Hey, you San Diego folks....

Give me a holler. Diagnosed last week. Wheeee! I have discovered Pei Wei already =) but looking for other eats, events, etc. I was thoroughly traumatized last weekend on a two-day trip to Phoenix trying to eat out. *whew*! I've been to the support group site, but they meet pretty infrequently, and at times I can't usually make.

Anybody going to hit up whole foods next Saturday for gluten-free tasting?

Ok, back to studying my cookbooks intensely. :blink:

Diagnosed 2/12/09 by biopsy after years of anemia, neuropathy, dizziness, brain fog, pain and more.
Negative blood tests (following gluten light diet)

Still healing with time, harmony, and good food.

glad to see other san diego newbies...didn't know about the tasting, would enjoy the next one

I too am studying my new gluten-free manuals and made some fairly decent cookies yesterday...got to find a better flour for baking! Did see a recipe for making my own multi-purpose flour...going to try in the next few days.

Yay, three of us. =) haha...I'm sure there are more. I've picked up a couple of good cookbooks since my dx in February. Just went to Disneyland yesterday....they were AWESOME! They have a list of foods you can eat, and the chefs come out to talk to you when you request gluten free.

I had a bad experience at my last Pei Wei outing =( but, I'm considering trying PF changs. I've heard good things about them recently! Shopping at Henry's has been great, too now that they have gluten-free labels up.

I'm considering going up to the Celiac conference in Pasadena next month since it's so close.... http://www.celiac.or...ference2009.php
