  1. Last night, we had quinoa pasta with portabella mushroom ragout. Tonight (because it is Friday!!)... it's pizza night. Had some of those gorgeous portabellas left, so I made a quick tomato sauce, with basil and oregano and thyme from the garden and sauteed some bellas and shallots and did a 3-cheese pizza. it's baking now....smells okay so...
  2. Have a safe journey. (and eat a few extra bites of everything for me and describe it to me in full detail later so I can drool on my laptop.) Enjoy yourself, B! xx
  3. Gee, er,um...thanks, sweets, but no thanks. I have plenty of experience in losing weight the "sick" way and it's not fun. I'll just cut back on the carbs and sweets and wear sweatpants for a few weeks. Seriously, I do hope you feel better soon! xxoo Dinner tonight: Salmon Swiss chard Apples---they are coming out our ears. Most are...
  4. That's right, A! SORA! Girl, where the heck ARE those muumuus anyway? Geesh, looks like a package sent through the Canadian postal service is slower in coming than a compliment from a mother-in-law. Dinner tonight: lettuce and water.
  5. I hope you feel better ADALAIDE!! xxoo I know you will think this sounds BLECHY right now, but if I do not share this, I will burst. I had hub's cousins here for a reunion (as in--- they have not seen each other for 40 years --when they were kids) so I "did it up". Dinner was: Marinated, herbed roasted peppers & goat cheese on crostini. Salmon...
  6. I think we can all agree on this: if something makes you feel lousy, don't do it anymore. I think we can all agree on this too: just because this reaction happened to the OP, it doesn't mean it will happen to all of us. We could speculate all day long what caused her to feel ill, but we will never know the answer. In regards to the technology...
  7. Oh, and Irishheart? Just because you mentioned feeling sick from strong perfumes.:-) Am I recalling right that you have issues with sulfites? If that's correct, you might be interested to know that a lot of sulfite sensitive folks react to perfumes. Some have severe reactions, but most I've spoken to say their reactions are mild, often headaches, dizziness...
  8. This is exactly the case. I did not deny her symptoms at all. I have reread this thread and no one called her a "psycho" as she has stated. I tried to explain what the word psychosomatic meant in terms of the bodily response (it's the same explanation as yours) and I tried to provide a possible and reasonable explanation for what may have happened. ...
  9. for one quick second, I read this and thought, "oh, that's me after 1 drink now"
  10. May I just suggest something here? The word psychosomatic in medical language does not mean "psycho" or crazy or mentally ill or any other derogatory or negative word. Not at all. This is a misconception. It's a description of real symptoms (a person does not "make them up") that come about from stress or the gut/brain connection from the nervous system...
  11. well, there are those who would say NO, you can never catch me because I am Chatty McTalksalot. (Sylvia? Karen? LOVE2? --go ahead---I can take it LOL) Anyone with over 501 posts can edit that little section under your avatar. It does not affect your status as an "advanced community member". It's just "decorative". See LOVE2TRAVEL's (she is secretly...
  12. I am sure many regions are suffering because of the hot summer/drought, but the local farmer here (I'm in upstate NY) did not raise his prices. Still 50 cents an ear. I remember my Mom would pay 10 cents an ear and the produce guy --- who came around on a truck to our street in Boston----would give her a deal: a dozen for a buck.(showing my age here...
  13. yum....alfredo!! Not today, however. Meatloaf (the ground turkey kind) Roasted potatoes Corn (before the summer ends and it's gone) and (not me, just hubs)-- a canoli made at the gluten-free bakery/restaurant near us. I am not partaking. I'm not. I mean it. Signed, Chubster McFattypants
  14. As Peter said, airborne flour can linger in the air and if you did inhale it, it would indeed travel into the GI tract. I felt woozy in the baking section of the supermarket when I was very ill from celiac and shortly after my diagnosis, but in retrospect, I was woozy all the time and so sick, that I cannot state for certainty that it was caused ...
  15. I found the recipe in The Gluten Free Edge by Peter Bronski and Melissa McLean Jory, MNT but it is also cited here, on her website: http://www.glutenfreeforgood.com/blog/out-west-chili-con-carne
  16. It is!....want me to send the recipe to you?
  17. holy smokes....I am actually quoting myself! Does anyone ever do that?? well, I have to share this info.... Bison chili..is outrageously delicious!
  18. Just my opinion, but yes, please, try to eat some protein of some kind. You are getting over the "bug", right? Hope you feel better soon.
  19. Hope you feel better soon! I am going to try Peter and Kelli Bronski's Bison Chili recipe tonight.
  20. Girl, I still drool with every post you make. I LOVE swiss chard. (and I love you, kiddo.)xxoo so, tonight, I tried GFreeinMO's homemade sausage patties and I will send her a PM to tell her that she nailed that one big time! yowzers! Our apple trees are bearing so much fruit and the addition of the apple to a local farmer's hand ground sausage...
  21. Patti and I posted simultaneously. 34 bags? holymotherofpearl. That's a lot of work. Good for you! I'm with you guys. Chebe pizza with bacon, fresh tomatoes, fresh julienned basil, 3 cheeses (mozz, shaved parm and smoked provolone) and carmelized onions. ***I should add: This pizza is for the hubs only. I have gone wholefoods/paleo for...
  22. How sweet. Happy Anniversary, Hon!! Cheers! We had BLTs ( we only have a few tomatoes left on the plants, but they are still yummy) on Against the Grain baguettes. Hubs had fresh corn from the nearby farm. I had some giardiniera on the side. I was still full from lunch.
  23. No wonder I am lost. A week ago, as you know, I was in Gluten Head Hell... thanks, I'll take a look.
  24. what's "Bannock " tacos, honey? I am curious
  25. Sweet! In my Grammy's house, it was ice cream. A beautiful memory! I slept in a big brass bed there and looked out a small window at the night sky and see the moon and my Auntie (who lived with my Grams) would tell me..."see the moon, honey? well, every time you look up and see it---just know I love you." cool, huh? Dinner tonight, and...
