook quicker, so you must be aware of that, and I always have the temperature 25 degrees lower than in regular roasting or baking.

You need to try it....you'll be amazed! :)

Hey! I've only used ONE emoticon so far, and ALL that text! Good fer me, doing what I can for the Forum Enviornment. . . . :rolleyes:

What awful things have we done as kids (or adults :ph34r: ) on Hallowe'en?

Hmmm.. . . .no egging or shaving creaming houses in my past. . .. ... ..

I was probably about thirteen, just at the age where you're getting a little old for trick or treating, and likely getting some dirty stares and/or doors in the face when you go knocking for candy. Me and three of my friends fanned out late on Hallowe'en night, after most of the kids had trick or treated, and started taking all the pumpkins from the porches around the neighboUrhood.

We quickly ran and placed them on Old Mr. Hudson's front porch (that horrid old codger that every neighbourhood has, who screams at you when you walk on his lawn, takes your frisbees and baseballs into his house and never gives them back. . . we all have had a Mr. Hudson in our childhood).

Well, by ten o'clock, there must have been 60 big pumpkins piled all across his porch. . . he couldn't open his door, I am sure. It looked SOOOOOO heelarryus. .. . .and the old phart deserved it. :lol::lol:

Hope he isn't still around, 99 years old and recently diagnosed with celiac, checking out forums. . . .. . . .... :ph34r::unsure:

      Neurologic symptoms - Muscle Twitching and Hand Tremors

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Sorry but I don't have specific recommendations for doctors, however, starting out with good multivitamins/minerals would make sense. You may want to get your doctor to screen you for where you different levels are now to help identify any that are low, but since you're newly diagnosed within the past year, supplementation is usually essential for most celiacs.

      Test uncertainty

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, I can imagine. My celiac journey started with a rejection of a blood donation by the Red Cross when I was 37 because of elevated liver enzymes. I wasn't a drinker and my family doctor checked me for hepatitis and I was not overweight. No answers. I thought no more about it until six years later when I landed a job in a healthcare setting where I got annual CMP screenings as part of my benefits. The liver enzymes were continually elevated and creeping up every year, though they were never super high. My primary care doc had no clue. I got really worried as your liver is pretty important. I finally made an appointment with a GI doc myself and the first thing he did was test me for celiac disease. I was positive. That was in about 1996. After going on a gluten-free diet for three months the liver enzymes were back in normal range. Another lab that had gotten out of whack that has not returned to normal is albumin/total protein which are always a little on the low side. I don't know what that's about, if it's related to the liver or something else like leaky gut syndrome. But my doctors don't seem to be worried about it. One thing to realize is that celiac disease can onset at any stage of life. There is a genetic component but there is also an epigenetic component. That is, the genetic component is not deterministic. It only provides the potential. There needs also to be some health or environmental stressor to activate the latent gene potential. About 40% of the population have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually do.

      Does this definitely suggest Coeliac Disease?

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hello @Heather Hill You are most welcome.  As a longstanding member and now mod of the forum, I am ashamed to say I find numbers and figures very confusing, so I rarely stray into the realms of explaining markers. (I've self-diagnosed myself with dyscalculia!)  So I will leave that to @Scott Adams or another person. However as a British person myself I quite understand that the process with the NHS can take rather a long time.  But just as you made a concerted effort to eat gluten before your blood test, I'd advise doing the same with eating gluten before a biopsy, in order to show if you are reacting to gluten.  It might be worth contacting the hospital or your GPs secretary to find out if they know what the current waiting time is. Here is a page from Coeliac UK about the current NHS recommendations. https://www.coeliac.org.uk/information-and-support/coeliac-disease/getting-diagnosed/blood-tests-and-biospy/#:~:text=If you remove or reduce,least six weeks before testing.

      Test uncertainty

      By MI-Hoosier · Posted

      Thanks again. My mom was diagnosed over 50 years ago with celiac so grew up watching her deal with the challenges of food. I have been tested a few times prior due to this but these results have me a bit stunned. I have a liver disease that has advanced rapidly with no symptoms and an allergy that could be a contributing factor that had no symptoms. I guess I’ll call it lucky my Dr ordered a rescreen of a liver ultrasound from 5 years ago that triggered this or I would likely have tripped into cirrhosis. It’s all pretty jarring.

      Does this definitely suggest Coeliac Disease?

      By Heather Hill · Posted

      Many thanks for your responses, much appreciated.  The tests did include tTg IgA and all the other markers mentioned.  I also had sufficient total IgA so if I'm reading the Mayo clinic thing correctly, I didn't really need the anti-deaminated gliadin marker? So, if I am reading the information correctly do I conclude that as all the other markers including tTg IgA and DGP IgG and tTg IgG and EMA IgA are all negative, then the positive result for the immune response to gliadin, on it's own, is more likely to suggest some other problem in the gut rather than Coeliac disease? Until I have a view from the medics (NHS UK) then I think I will concentrate on trying to lower chronic inflammation and mend leaky gut, using L glutamine and maybe collagen powder. Thank you for your help so far.  I will get back in touch once I have a response, which sadly can take quite a long time.   Kindest Heather Hill
