Spoiler!

I can't believe that Sanjaya is still there, I'm also a little surprised Haley is still on. I'm watching Sundance get kicked off right now. I predict Haley , Sanjaya, and another guy will be the next three to go. But we can all see how well I have predicted in the past :lol: . I think Sundance is doing a better job on his song tonight than last night.

I'm surprised Haley stayed over Sabrina....and I don't really get Phil's popularity. Something about him creeps me out a bit. Maybe I'm missing something...

Mango, he kind of looks like a cancer patient or something that came back from the dead... Maybe that's it? He kind of creeps me out too, but I also see his star appeal. He has a good sense of humor and a decent voice as well. Plus, he's in the marines and that always helps voting on American Idol.

I really liked Phil's songs up until this past week he can't pull off Leann Rhimes though. He does have a strange look. I have to admitt, Haley is very pretty.

I think Sundance & Sabrina were the wrong choices to go home.

I really liked Haley from her original audition, so I wasn't upset that she made it - we knew there would be one girl that we liked that didn't get through. It's just too bad for Sabrina - I wonder if she was just too much like Stephanie & Jordin that one of them was bound to go early - splitting the "modern R&B vibe voice".

Sanjaya is just not very good - I have no idea why he's still around, other than votefortheworst.com keeping him in things.

My faves are Gina, Melinda, Chris S, & Blake, so I was happy they all made it. My husband's faves were Sundance, Sabrina, & Stephanie, so he had a pretty rough night with only one of his faves getting through to the finals.

No idea who will win it all this year - I feel like there's just not a clear front runner.

What do you guys think after tonight?

Blake was awesome in my eyes! I still liked Gina, and I am happy to see Haley coming around. Simon even commenting her. Lakisha is another favorite of mine.

I thought Blake was AMAZING!!! I can't believe the judges didn't get it. I would love to hear that on the radio!!!

Melinda and Blake are my favorites now. I think they both bring a real unique-ness to the competition.

I used Schar cracker crumbs. They make the PERFECT crab cake. I think they make the crab cakes more moist than bread crumbs do. I can give you my recipe if you want. This is by far my favorite crab cake recipe. You could probably also use gluten free corn chex-type cereal and have them turn out wonderful.

I thought it was a pretty bad night again, i still love lakisha and melinda and jordan did awesome last night also. I think blake was awesome to. I still like gina. I really think a guy will win this year. I am still upset sundance is no longer on there. I think he would have done great last night.

I think sanjaya or brandon will go home, im sure it will be a guy.

I'll be really p'd if Sanjaya or Brandon don't go home after last night. Sanjaya hasn't sounded good since the auditions. Brandon has had like 3 bad weeks in a row. They're just not cutting it. I miss Sundance too. He was one of my favorites even though he had a couple of substandard performances. His voice was really amazing.

What was with Sanjaya's hair? It's not good looking..

I still like Gina!

To quote Randy "I just wasn't loving it". Last night was not as good as I would have hoped. Blake was good, Gina was fun even though she does have a habit of yelling power songs. Of corse Melinda was awesome. Even though there were other great singers, I found the performances boring. I can not believe how bad Chris S. killed the song. I hope next week is better. :)

I only watched (sort of) for the first hour...it was too painful to watch, lol. I DID like Melinda's performance though. I couldn't watch Sanjaya at all...that was excruitiating. :lol:

I walked away at 9:30, John continued to watch. He said he liked Chris Richardson but the judges hated it. I left after I saw Blake. I did get bored. How did they expect guys to do Diana Ross though?

I liked Blake, Melinda, & Gina. I liked Haley, too, we liked her since the auditions, so it was great to see her performing well again. But overall, I was fairly bored, things just need to get better from all the contestants.

I hope that Sanjaya or Brandon goes home--To quote Randy, Sanjaya was "almost unlistenable." I just wanted it to stop! I am not normally someone who would be so mean, but he really needs to be off the show. Yipes!

Unfortunately, Sanjaya is Votefortheworst.com's new pick since Sundance and Antonella are both gone. Ugh... He may be around for a while. Hopefully not.

We were discussing it in the office today and one of my coworkers also said they think Sanjaya will be around for awhile because of the vote for the worst. Sad!

The show was very amusing to me. I found the singers who forgot their words surprisingly entertaining. I believe Sanjaya is the best worst contestant they have ever had. The two pierced ears, the curly hair, the painfully shy singing... I laughed, cringed, covered my ears, listened again just to begin the process over. I was fully engaged. Vote for the worst is very funny. I don't vote, but it I were younger, I'd vote for the worst.

The best way to watch Idol these days is to record it and then fast forward through most of it LOL. All the guys (except maybe Blake) should go home.

I really liked Phil, Blake and Gina until this week - still like them, but now I have a new favorite - Jordin!

I thought she had the best performance BY FAR last night...

Great... I haven't gotten to watch it yet. We recorded it. Don's putting Tori down now and then we're going to watch. I'm assuming though by that response that Sanjaya didn't get voted off. Man... I hope it wasn't Blake or Melinda to go...

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I've not heard of any issues with Primal Kitchen, but it certainly would be worth not using the brand for a while to see if this helps. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful:

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you are super sensitive you may want to look for only Certified Gluten-Free Products, as @trents mentioned.

      Gluten free/ non dairy , low calorie pudding

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm not sure about low calorie, as puddings are typically a dessert, but we do have this category: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/gluten-free-dessert-recipes-pastries-cakes-cookies-etc/gluten-free-pudding-recipes/ This one might work if you cut back on the sugar:

      We are off next week on our 9th RCCL cruise since our diagnoses.  I send an email to special_needs@rccl.com before every cruise letting them know that I am both dairy and gluten free and my husband is gluten free.   Unfortunately, with the new menus they introduced in 2023, they removed the gluten-free designation from each item on the menu.  Instead of having a dedicated person take gluten-free orders, it now falls to your regular wait staff.  Some have been great and some not so good.  We had a great cruise in May and hit it off with our head waiter.  She went the extra mile and ordered gluten free desserts that were not on the menu.  My problem arises from other food allergies.  I am allergic to dairy, beef, and several types of fish.  On those days my husband is a happy camper with a steak or salmon, veggies and a baked potato.  I end up not getting enough protein, so I bring protein bars.  I also bring snacks for the room. As long as the food is commercially prepared and unopened, you can bring it. Often the only dessert choices that are gluten free contain dairy, so I am out of luck.  But, if you are just gluten free, they have plenty of choices.  See the head chef in the Windjammer buffet and he will give you a tour of the gluten-free choices.  They usually have 2 gluten free desserts out at lunch and they are labeled gluten free. We have found that it works best to have assigned dining rather than anytime.  That way the waiters learn from the get go what our needs are, and we don't have to explain ourselves every night.  We also get a private table for 2.  I frankly got sick and tired of tablemates telling me a little bit of gluten would not hurt me.

      Hi Trents-Thanks for reading and sharing insight.  We need all the help we can get and it's super appreciated.  She is currently dairy, soy and oat free and those have mostly been completely excluded from her diet since the diagnosis (we tried going back on dairy and oats at different times for a bit, didn't see a significant difference but have now cut out again just to be extra safe since her issues are so persistent.  We did cut eggs out for about 3 months and didn't notice significant difference there, either.  The only one we haven't specifically cut out completely for any portion of time is corn, however, we've kept it minimal in all of our diets for a long time.  She definitely goes 3-4 weeks without any corn products at times and still has issues, but I'm guessing that's not long enough to confirm that it isn't causing issues.   We could definitely try to go longer just to double check.  Thanks again!
