    I was prescribed that as well, and had the same reaction as you. "I'm not using this stuff!!" Every fiber of my being said "NO".

    Hi errbody! LTNS...Life is really busy these days! I hope you are all well. Dinner tonight: Mashed garlicky cauliflower Sukuma Wiki (Kenyan Braised Collard Greens and Ground Beef) recipe here if you're interested: http://thedomesticman.com/2013/07/02/sukuma-wiki-kenyan-braised-collard-greens-and-ground-beef/#more-4993 I've been drinking ACV in a...

    I don't go out driving in Portland when it snows. Let me be clear: I know how to drive in snow. I grew up in New England. But no one - not. a. single. person. - in Portland knows how to drive in snow, plus they don't plow the streets, so it's just a mess. (FYI, Portlanders also don't know how to drive in rain. I cannot figure that one out...) (FYI#2, I...

    Oh quesadillas sound goooooood! I am *this* close to getting dairy back and that will be one of the first things put back into rotation. What kind cheese do you use? (Details please and speak slowly... ) Tonight I am making shepherd's pie. It's darn cold out and perfect for it. But I have no lamb, so it'll be elk inside and I am adding green beans and...

    Oh! I know that brand. I'll have to see if my store carries their gluten-free ones... Thanks!
  6. ItchyAbby
    hehehe! I like how you roll, Addy! (Or should I say, ImpatientAbby appreciates your comradery) I like DeLallo pasta too. I am also a fan of Jovial's gluten-free pastas, especially their tagliatelle, but they are not easy to find. What are these magical crackers that everyone is speaking of? I will have to scroll back to find the source!

    So dinner tonight will be a as-yet-unnamed soupy thing: homemade chicken broth, coconut milk, kuri pumpkin, tons of ginger, cilantro, leafy greens and tiny pork meatballs. It's tasty and easy. But that's totally not why I'm here. I am here to tell you that I had the most intense craving for...biscotti? And not just any old biscotti but the traditionally...

    Dinner tonight: Slow cooked Beef Shanks with carrots, parsnips and leeks (Beau Monde spices) SuperSimpleSalad I was going to try making some popovers or Pão de Queijo (Vegano since I am not eating cheese yet) but after baking pies and prepping biscuits all afternoon, I'm gonna pass. Besides, tomorrow will be a baked good fest! Now I just gots to keep ...
  9. ItchyAbby
    Tonight: Burgers on HUMONGINORMOUS biscuits ...with homemade relish and tomato jam. Oh and a salad.

    *licks screen furiously* &$*%&#(#@!!!! I cannot wait until I can eat dairy again. Mac n cheese was my all-time, #1, most awesomest, favoritest comfort food and I have not had it for months!. I'm going to go cry now. (j/k. but i am going to go stuff my face with coconut butter)
  11. ItchyAbby
    dinner tonight: goat curry with cauliflower, carrots and greebees (this'll prolly be dinner for the next week. i made a veritable mountain of the stuff.) garlic naan (http://myheartbeets.com/paleo-naan-indian-bread/%C2'> salad wit avocado oil/lemon/maple syrup dressing and then for dessert, i will raid the new goodies i got in the mail, esp the...
  12. ItchyAbby
    Oh I will. I lurve me some waffles...but I am guessing that I might have to wait but until I can eat egg yolks and butter again. *le sigh* Indeed! The world is a horrible place when I am sleep deprived. You are right of course. I think my preference would probably lean toward Belgian-style, as well, but sometimes the thin crispier ones are good...
  13. ItchyAbby
    Ooh! I'm in the market for a waffle iron. What brand did you get? Is it Belgian style or regular?
  14. ItchyAbby
    Much better, thank you! A good night's rest and a calm day today are just what the doctor ordered to clear out the funks.
  15. ItchyAbby
    Tonight's dinner at Casa de Itchy: Squash soup with sage Bacon-y roasted cauliflower Big Salad, per usual Comfort food for this rainy day.

    I have a patch right on my sacrum and I bargain with it often: "Please, please don't creep down my butt crack, ok?" It's crazy that your doc is uncomfortable with seeing the human body! Isn't that like, his job? I completely lost all modesty this year - i show the rash to everyone! (Ok maybe not the almost-buttcrack area...)
  17. ItchyAbby
    Yes! This is a well know painting titled "Death of Marat" I was an art major in college and when I came across this reference in my research I might have squealed a little. Very cool. I do take lots of baths when the rash is flared up. A screaming hot bath with Epsom salts followed by ice packs is my go-to bedtime ritual. When I have to be moving about...
  18. ItchyAbby
    It's pure misery. For three years, my rash was just a few spots (like in the first picture). Then it just exploded this year and is taking it's sweet time calming down.
  19. ItchyAbby
    Ok, I'll add mine: This first one is February 2013, right after my first biopsy: This is late March 2013: And this is what it turned into by Summer 2013: It's alarmingly symmetrical, with the right side being somewhat more impacted:

    I love pistachio and amaretto and hazelnut - any of the nuts flavors, really, though I have not had chestnut and now must - M U S T - find some. Does it taste like roasted chestnuts? (Gawd, I love the smell of roasting chestnuts) I am also very fond of just sweet cream gelato or ice cream - pure n simple. Dammit. Now I want gelato!
  21. ItchyAbby
    I can help. I am well-versed in these things. She is almost certainly talking about gelato. *beams proudly*
  22. ItchyAbby
    Yes! That's the one I love! They have a few flavors that do not have eggs in them, so it will be one of the first things in line when I can get off the low-iodine train.
  23. ItchyAbby
    Tonight: Pumpkin chili with avocado cream (I just harvested the last of the peppers and the first of the pumpkins!) I might make some kind of cornbread muffins (with lard! ) if I am feeling ambitious. And a Salad, of course, probably with pears. What brand of gelato do you like? I am counting the days until I can eat it again...and they...
  24. ItchyAbby
    *butts in* Oh hi! Are we talking about pie crust? I am tasked with making the pies for my family turkey day dinner this year and I am excited/nervous. I was also looking at trying out the BRM pie crust mix but I am also wanting to try to make the lard crust from the cookbook Beyond Bacon. I LURRRRRVE lard pie crust! Now I just have to figure out how to make...

    Interesting indeed. No wonder Dh is notoriously hard to diagnose. It's on the completely submerged part of the iceberg it seems.
