Loving My Family

[cap6]

We recently moved and various family members are due to visit this summer.  The first group was just   here for over a week, my adopted daughter and her children (9, 15, 17, 18).  We provided all the food and the only problem was there was the expense of all the g.f. bread they consumed!  I did buy separate mayo & mustard for them as we had regular hot dog buns one evening and no one had a problem with keeping the buns outside by the campfire ring. (G.F. hot dog buns for teenage boys with hollow legs are waaaay to expensive)     Next morning the kids were making tuna sandwiches for our picnic lunch when the oldest remembered that they couldn't use the "group" mayo for my tuna.  All four kids came to a halt as they pondered over the dilemma.  What an awesome group of kids.  They dashed for a fresh can of tuna, my special mayo and fresh fork for my fixings!   They wrote my name on the baggie so there would be no mistakes.  Even the 9 yr old "got" it.    I love my family!!!  Thanks for letting me brag a bit.

I love my family, too. My son made me my favorite cake for Mother's Day, coconut, all from scratch and gluten free. They respect my gluten free table in the kitchen, but I look with envy on families that maintain a completely gluten free kitchen for their loved ones and plan meals for them. That is not happening here! Oh well, I love them anyway!
