wheat.....found out last January

Your poor daughter - the change in her diet must be a huge adjustment for her.
I've had to change my way of eating due to my ulcerative colitis so I feel for her - it stinks to not be able to eat what others love to eat.
I hope she's doing ok

 

[Meriweather]

She is doing fine and feels better, but she is a very picky eater in the best of times, so this is a challenge for her.
Texture is an issue too and the change is not always a good feeling or taste to her.
It's hit and miss and trying lots of things for her.

^ It’s good that you try to find things she likes. I hope this Christmas breakfast treat is a good one!

I made them.....not baking until Friday. They look good, but gluten free tends to be dry, so we'll see. I'll make lots of icing and that should take care of it

Good morning! Christmas Eve, a quiet night for us. Will stream a Mass from St Patrick cathedral in NYC. Probably watch the fire and do a puzzle with DH for a bit.

I’m.....making my MIL’s homemade lasagna recipe for dinner tonight. They aren’t coming over, due to COVID (first time in 25 years - it sucks, but it’s for the best), and my DH asked if I could make it because his mom hasn’t made it since before we were married, which was 25 years ago. I said I would, but I’m a little nervous - it only calls for 12oz of tomato paste - how can that be correct? This is going to be the driest lasagna ever. I did buy some Prego just in case, but i will follow the recipe and hope for the best. I’m also making some spaghetti and premade tortellini too, so if the lasagna is a bust we still have the other items. The only person eating dinner with us tonight is my DD(17)s boyfriend and if the lasagna isn’t good he won’t judge - he’s a great young man.

Happy Christmas Eve!!

I have some cooking to do this morning.
Going to DS's for dinner......and then back again tomorrow for the day

Good Morning!

I’m....very glad that all my Christmas preparations are complete so I can relax in front of the tv after work today. Two people told me yesterday they haven’t started their shopping yet . That stresses me out just thinking about it LOL!

....I still have to get a few things, but I'm almost done....however, I do have to go food shopping for our Christmas dinner. In all fairness though, we did just get back from WDW.

We'll see. Have you tried them? It's a Cinnabon copycat. I think they just need to get to room temp before baking.
I just made the cream cheese frosting for them.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

I am playing santa this morning 2:30 MST, wife present very cubersome to wrap, so had to put it under the tree now. stepped outside to smell the fragrance of the rain, yep Dan folgeberg...the sunshiine turned into rain...but in a beautiful way

Christmas eve went to a small lutheran church in shape of mission,candle light and windows out over the palms, for sure a covid spreader, but I wore my mask and this building never closed for covid....so maybe it still has some magic...not crowded ...but not distanced either....I was the youngest one in the crowd..

and it perhaps it is all about mis direction...pulpit kept refering to Monday as being in the east. watched NBC Wonderful life and what a suprise from Chick fil lay commercial....indeed the hope of the season is within in us still...that we are not mis directed....that what it is old and tired in a Jimmy Stewart way is still very fresh

we here on the sunniest place on earth are in the begining of our summer...so I am busy with all the family and friends who were far away in the summer months are now near and dear as we swim,golf, play cards, hike, go to mexico, sun bathe and i my farmer markets that are doing well....eating out on city sidewalks. but still taking those daily naps.....the infusion meds do tire me so.....every evening a new hand of cards and displays of Christmas lights as we take a new block home.....everyone wishing us Merry Christmas with their grand displays of lights

may you find light in the New year☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀

Merry Christmas, Gamers

Merry Christmas Everyone!

I’m....missing our normal Christmas traditions, but enjoying and feeling blessed with the new memories we are making. The main thing I missed is attending Christmas Eve Mass. Our church is small and allows only a certain amount of people in and you have to reserve a spot. We have a lot of elderly people that are members and I didn’t want to take a spot from them so I didn’t reserve a spot for our family - I wanted the elderly people to have our place. We watched online, which is not the same, but it’s better than nothing.

Enjoy your day everyone!
This is my last Christmas Day as not a Grandma - next year I’ll have my squishy & cuddly 8 month old grandson

I’m.....gonna go shopping for my DH’s 50th birthday decorations - he turns 50 on Monday. Not having a big party, just a small party with the girls and DSIL. It’s a shame COVID doesn’t allow for a larger party. It’s a bummer but we’ll still have fun
