My Daughters Birthday Party

We had a birthday party for our daughters last Saturday, they are 7 years old.

we invited 35 guests, only family, and no one has celiac, except for me, but I decided to prepare only glutenfree food, so I could also eat and enjoy.

it was dinner, which included few salds, muffins with cheese and olives, vegetables casserole and for dessert cakes.

everyone ate and enjoyed the food, no one asked me any question, except for my cousin that asked me if the muffins are glutenfree, she couldn't believe that :o .....

what I'm trying to say is that glutenfree food can be tasty like regular food, and even more.

my hubby likes to taste new things, and he tastes everything I make, on the other hand my daughters don't want to try, but they are kids.

I had celiac when I was a baby up to 8 years old, than I started to eat everything according to Dr. orders, I ate everything with gluten up to 29.6 years old, and since than I'm eating glutenfree food again (I'm having glutenfree diet for 9 months). :rolleyes:

Thanks for posting this! I'm so glad to hear it went well. I'm planning a gluten-free birthday for my soon to be 4 year old. I want her to be able to have EVERYTHING at her party (even though she and I are the only ones with Celiac)! :)

For the 1st birthday party post-diagnosis, I hadn't experimented much with cakes and such, so we had a "Hawaiian" theme and did ice cream sundaes. I took my 5yo dd to the store and let her pick out a cart-full ;) of gluten-free toppings and set up a small table so all the kids (ages 4-6) could make their own--it was a HUGE hit!!!

I like the Pamela's Chocolate cake mix. It is fabulous. I'm not sure if it has other allergens in it or not but it is worth checking out!

1/2 cup of milk

1/4 cup of oil

2 eggs

1/2 teaspoon of oregano

salt and pepper

1/2 cup of Bulgarian cheese (salty cheese)

The Preparation Technique:

to heat in advance the oven on 200 degrees Celsius

in a big bowl to put all of the ingredient except for the Bulgarian cheese (salty cheese)

to mix it well

than to crumble the Bulgarian cheese (salty cheese) into the mixture

and to mix it gently some more.

to pour it into baking dish of muffins and to bake it for 20-30 minutes up to gilding.

Hey,

I don't have any other allergies, but if you want some other recipes, I'll be happy to give you. of course, it depends on your other allergies.

Goodluck...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I take both Benfotiamine and TTFD. You might want to start with the Benfotiamine for a few days and then add in the TTFD. You can look for NeuroMag (Magnesium Threonate). A magnesium glycinate is fine, too. Doctor's Best is a good brand. Don't take more than 300mg total per day of magnesium or it may have a laxative effect. Be sure...

      Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine has 100MG of Ben and 25 of Thia..... Do you think this is the one I should take or Objective Nutrients Thiamax (TTFD) which has 100MG Thiamine. How much magnesium should I look for? I take the womens 50+ multivitamin since consumerlabs stated and tested that it has the right amount of vitamins and not too much for...

      Glutened

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar. 2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo. .horrendous stomach pains, My hair was wet fro...

      Yes, do take your B Complex with Benfotiamine or Thiamax. Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins in the B Complex to make energy and enzymes, so best to take them together earlier in your day. Taking them too close to bedtime can keep you too energetic to go to sleep. The Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine is Benfotiamine and...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I looked further into Thiamax Vitamin B1 by objective nutrients and read all the great reviews. I think I will give this a try. I noticed only possible side affect is possibly the first week so body adjusts. Life Extensions carries Benfotiamine with Thiamine and the mega one you mentioned. Not sure if both in one is better or seperate. some reviews state...

How much magnesium should I look for? I take the womens 50+ multivitamin since consumerlabs stated and tested that it has the right amount of vitamins and not too much for men and doesn't have BHT which has shown to cause liver cancer in animals. I was never big with multivitamins as well as doctors I just read when I was first going gluten free to take a multi but I think I will stop them and work on trying the super B Thia and Ben, Mag.

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar.   2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo.  .horrendous stomach pains,  My hair was wet from sweat every part of my body was wet. What an awful experience, just had a bad headache today  fortunately.    Is their any products/pills anyone takes if they have realised they have just been glutened to make the symptoms a little less worse.  thanks

      Yes, do take your B Complex with Benfotiamine or Thiamax.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins in the B Complex to make energy and enzymes, so best to take them together earlier in your day.  Taking them too close to bedtime can keep you too energetic to go to sleep.   The Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine is Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride, another form of thiamine the body likes.  The Thiamine HCl just helps the Benfotiamine work better.   Read the label for how many milligrams are in them.  The Mega Benfotiamine is 250 mgs.  Another Benfothiamine has 100 mgs.  You might want to start with the 100 mg.    I like to take Thiamax in the morning with a B Complex at breakfast.  I take the Benfotiamine with another meal.  You can take your multivitamin with Benfotiamine at lunch.   Add a magnesium supplement, too.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make some important enzymes.  Life Extension makes Neuro-Mag, Magnesium Threonate, which is really beneficial.  (Don't take Magnesium Oxide.  It's not absorbed well, instead it pulls water into the digestive tract and is used to relieve constipation.)  I'm not a big fan of multivitamins because they don't always dissolve well in our intestines, and give people a false sense of security.  (There's videos on how to test how well your multivitamin dissolves.).  Multivitamins don't prevent deficiencies and aren't strong enough to correct deficiencies.   I'm happy you are trying Thiamax and Benfotiamine!  Keep us posted on your progress!  I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.

I will do further research but I appreciate the wonderful explanation you provided on Thiamine.
