When I started the quest to alleviate my IBS symptoms, I thought going Gluten free was the way to go.
I bought 4 kinds of gluten free flour and baked and gagged on most of them, I found only 2 that i could eat.
I found this website and with much research found I These Two Breads are safe.
Bakery Sourdough and French Bread.
Now that I am MadSuperShopperSnapper, I can tell you this bread has saved my IBS life.
I buy three at a time because sometimes they are out of it. I slice in 1 inch slices, and put in airtight baggies and remove my daily needs.
French bread makes fantastic French Toast and that gives me eggs that I don't have to TASTE and I use Pure Maple Syrup. Molasses is another thing I can use.
I use Sourdough with PB and Orange Marmalade, and Egg/cheese on top.
I now have FOUR breakfast foods that I love, Oatmeal is a 5th but I don't LOVE it.
I have to say here that 2 or 3 slices a day is the limit and IF I eat more, I wake up with a stomach ache.
there are foods I can eat if I eat small amounts.
THE GOOD NEWS HERE IS THE FRENCH BREAD IS ONLY ONE DOLLAR!!!!
a week of breakfast except for the eggs and syrup, but I only eat 2 tablespoons of syrup .
Yesterday I told you about the return of the stinky fish and the purchase of 2 rugs for the kitchen. Above Green container is the REASON I found the rugs. On the way searching for where they moved the containers since I last bought one SEVEN years ago.
The one on the right is the one I make my peppermint tea in at bedtime and sip it when I wake up for my IBS problems. Next to it is the NEW one, the green one is the one I dropped, and the green part cracked i half causing the black thing to its left to fall out on the floor. USELESS! It is now in the recycle bin.
I stood staring at a wall of insulated containers! The prices were screaming at me, and I could not decide what I wanted.
A 30 something young woman came to where I was standing, leaned up to put one back, it was 20 dollars. Lord Have Mercy. She had decided she did not need it at that price.
I said to her " what happened to the prices of these cups! we Started to talk, one thing led to another, and I said not only am I reading prices but I need one I can open. My fingers just will not open some of them.
She grabbed one of the silver one above and said Let me show you what my mother does. She has two of these and it unscrews easily, the place where you sip has a cover that you use like this and she showed me how to use 2 thumbs, I gripped it and practiced and as we chatted I saw a young 30ish man come racing up behind her looking like What the heck is taking you so long to put back a container?
He stood staring, we looked at each other an giggled the Men are so CRAZY look and she turned and left me to buy my new mug which I LOVE! The old one next to it cost 2 dollars this one was 13.00 dollars.. OUCH! but I did meet an really nice young woman who helped me. What is wrong with men that they don't understand how women talk?
Now I want to know how did stink fish end up sending me to Walmart Twice in an hour, and how did I return FOOD for FOUR Days and come back home with 2 rugs, a Coffee mug and a 2 Kaiser rolls that were never on the shopping list until AFTER I bought Bad Fish. Why did I now smell the fish in the store? or putting it in the car?
MadsupershopperSnapper Shopped for an hour and came home minus a whole of of $$$$$$
and reeling from sticker shock at prices that are leaping by dollars not pennies.
I bought a package of Talapia Fish and when I took them out of the car and into the house the fish stunk to high heaven, maybe even higher.
Bob said What is that Smell?
I said its the &^$%# Fish, now I have to go back to Wal-Mart and return it.
I brought everything in the house, harnessed Beau and took him for his walk, came home and drove to Walmart all in a HUFF. As I walked in the door I thought OH NOOOOOOOOOO I left the receipt on the counter. I carried the stinking rotten fish up to the Customer service desk and Linda, who has been there for 25 years said You didn't have to bring the fish, just your receipt will do next time.
I said Linda I left the receipt home on the counter. She said give me the fish and I need the receipt.
I said it was only 40 minutes ago, on my debit card.
She said put your card in the machine, I did and she said what wast the price, I said 12.80.
She said was it Tapia? I said yes, she said ok, its back on your card.
Did you know if you go in same day they can pull up what you bought and look at it?
They can also print another receipt. But they don't WANT TO.
She knew I have shopped there very Saturday for 25 years and did it for me.

Are you wondering why all this when there is a rug above?
WELL a few more WORDS and you will know.
I wanted more fish but could not make myself buy from what was there, even though I have bought it for years and never had it be bad. I had one thing I had forgotten and one that I did not know I needed so went to the aisle to get that item and in so doing I passed the rug aisle and
there they were... Rugs for the kitchen. Note the photo of me in the new dress is to dress up the ugly photo.
Hi, I got a new house dress. I wear these around the house and since there is not that much to post about these days, I figured out that any time I need something to tell you about I just hit Amazon and here it is. No I am not praying in the last collage bottom right.
I was trying to show the top of the dress and for some reason holding the camera down in front of my stomach makes my head look up. HEH HEH HEH
I like this because its soft and swishy and comfy and I can take the garbage out or get the mail without causing passing traffic to crash.
Bob says I remind him of Blanche, of Golden Girls.
I might agree if I had some big shoulder pads. HEH HEH HEH
