    Yall crack me up! Tonight was chicken alfredo with peas and garlic bread. Funny when the gluten eaters eat my gluten-free garlic bread and then start questioning me on its gluten-free-ness, LOL!

    I need to hook you up with my mother in law, she is the only person I trust to cook for me because she is as anal retentive as I am, LOL. They live in middle Georgia. From there to my house you can drive it in a day, but it ain't pretty! LOL

    Tonight was grilled pork tenderloin, garlic mashed potatoes, carrots, and salad. I thawed out two whole pork tenderloins last night and forgot to put them back in the fridge, found them this morning. At least they were on sale, haha. Tossed those and cooked a smaller portion I had in the freezer. I am about to go frost a king arthur flour gluten-free...

    LOLOLOL!!!!! Tonight we went to Texas de Brazil, a Churrascaria style steak house. Had a half off deal and wanted to take my teenage relatives who haven't even been in a nice restaurant before, they thought it was the best thing ever. Nomnomnomnom steak! Steak is how you score! (that is a saying my best friend made up, we still use it!)

    I understand the difficulty cooking for one. Cooking for just my husband and I gets difficult. I use the freezer a lot... freeze half a can of tomato sauce, some shreds of cheese, some cut up chicken meat. Some things freeze better than others but I already pay enough for food, so I continue to save things to keep those costs down That is why I get excited...

    HA! My husband also likes to discourage my use of knives. What did you bread your fried chicken with? I use gluten-free bisquik and it turns out good, but there is always room to improve. Tonight is grilled chicken, sweet potato fries, and green beans.

    Yes, a low IgG would make the ttg IgG not reliable as well. I have low IgA and IgG, therefore my ttg IgA and ttg IgG are worthless. My ttg IgA was a 4, which was borderline high according to the lab, but since I have almost no natural IgA, you can take that to scale and see that is definitely a positive reading when there was so little IgA to go around...

    Welcome, Robbo! Your total IgA is low, therefore the tissue transglutaminase (ttg for short) IgA result is invalid as it will not be accurate, in this case it is a false negative. Your ttg IgG is definitely a positive. Overall, this means you have positive blood antibodies for Celiac disease, so your next step is to get a referral to a GI specialist...

    Yesterday was gnocchi with just butter and parm, with green beans on the side. Tonight will be grilled pork tenderloin with roasted potatoes and carrots. Tomorrow I am making nachos! I have two teenagers coming to visit me next week so I will have to make more kid friendly food. Nice to have someone to bake for, though.

    Today I went to sams club and they had freshetta gluten-free pizza!! Yaaaaaaay!!! Im eating it right now, pretty good!

    Tonight I have cut up pork tenderloin that I usually make stir fry with, but I think I am going to do like a beef tips and gravy with it. Just want something different and more comfort food-ish. I think I have been eating stir fry too much lately, haha.

    Today I made grilled chicken with green beans and sweet potatoes. Have had a terrible mirgraine since my IVIG treatment thursday, still not really better. I have stuff to do, this needs to go away!!

    I make a similar meal to that every week and eat it for my lunches while my veggie hating husband is at work, LOL! That slush idea sounds yummy. I have always been a fan of the OJ/Vodka slush things, I think they have a name but I forget, LOL. My aunt always makes them. I have a kitchenaid ice cream maker attachment and it is basically the...

    Get out of my head, that is what I am having, too!!! Also if you 100% always use the hand guard, a mandoline is safer than trying to slice things with precision and a knife. Use that argument to get the hubs to cave! I, too, will squeal with joy, jump up and down, do the happy gasp thing. I don't care, I am happy! LOL I also loudly grumble...

    Oh No Addy!!!! *Gives you a bandaid* Stop being like me and demonstrating the un-safety of kitchen knives! LOL! At least you don't need stitches. I keep disposable gloves in my house for when I cut myself and still need to cook. I also handle raw poultry with them. Tonight for dinner is gonna be leftovers! The most gourmet dinner of them all!

    I totally plan on working in my jammies with unbrushed teeth and hair, LOL
  18. LauraTX
    Oh god you people make me want cheesy food now! LOL! Addy, I, too, love bargain shopping. When it comes to non-necessities and clothes, I basically refuse to pay full price. I have been in the interview process for a job where I train at the office for 2 months then work from home taking calls for a major company. I checked my application status online...

    Yesterday I made a peach cobbler with all the fresh peaches I have available right now. It turned out absolutely wonderful. I used this KAF recipe: http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/new-recipe-06/10/2013-gluten-free-peach-cobbler-made-with-baking-mix-recipe which is nearly identifal to the peach cobbler recipe I used to use pre- gluten-free days....

    Breakfast for dinner today!

    I heard somewhere... I don't recall now, some gluten-free blog... but Aldi decided to make the gluten-free items permanent and they will be back near the end of the year, and a few stores in the Northeast will permanently have them starting now.

    Today for lunch we had hot dogs and oven baked sweet potato fries. Went out for ice cream after. Then for dinner I had worked up a big appetite reorganizing closets, so I made grilled pork tenderloin with Stubbs BBQ seasoning (certified gluten-free and awesome btw) with corn on the cob and green beans. At the grocery store today(well technically yesterday...

    Tonight will be black eyed peas with ham and spinach. Have a happy and safe holiday tomorrow, don't drink and drive, and don't hold fireworks in your hand when lighting them.

    Today I am making pizza for dinner. I think my husband didn't get a real lunch break so he will probably woof it down!
