  1. Thanks, Ski xxo As it so happens, I am also making Bacon Jam today!! I have had that recipe printed off for months and now, it is time. I am using the slow cooker. Why? because I am lazy. Later, we will be having Beef Filets Roasted sweet potatoes and some other veggie as yet to be determined. I still have to bake bread, too...
  2. Thanks so much, MW--I am feeling very grateful for the chance to do "normal things" again. Healing happens.Hang tough. xx Actually, it makes you a little frightening, girlfriend. Now, "leave the gun and take the cannoli." if you know what movie that's from, you get a free pound of bacon. Has anyone ever seen this BACON BLOG...
  3. That's me right now. zzzzz NYC was fab. I'm exhausted.... and it was totally worth it to go and revive our anniversary tradition. I walked for miles, SKI--and I am none the worse for wear. Rockettes, Santa, tons of people--what's not to like? I went in St. Patrick's and said some prayers of thanks that we "came out the other side" of these past crazy...
  4. I am stunned frankly, because I am a techno doofus ---and anytime I try something like that...it does not work. Glad he is still clapping. I am making white pizza for the hubs and we used Bette Hagman's recipe (thank you Sylvia) I turned her onto the bread, she turned me onto the pizza dough. Cool. And God bless Bette Hagman--the queen mother of...
  5. Girlfriend, Holymotherofpearl That is the best summary of our weeks of tomfoolery I have ever read PLUS you posted all your dinners PLUS you were glutened in the process! and still managed to remember all of this stuff.....so you could write a post? I APPLAUD YOU!!!
  6. I saw that bikini!!. and thanks for the hugs...just an ouchy day post physical therapy (I know you know.....) I'll live.

  7. I'm in! What shall we call our restaurant??
  8. Cool. Women everywhere will be rubbing their necks with bacon slabs now. It will be "trendy". Dinner tonight--simple (I am not feeling so spectacular today ) : Meatloaf Sauteed spinach Acorn squash
  9. I call it everything but the kitchen sink breakfast
  10. granted, it is neither bland nor hideous, but I'd just RATHER have what YOU'RE having tonight. Hubs is no fish fan, and so, I only have it once and a while...by myself.... (or with friends who will help me eat it )
  11. ........I have got to stop reading these posts when I am hungry....now, my dinner cooking out there in the kitchen ....sounds like "meh". Did you guys see "When Harry Met Sally"-- -I'll have what she's having!!!
  12. This is what my sibs and I always called them...smashed. Pork tenderloin with roasted shallots and a pinot noir sauce. Glazed baby carrots Homemade applesauce for the hubs. Supposed to be in the 50s and 60s this week in the Great Northeast..I'll believe it when I see it. Yesterday, it was so cold...(19) even the cat balking at going...
  13. Butterscotch pie.....oh wow!!....(drooling...) I LOVE butterscotch. We are having "encores".. of the bison stuffed peppers tonight. But getting no complaints, so that's good. We also had a big lunch--something called a "Breakfast Scramble" It involves eggs, cheese, sauteed peppers, onions, mushrooms, home fries, and......wait for it........bacon...
  14. yum....that sounds De-lish, Alex! Another example of a daughter showing her mom "she knows her stuff" and just like Bac-on!!...you cannot go wrong with butter (IMHO) and I am a huge fan of Irish Kerrygold.
  15. ...um, well I did, but I have an English Prof's eyes.... and it is a curse. (if you meant the grammar) but in terms of "Numbers", well....there's nuttin wrong with that. excess cabana boys...no problem
  16. hahahaha Oh boy, Slackinator it is!! shhh,,,,, well she isn't chunky, sweets, but lovey and I have a pact....no matter how much weight we gain post DX, we'll always be shapely and svelte. (in our own minds...)
  17. :lol: :lol: :lol: holy crap on a cracker....(almost) just as I pictured her. but, in my mind, her thighs are smaller.. but, what a doll! (and I laughed so hard, Sora...I almost peed....) Karen! I spit on the laptop again..--dang)
  18. Welcome home, Sora! Missed you xxoo Hope you are feeling better. Of course you are in! Muumuus for everyone---yaay!! okay, this is weird, but I saw DUMPLINGS and I started to drool on my laptop...calling....pavlov...
  19. SWEET story and if you want, I'l tell you what I did to make that pie.
  20. And this is why we thought it would be okay to call it Dinner and a Chat Seriously, girls....as someone who has had abnormal paps many times, a surgical breast biopsy and a mass removed... and who now undergoes mammos (the new digital mammos and ultra sound) sometimes as often as every 6 months, I can honestly say DO NOT PANIC or lose any sleep--just...
  21. I can relate to being thrilled by a mom's kudos on our cooking. Mine was here for Thanksgiving. Her amazing apple pie was legendary and always my Birthday cake ---and I actually cried at the prospect of never having that flaky deliciousness ever again when I was Dxed. She went gluten-free after my diagnosis, so no more pie was made. Fast forward to...
  22. ....... and it isn't necessarily an oncoming train... Like you, I remain steadfast in my resolve to obtain full recovery. & cheers to being "vertical" babes!! go get 'em champ! What does your jerky taste like? I have never made it in my life. Willing to try anything, am I!
  23. Thank you for reinforcing this to all of us, Patti. When I first came on c.com, it was stories like yours and Shroom's and so many others who had to persevere to find a safe repertoire of foods to heal and get well. I say it so often to others, but really need to hear it myself sometimes. Time means healing. I have revamped my diet so many times, it...
  24. I don't mind the "no grains" thing that much. Primal eating is very good. It's the inconvenience . Many of my best recipes include those grains: risottos, mexican, asian, rice pilafs, etc. It's just the idea of one more thing to have to "give up" I mean, why couldn't I have issues with eel, sweetbreads, brains,even snotty marshmallow fluff...
  25. No mystery to me, girls. I get it. Those ER trips pre-DX,,,, only to have a normal EKG? Found it is chostochondiritis. And intense connective tissue pain, muscles like wood ...these are my life. And YES, definitely celiac related. The good thing is, it gets less intense with time, massages, PT, stretching, etc, Glad you are all right, Lovey! I suggest warm...
