I Need A Gluten Free Hug!

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!

-rant complete- ;)

(((((((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))))))

      Nausea

      Welcome to the forum. Is the nausea associated with eating certain foods, or anything else in particular? Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet...

      The Happy Tart review

      Absolutely my point with Kerrigan, the owner. She stood to secure many years of faithful patronage by simply inviting us in for a pastry or lunch. Or by simply producing another $50 e-card based on trust. We would have been highly satisfied. We are limited to a few restaurants in the area, and that would have been one. It was very disappointing, esp to my...

      The Happy Tart review

      You would think any business would see the wisdom of honoring a $50 gift certificate on the basis of customer satisfaction alone, apart from any questions about software glitches.

      When my wife attempted to open the online card in the store with a cashier, it would not work. We then showed the owner the link to the card, the online receipt that I got upon purchase, and even my bank statement confirming the purchase. That did not satisfy her, since she said she needed the link to open to reveal the gift ID num. They even admitted they had a systems problem around that time.
