Over a year ago I discovered that I was allergic to gluten. Since then I've discovered I am allergic to many other foods as well, cheese, chicken, beef, it's actually easier to tell what I can eat than what I cannot eat, LOL I...

catherIN Trust me, you can make cake without flour. Lucky for you! Keep in mind a cake like this will not have the exact texture of a traditional cake since there is no flour. It may make you think more of a texture of a brownie. This may even make you think of a...

My teenage daughter has become a vegetarian. Does anyone have some good recipes that I can cook & freeze? My thought is it would be nice to make serving size portions that she can pull out of the freezer.

catherIN Wow. Thank you for typing out all of those recipes!

I tend to write LONG letters, articles, reviews, etc. Because of how long my writtings usually are, I write everything in a word processor so that I can save it often, and then I can copy and paste my writting where I want it....

catherIN I think it's because we get money for starting a discussion & responding;not for comments. When we post like this, we are just making a comment [notice it says comment where you click]. As for my number, that is my own fault. I have had spans of time...

catherIN :) From my understanding,no your response to my response did not add to your post count total. The same goes for what I'm typing right now. I am replying to your reply, so no, my number will not go up from this. Make sense?

catherIN Thank you for your reply. I feel bad having to say this, but yes, according to the VET, Beagles are known for problems with their discs. The Vet said it is mostly hereditary. Unfortunately, there isn't really anything to prevent it. If it is going to...

catherIN Oh no, I didn't mean to make you feel bad. I'm in agreement that your wait was way to long. I just don't like the way medical treatment - a.k.a. doctors- have become. Patients use to matter. I'm sorry if my tone came across wrong!

I have a hard time choosing just one as my favorite. I was wondering if you have a favorite and why? My choice would be either Alan Jackson, Tim McGraw, George Strait, Keith Urban or Kenny Chessney. Yours?

Do you think giving a child a "time out " is effective when they need discipline? Why do you think it works? If you think time outs are ineffective, why?

catherIN I think time outs work if they are used consistantly. It looks like that's how you have used them. That's great that your daughter has learned that time out can be a cool off and think about it time.

catherIN Yes, everyone has feelings. I wish that everyone would realize that. I was considered over weight after my first few children. I know that side. Plus, as I said all of my family are on the opposite end of the weight spectrum as I am dealing with. It...

catherIN Thank you for your kind words. You see, my problem isn't just that I don't put on weight. I actually can end up losing weight , that I shouldn't, if I'm not very careful. Making a balance of not being hungry, eating enough to stay healthy, yet not losing...
