these bars are gluten-free and DF, not sure if they are making eggs for easter or not.

I would beware of those! Some are sweetened with malted grain and it says on some of the packages they can not guarantee that they are gluten free.

I make my own chocolates using molds and Enjoy Life Chocolate chips. It's easy to do using the microwave. Simply heat the chips on 1/2 power, stirring every 30 seconds or so. You want to get them to the point where they are starting to melt. Then melt the rest of the way by simply stirring. I do mine in a large glass measuring cup.

Use a smallish spoon to fill your molds, unless of course you have a large mold! Be careful not to overfill. You can even buy little squared of colored foil to wrap the candies in. I don't have any egg molds. They were out at the time I ordered mine. I do have small bunnies and some flowers though.

One of my daughters is gluten and dairy free and the other is dairy free. I went into the store (VT) and they were very helpful. They had a book in the store that listed every ingredient in everything they sell. She could tell me exactly which chocolates were dairy and gluten free. I bought several things for my girls though I don't recall that I got any eggs (I don't have them in front of me now). I know that I did get chocolate bunnies though. Their chocolate is delicious. If you go to their site, there's a phone number listed. I assume if you call they can tell you which chocolate is gluten and dairy free (I don't see a listing on the website) and then you could order directly from them or find a store near you that carries them.

Does that help?

My son is also gluten and dairy free. Dark chocolate is naturally dairy free - if you go to your health food shops they will have dark chocolate eggs and many of them will have it marked on the egg that it is both gluten and dairy free. Dark chocolate is slightly bitter but still sweet and my son loves it! Make sure that it has a high percentage coca and that will ensure it is dairy free but ask the assistants to make sure.

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy!

      I checked consumer labs that I'm a member of they independently check products for safely and claims the wolfs was rated great and bobs redmill buckwheat cereal. Ultra low gotten no dangerous levels of arsenic heavy metals, mold, yeast etc. plus they mention to refrigerate. I wonder if the raw buckwheat they rinse bc it's not toasted like kasha. Toasted removes the grassy taste I have to try the one you mentioned. I also bought Qia which is a quinoa mixed got great reviews.
