[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

move out and draw fire

I somehow made it through 4 hours at work today. 3 more days of this and I get tested for mono.

I will be unhappy if it's mono, as I haven't swapped spit with anyone other than Mal and the DH, and neither of them have it.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Aims, if you like to bake (and have time to do so), you can make damn near anything with Pamela's Baking Mix, including scones.

t edit Not, of course, what would be considered "proper" British scones, but they are scone-like. They are not muffin-y and sweet.

And let me reiterate that the crock-pot lasagna (which is from the Year of Slow Cooking site: [link] is FUCKING AWESOME.

My understanding is that you can make it with regular lasagna noodles also, for any gluten-y people reading this who are envious.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Lasagna is Joe's most very favorite dish. To make it more often than anually would probably make me even more awesome than I already am.

Aims, it rocks, because you just layer all the ingredients in the crock pot (including UNCOOKED NOODLES, could anything be easier???) and then walk away.

I have loads of gluten-free recs, so let me know how much you want to know, or if you have any specific questions. The good people at Chex Cereal are as gods to me, because a lot of their cereals are GF now, including the awesome Cinnamon Chex.

Hey. New board.

I like a lot of the Year of Slow Cooking recipes, though I often find I need to add a little more seasoning than she adds. But I will definitely try that lasagna!

If it's not too personal, Steph, does Tim find that being GF help his ADHD at all?

I suck. I'm having family over on Sunday. Today was my last day to be at home all day to get the house in order and I got nothing done.

Compassionately intolerant

I echo many of Tep's recommendations and can add Trader Joe's English muffins, sliced and well toasted. I've really enjoyed them with peanut butter, etc.

That is the only gluten-free bread I've liked.
