Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Well, I hope your horses and carts get themselves properly aligned and all those chickens hatch, msbelle.
I am so not on top of things this week I don't even know. I'm giving up on getting ahead and just going to work on keeping my head above water for the next little while, I think.
I have no retirement party ideas.
That sounds like the gluten-free beef jerky I saw. I suppose there could be a grain-based filler in the stuff, but I think it's more marketing stuff.
So I just had some black tea (English Teatime) and the labels is marked "Gluten free." Are there teas that have gluten?
I know there's a Celestial Seasonings holiday tea (maybe gingerbread flavor) that has gluten. It doesn't literally have gingerbread, of course, but for some reason the flavoring they use is barley-based. Weird.
But plain old tea leaves are kind of GF by default. Did the label also say "100% mayonnaise-free!"?

True tea does not have gluten, but some teas will have things like barley malt for sweetening, and thus are not gluten free.
Did the label also say "100% mayonnaise-free!"?
I think it said, "May contain trace amounts of mayonnaise."

I was just laughing about that kind of thing with friends -- one had seen a gluten-free label on a tomato. A TOMATO.
Granted, I now see that things sold as tea may have gluten, but still.
Granted, I still have a lot of people tell me they don't know what gluten IS, so they don't know how to provide gluten-free food for me,* so labelling a tomato is apparently a good idea.

I hate it when I wake up cranky.
I had such a parental fail this morning. I yelled at both kids. I yelled at my son because he refused to get dressed, and then refused to wear a shirt and insisted he was going to go to school that way. Oy! And then my daughter because, for the upteentn time, I found her waterbottle upside down in her backpack where it had leaked all over her schoolwork, math book, piano theory book, and the upholstered chair where it was all sitting.
sigh. Yes, annoying, but yelling doesn't fix anything. It only makes us late for the bus. It was driving away as I drove up, but luckily the driver was nice enough to pull over and let them on.
So morning of parental fail.
