Sweet Pizza Sauce?
Comments (5)UGH- don't even get me STARTED on that rant!! Lorna-organic, I'm "allergic" to tomatoes as well. Have been since a child.. but the funny part is that my mom always used jarred junk sauce. when i got older- i grew my own tomatoes- even if i coulndt eat them. to my surpise- I CAN eat them fresh from the garden- as long as they are not over-ripe!!! I think for jarred sauce they use the most ripe, practically rotten tomatoes and thats why i get so sick. i didnt know they add that sugar to it since i don't buy it- however i'm not shocked in the LEAST. Check your peanutbutter. That one ticks me off. Only buy natural peanutbutter! i always tell people- when I want sugar- i will eat SUGAR- in the form of cookies, chocolate- whatever.. because I want JUNK. But the problem in this country is that unless you are very careful ( as I am for my family) ALL of your food is "junk". I dont want sugar in my peanutbutter or anything else that isnt supposed to be sweet. americans eat everything sweetened without even knowing it, and then add splenda and sweet n low to their coffee and drink diet sodas in desparate attempts to fix the problem... ugh it's a sad sad state of affairs when even peanutbutter and tomatoe sauce are sweet!...See Moresmall rant
Comments (20)I really appreciate you all so much. (((group hug!))) I managed to pawn several things off on other people, a pot luck. So far, I have ended up footing $15 of it. I can swing that. I think I have everything I need too. Mark's house. Heh. He'd love that! Trust me my dear sister, I wash every inch of me in my parents, usually. This is a small hiccup. I called daddy the other night and I think I cried the entire time. He wasn't saying anything earth shattering, it's just I know I am really gonna miss him. He's very ill. cynic, I wish she was bored. She's still not retired. All of her lifetime girl friends are, but not her. She's getting financially ready. Emotionally, I think it'll be especially difficult for her. She's a very social person and loves being at her job with her work friends. She is just really changing. I had a class my last semester of university for my psychology minor, the psychology of aging, and they required us to do an interview with someone who was aging. I could've picked my grandmother, she was still alive, but I picked my mom. My younger sister joined us. Susie and I both told her she wasn't like she was, as kindly as we could, that we were worried, would she consider the new Alzheimer's medications out there? She'd just been through it with her father, and it was prime time. She never did anything about it, and she seems to be going down that same path. Just not enough oxygen going across that brain barrier is wreaking havoc on her acumen. I'd give a million dollars for her to be like she was. This is just a really noticeable difference. Those suggestions are exactly what I'm doing with daddy. Ancestry is the fun one there. I'm ready for some fun! I had two tires go out on the car. Well not yet, but they're going. Bulging. So I can't drive it. Nor can I find tires since everyone is getting road worthy. Mom has to come pick me up to get there on Monday. It's so much fun being me....See Morerant: recipe reviews without trying the recipe
Comments (28)I've been thinking about this. I usually look at all the reviews and find the ones in the middle that overlap. If there a million of them that say the sauce was too salty, I go with less salt. I toss the ones that sub unless I see how the sub makes more sense than what the recipe has. Or if I don't have what is needed, but someone substituted what I do have. Don't most sites require the rating before comments? I wish they were separate. It's those who give low stars after subbing everything that make me laugh. I just think "Maybe if you didn't change the recipe completely, it would've been great? Hello?" HA! I have two 1/8 measuring cups and use them constantly, more than others! It's great when I want to make a roux, because most recipes call for 2T of butter and 2T of flour. So one scoop and toss it into the pan. Love my 1/8 cups. I did have an 1/8t measuring spoon, but it's gone? :( I need to buy a new set. Maybe I'll go do that now......See MoreCeliac disease: A rant
Comments (54)Gluten sensitivity is a funny thing. One study (Neurogastroentrology, 2018) gave people with non-celiac gluten sensitivity 2 muffins a day made either with or without gluten. All were on a GF diet. Only 20% were able to correctly identify when they were given the gluten. Other said their symptoms were worse on days they got the GF muffins. There are those who think gluten sensitivity isn't about gluten at all, but the roundup they spray on the wheat to kill it before harvest as apparently it's easier to harvest dead wheat than live. So this whole gluten sensitivity stuff is still very curious and a lot more research needs to be done....See Morehabjolokia z 6b/7
