Somehow, somewhere, I cc'd myself or something this past weekend.
My home is gluten free, my kids are gluten free, even my dog is gluten free. I bought myself a mini BBQ so I can enjoy hanging out with friends and family, which I used, and loved. I nearly- neurotically prepared everything from scratch for our outings this weekend, in my gluten-free kitchen, brought my own utensils everywhere, you name it, I think I covered it!
Obviously I missed something, and I know these things are bound to happen, but the sense of defeat after all the extra effort feels pretty epic tonight! I don't love whining, but getting glutened sucks!

If you over-salt a dish while you are cooking, that's too bad. Please recite with me the real woman's motto: 'I made it, you will eat it and I don't care how bad it tastes!'-unknown
(((((((HUG)))))))) poor baby! everything's gonna be ok..
my first camping trip i agonized and sterilized and brought everything but the kitchen sink! still got glutened.
my first trip to my old home town in nj - we agonized and sterilized and on the last day, my husband says 'why are you rubbing your head? do you have a headache? - yup, got glutened - i even figured it out that i did it to myself (chose the wrong pan to broil shrimp - one of those ceramic coated broiler pans at my bff's house. rookie mistake!!) good thing we were going home the next day. i popped half a xanax and mercifully slept for the 12 hour ride.
feel better - you are not alone! ((((((extra hugs))))))
