  1. I was "uncooperative"(unwilling to take all the drugs they gave me) and "anorexic".. me? a former fatty butt who had lost 90 lbs, w/o trying. I can still hear the shrill cry of the gastro's NP who told me "they are giving you all these meds to help you, but you won't do it! why not...??..These are GOOD DRUGS!!" oh hush up, you nutjob ...
  2. cowering lettuce ...<snort> I am probably one of the few who does NOT allow her red gravy to simmer all day long. An old Italian woman in the North End of Boston told me to stop doing that when I was a young married thing and I was working part time in a bar near the Boston Garden while teaching at Northeastern and going to grad school. I...
  3. yes! and Pacific or Kitchen Basics are good too. If you have access to a BJs or Costco, they come in multi-packs.
  4. Lavender cupcakes and frosting sound fab, Addy!! yum! Welcome Noachka! Your dinner does sound great. Well, SKI I pushed the limit on the high histamine foods that give me grief the past few days --and boy, was it fun !!!(alcohol, chocolate, tomatoes, aged cheese) and that lasagna I made last night was fantastic (if I do say so myself) but...
  5. uh huh....and she who owns all the hershey bars rules the roost, baby Cut and pasted to the wedding thread--hope newbs and vets alike can see anything is possible. As the elderly G F lady I shared a cookie with said to me,,,,this ain't the old days. They know what to do for "us" now. (well, they do if you ask enough questions....) I avoided a collision...
  6. .......If you do not like fireworks, why, yer just a crazy person!! Fireworks are AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! Hellooooooo dinner peeps! Had a fabulous time at the wedding. Legs still work after dancing my face off for hours. whoohoo! hmm...maybe I should post this in the thread about "paranoid to go to a wedding"--maybe later--- but I my cousin made sure...
  7. there is enough cheek to pinch...facial or gluteal LOL I am sure I sent you the HH info, because anytime someone I care about has chronic pain and inflammation, I "go there" in my head (as does My Ski Lisa) but if not, you're getting it (again, probably) via email. Dinner tonight: Rustic pizza while I pack a "to go" bag of clothes and food...
  8. if it matters, that's what I would do. (walnuts and vinegar are HH, and I knew that when I suggested things to you.... but if you did a tiny bit, you should be ok!).
  9. I'd chunk it over field greens, sprinkle with candied nuts and maybe some vinaigrette. Eat it with pears. I'd also make a mini "cheesecake" muffin with it (sub gluten-free flour, obviously). http://foodandspice.blogspot.com/2009/07/blueberry-goat-cheese-muffins.html I'd eat it by the tablespoon or on a cracker or try this compote...
  10. Throwing a wobbly ...why that's just A fantastic expression, MW In New England, we call it "having a s$#& fit" or "throwing a nutty", "popping a cork or popping a gasket"...or just plain "I'm friggan pissed"..(not to be confused with pissed as in drunk, but pissed as in really super mad) ....although I did hear this new one today on Gdude...she...
  11. for God's sake woman, I just drooled copiously on my laptop....oh my, that sounds fabulous. rhubarb crisp....waaaa, i want that!!! No one says "oozing and unctuous" and gets away with it...except you. love it! xx

  13. huh??? This did not seem "relevant" to anyone?? damn doctors.... sorry, hon.. but very glad you found us and I hope you feel better and put some weight on soon. xx
  14. Now, this is a perfect example of the beauty of the English language, (but first...a hug for your boo-boo and your ensuing "strop") Darling girl, please tell the dinner peeps what "getting over your strop" means. (I know, but they may not) It's a fabulous word!! Hopefully, you have dodged the bullet. And for the love of mike, have them eat...
  15. Hi Megzydee, I appreciate your kind words and yes, I am still healing, but I have come so far and I am grateful for every day. I am not at all the sick and dying woman I was. I was able to return to the gym after 2.5 years of rehabbing my wasting painful muscles and it feels good to be able to do "normal things" once more! I am sorry that you, too...
  16. Have to go traipsing around to find shoes today,while more people come gawk at my house and land (ugh--I hate this stranger parade !) and then go to The Gym (cuz my hip is better and I need to get all flexible again so I can dance at the wedding ) so dinner tonight will be Encore meatloaf sandwiches and tossed salad and probably some fruit salad of...
  17. oh great, now I have a vision of you in a corset and heels...petting a giraffe...having a foodgasm. The hubs just asked if we could have BLT's in roll ups (I use tortillas wraps) for dinner because we had a long day out and I deserve to relax..because I also had my blood drawn for my checkup at the GI doc next week ....(yes, I am sitting on a...
  18. I should clarify... I'm not a "frilly" girly girl. I'm like Katherine Hepburn. I feel I can wear pants and big earrings and still be sexy. I don't like to shop for clothes, but I can browse in other kinds of shops happily. Sur La Table? Williams Sonoma? oh yeah baby. I know there will be more than champagne for me, or so I hear. My cousin has 1...
  19. If it ain't, it is now. Love it. I forced myself to go to the mall (ARGH! I hate shopping) to buy a (GASP!) dress for a wedding Saturday in Massachusetts.. I am not a frilly girlie girl and I LOATHE pantyhose(who invented those blasted gawd-awful things?? (ARGH!) and to get over my distaste for shopping, I ate lunch at a place (ironically) called...
  20. Catching up here..okay, I .LOVE lemons, LOVE sea bass, LOVE coconut anything, LOVE waffles, and if you want a giant salt water pool, I will be living near an ocean soon. Come. Visit. Me. Ski, the cover story on the Conservationist Mag hubs gets every month--wild mushrooms. I swear, Shroomie keeps sending us signs. Sunday night the power was off for...
  21. ah, the simple pleasures, eh, Ski? Still ridiculously and unseasonably hot here today (I like it, but everyone else is whining and complaining already...same people who harp on the snow and cold all winter...) and, I am thinking chicken on the grill and a big salad wiith some nuts, goat cheese feta, mandarin slices, raspberry vinaigrette (pushing the...
  22. Whoohoo!! I trust the " so far so good "continued?
  23. My Mom LOVES the genius bread. I have not had it yet--not available here. Enjoy!! I LOVE burgers( I admit it) and we had them tonight with asparagus on the grill. It's 93 dang degrees here. and I had BA-CON on those BEANS last night and all is well in the land. (so.....that's eggs, beans, toms and bacon I got back ...............so, whoohooo...
  24. And all of my 5 angels too. I suspect my Dad is bouncing them on his knees and showing them around his garden. God got a master gardener when he got my Dad. :) Amy, you are an intelligent, funny and wise woman.!! Stay off gluten and live a long , happy life. If you ever need a kick in the pants to remind you, call on me. Or Mindwarp. :) or both....
