Why is the left terrified of taxpayer funded options for schools?

Private schools would be cheaper for the taxpayers. Give each student a voucher equivalent to the cost of government education, and let the parents decide. I don't see the threat.

If you want your child to go to a government school with metal detectors and cops, then send them there.

If you actually care about your kids and want them to excel, then send them to a private school.

When I was a wee lad, Christmas was so very exciting. We had snow, Christmas trees, and we even got to decorate the tree.

Fast forward to this government freak show we have today, and having a Christmas tree in class will probably land you on a terrorist watch list. How did we allow this to happen?

Patti Jo, I remember you from the past. I remember that you hold a black belt in cooking and nutrition.
So I've been on a gluten-free diet. I would love to hear your thoughts on the subject.

@JimBeam stock up on gluten free flours and learn to bake

I bought some gluten-free bread and it tasted like a brick. Lol

I just go without flour now.

@JimBeam Costco has a couple of types of gluten-free breads, pita bread and some square buns that are really good. I made grilled cheese sandwiches from both of them. But I also make a Wonder Bread mini waffle that makes a good sandwich or burger. I bought a mini waffle maker and it’s about the right size to use for bread. I make my own waffles , pancakes, muffins etc too

Patti,

I remember one or two Thanksgivings ago. You told me you were going to take it easy, and not cook much.

Then you proceeded to tell me the 13 thousand things you were making. lol
But........I guess if you used to make 45 thousand things.......13 thousand would be a walk in the park.

But my real question wasn't about what to cook, but more about whether a non-gluten diet is beneficial or not.

I learned about this from a radio show. He said that if we ate the right things, we could live to be 150.

I'll give you the link if you want it.

@JimBeam Yes post the link. I started gluten free due to pains in my joints which would get worse the more I ate wheat products and also barley. Took 2 weeks going off of a gluten for the pain to stop (felt like a needle in my hip joint making it very uncomfortable to walk around especially to go to stores etc). I also have some digestive issues with it and need to be very careful to avoid it due to that.

@JimBeam I am ordering this book. This woman was a Pharmacy Representative up until the year 2000 when she made a decision to speak out about the medical industry. In a video I watched last week she speaks about how we should start having better diets and lifestyle choices instead of getting on pharmaceutical drugs to treat every condition. She also has a website.

He wants you to eat six eggs per day.
He says that cholesterol is your friend.
No sugar
No oils (except butter)
I'm going to leave it at that, because I'd rather have you evaluate this, than tell you what I think.

cherokeepatti · 61-69, F

@JimBeam Eggs have lecithin in them which helps to emulsify the cholesterol. But I don’t know many people who want to eat 6 of them a day. I can handle 2 a day most days but even then not every day. Nothing wrong with olive, avocado or coconut oil. Coconut oil has germ killing acids in them and is good for the metabolism (MTC oil). People are having problems with grains because eating a lot can be inflammatory. Plus they are messing with the genes and then using Round-Up spray on most of them. Round Up spray is corrosive to the digestive system. I think that’s a big part of the gluten problem these days.

@cherokeepatti

Wow, you really know your stuff.

@JimBeam I have always had a sensitive stomach. I’d have headaches when I was little and be given an aspirin and it would make me throw up. I don’t take any of the OTC painkillers that are recommended for pain and arthritis because of it. I think people with digestive systems that are already sensitive have a much greater risk of having gluten-intolerance later on. The chemicals being used on the grains (and sugar cane too) are likely to be behind a lot of it.
