Having just been confirmed that I have Celiac Disease a few days ago, the doctor had me make an appointment with a nutritionist which will be this coming Thursday. The nutritionist is having me make a list of foods that I eat and like. As I was making this list it occurred to me that many.....MANY of these foods I will no longer be able to eat and that makes me very sad. I think of going to IGGY's and having clam cakes and chowder....that luscious New England chowder...thick and creamy white, so thick you can stand your spoon up in the bowl...I can't imagine having to eat Manhattan chowder!!! WOW!!! A Red Sox fan having to eat something from Yankee territory??? It's a SACRALIGE!! They will ban me from Boston! lol....and those clam cakes....and fish and chips, pasta with alfredo sauce.....my mom's pork pie....maybe she will be able to make a gluten-free crust?....meatloaf....the only thing I make well...(are there gluten-free bread crumbs?)....and desert.... Dunkin' Donuts....cakes....chocolate chip cookies from Meeting Street Cafe'....so warm and soft and chewy....and M & M's.... Well...it will be a definite lifestyle change for my junk food eating habits....all for the better I'm sure....So, today I will be going grocery shopping and looking for gluten-free things to get me started in this new lifestyle, but in the back of my mind....will be thoughts of sugarplums dancing in my head. But first I must finish my laundry.
