    I tried to make gluten free pizza dough. Forget it.
    Pack that gluten on my pizza.
    I used chickpea flour. No one on Gods Green earth is going to convince me those gluten free flours or God forbid Califlower crust is good for pizza.

    We boil water with a little vinegar, salt, and add a lemon cut in four pieces to the water. Bring water to boil.Then add crawdads. When the crawdads turn red you know they are done. NOW don't forget to ice the crawdads as soon as you can. From hot water to ice.

    Yesterday there was a site reciting the Worst Pizza for your health.
    Based on Per Slice.And the magic number started at 390 calories.
    Then topping out at 800.Most were in the 400 + calorie range.
    Fat content { % } being the biggest culprit.
    There is a case to be made that just eat less but the best.
    Same with Booze.I mean,why bother with a Pizza topped with
    mystery red sauce,lemongrass and maybe if lucky a few parsley
    sprigs.No Cheese.No Meat.No seasonings at all.The Bread is
    also of Mystery origins.Maybe a fitting last meal for a recent
    inductee of Hell.

    Yeah, gravy is tomato sauce with meat in it. Marinara (ma-din-ahd) is tomato sauce with no meat.

    I had no idea it is a southern custom to eat blackeyed peas with greens for good luck on New Year's. Also how beautiful fields of bluebonnets are in Texas. Just a few of the things I learned from you.
    This bar will always hold a special place in my heart. I've learned many things reading posts from my bar buddies.

    I am a 1200 calorie a day woman. Less if I want to lose some weight. I eat old school. Like how we ate growing up. Greens, beans, vegetables, fish, meat a few times a week. Not every day. I eat fresh fruit every day. Little bread or sweets. If I'm going to eat pizza it's going to be good tasting pizza. Usually one slice and some salad and I'm full.
    Valentine's Day it's a rum cake. So I'll definitely need to reset the gluten and sugar clock. Im going to enjoy every forkful of that cake.
    If I want something I wont deny myself. But I wont over due it either.

    " People do what they want,Kid.I don't tell 'em what to do ".


    From - Sometimes a Great Notion - { 1971 } one of the last scenes
    and a typical Paul Newman quote.His kind will never be seen or heard from
    again in Hollywood.It's a Great Movie that very few even know about.Let alone
    have seen.That is why Foolardi is here at Political Forums.
    To remind We the People of what IS and once was and still possible.
    It requires No Facebook or Twitter account.Just being a Mensch.
    Is all.
    Is what.

    So Danny,it would not be advisable to date a chick who is
    Gluten-free.Because that would translate into her having No shape.
    A fellar wouldn't be able to git all sticky and jiggy with her.Like
    with Polka Dancing.

    Its good that you have doctors who are keyed in and trying to help you. I hope it works out well for you. You've been feeling not up to par for too long.

    You have more won't power than I do. Weight has never been my problem, but I do have to watch my blood sugars.
    I have found taking the edge off (small indulgences) of bad stuff (sugars) works out a lot better for me, because if one of my evil co-workers brings in something really bad for me, I rarely can resist. If I've taken the edge off with a small bit of something, I can resist.

    Pizza has now become part of my no-fly list, because of the tomato involved. However, a ham and chees calzone with fresh minced garlic, is permissible. With a LOT of insulin, lol. A rare treat!

    I think when you have to deal in, cant have something, it is much harder to come to terms with than freely making the decision that I just wont have that.
    It may take me some time to make my mind up about something. Once my mind is made up that's it, until I change my mind. lol

    I'm trying to think how Cajuns cook up a mess of crayfish.
    Maybe Justin Wilson has an old YouTube explaining.
    I know they serve them on a large plate { like a couple dozen }.
    I used to catch crawfish in small creeks as a kid.It was fun like
    catching butterflies.Or looking for Indian arrowheads.I once found a
    stone the size of a ping pong ball that was like mostly silver.

    Um what if yer mind isn't in the mood for what you Like or don't
    like.Sometimes a mind is a serious thing to compete with.
    Like Girls in High school trying out for the Cheerleading squad.
